Locations used were Albert Dock And Kings Dock in Liverpool. 
Backdrops included Liverpool Echo Arena  near by wheel and the surrounding features.




























































Pretty Woman And Liverpool III

The objective of “Pretty Woman And Liverpool III”, is to raise awareness for the charity #Bloodwise_uk, formerly known as Leukaemia And Lymphoma Research through “tagging” on social media.
I wanted to depict how women in Liverpool “dress to impress”, and have them posed alongside an iconic landmarks, therefore adding culture sophistication and glamour to the picture.
My continued “Pretty Woman” projects have taught me more about composing two subjects in  images were both background and model have equal prominence and the importance of teamwork between model and photographer, adding a new dimension to my work.

The models, dancers and singers who I have photographed have posed voluntary for me, make up artists have also volunteered to help, venues have not charged for use of premises.

The girls who I have photographed have often booked time of work to attend shoots.

They have added life to my photography and have been an inspiration to me.

Brief

I want to raise more awareness for a charity called #Bloodwise_uk each time a model is “tagged” in my work through Social Media more awareness is raised.
The model in these pictures is Toni Waterson who has also agreed voluntary to become the Face Of My Work.

About The Photographer

I have lived with Multiple Sclerosis since 2001. I have a chaperone who drives me to the destination of each assignment and cares for me when taking pictures and helps up equipment. I use my wheelchair on assignments.

Name Of Model & Good Rapport

Toni Waterson
I have known Toni since October 2013, the first assignment was at the Bluecoat Chambers building, now 18 shoots later (this shoot number 19) we have established good professional rapport. Toni is a fantastic model and dancer who produces great poses and brings emotional impact to the shoot as well, shown particularly in closer head shots (fourth shot down in this link http://liverfocus.blogspot.co.uk/2016/05/toni-waterson-sefton-park-palm-house.html). #top_babe
