Perriam Spring/Summer Launch 2016

It was wonderful to be asked to supply Hair and Makeup for PERRIAM's SPRING/SUMMER 2016 Launch brochure and web imagery.  Lovely Christina Perriam has been so crazy busy opening a gorgeous new shop in central Wanaka, I wasn't sure how she found time to travel to Ophir and all around Central Otago's spectacular Rail Trail photographing Sophie in the new Spring/Summer 2016 range.  Shot on location at the DIVINE Lombardy Cottage.

There are some gorgeous colours in this range, luscious pinks and navy's.... put together with softer caramels, cardigans made from pure merino, perfect for these cooler mornings and evenings.  

I do believe that her new shop is opening this week also.  So POP in to Helwick Street, Wanaka for a look. PERRIAM SHOP.  Thank you Carla Munro of Black Robin Creative for pulling this together and also Sophie who was a fabulous model.  :)

Thank you to all who helped on this shoot:

Cromwell - Central Otago

So WOW!!! Central Otago  - we decided to show you off and all that comes with you! In collaboration with a spectacular new website that launches on 01 September 2016;  Silk and Honey, started by the creative genius Carla Munro (Director) of Black Robin Creative. Carla came up with this stunning styled shoot and it was planned and plotted with a few other creative muses in the area.

So off we all trotted to explore a region that I feel warrants more exposure.  Central Otago is just GORGEOUS!.  People should really flock to this region to get some epics shots. OLD WOMAN MOUNTAIN RANGE - Spectacular, fabulous and a little bit different.  The professional team at Heliview Flights know this area like the back of their hands!  They took the team up to a spot only the awesome pilot Richard (please see picture of him below) knows exist. 

Using the Canon5Dmkiii and a whole bunch of other fabulous technological equipment that is a bit long to mention was the lovely Bel Jones - pretty awesome considering this beautiful, pregnant and glowing photographer jumped around in the snow to get such amazing shots of the lovely Kiera McLeod.

The dress was a 10 year old Astra Bridal number worn by Kiera - which is pretty special as it was worn by her Mum.  Thank you Ms Andrea Gooch for all your help and kindness and letting us have it for the day.  Lovely Neda of Pristine Steam Cleaning managed to get the dress primped and primed and honestly looking just like new!

Jenny Clark from Studio 24 as always made the most sumptuous bouquet and hair flowers, comprised of: Freesias, Roses, Ranunculus, Anemones, Chrysanthemum, Spray Carnations and mixed seasonal foliage. 

The drop - Quartz Reef  - oh yes - delicious it was.....  Quartz Reef Methode Traditionelle Brut NV was the perfect tipple for these surrounds.
