Inspiration

My photography is inspired by The City Of Liverpool.

Liverpool has a unique blend of Architectural styles, different Cultures And holds a variety of great events.

Objective

The objective of my work is to raise money and awareness for Bloodwise a charity formerly known as Leukaemia And Lymphoma Research.

Pretty Women And Liverpool II

I have had the privilege of photographing local female models and dancers in Liverpool. Venue Managers never charged for the use of premises.

The girls posed voluntary; make up artists volunteered to help as well.

“Tagging” the girls, make up artists, and venues in my photographs on social media, has drawn more attention the objective of my photography. The popularity of Pretty Women And Liverpool encouraged my to produce Pretty Woman And Liverpool II.

Presentation Concept

9 pictures on the display screens form part of Pretty Woman II. The remainder of images on the display screens depict subjects related to Liverpool’s Waterfront and The River Mersey.

The presentation on tables are a variety of different topics that makes The City Of Liverpool very special.

Brief

The objective of the shoot was to raise awareness for @Bloodwise_uk

I am an official supporter of #Bloodwise_uk Top model Toni Waterson has agreed to become “The Face Of My Work”.

Pictures are taken in Liverpool alongside popular landmarks and inside well known interiors. I had photographed architecture for many years and wanted to add a new dimension to my work, highlighting the charity I support to a greater audience.

The more “tags” I generate, “likes” and favourites I receive from Social Media, the more attention is drawn to the charity I support.

In Photographs on Central Library Balcony St Johns Beacon and St Georges Hall are shown in the background and the green folage from the trees in St Johns Gardens.

The interior images (Further below) were taken in The Hornby Library.

Special thanks to Top Model Toni Waterson for posing voluntary

and foir Central Library Liverpool for letting me use the venue.
