ASOS.COM photoshoot for IKANDI!

We recently did another shoot for IKANDI Jewellery a boutique jewellery range which always has a fab new range on offer to add a little sparkle & style to any outfit whilst keeping on trend! Take a look!- http://www.ikandi.co.uk/

The shots we did were specifically for the fashion website ASOS.COM -A renowned online fashion website selling all the latest designer jewellery, bags, dresses & more! 

The location for the shoot was ''The cwrt bleddyn hotel & spa'' near usk south wales, an absolutley beautiful hotel with so much to offer wether its for a night away, weekend or for a wedding-they really are extremeley accomodating and helpful! Feel free to take a look at-  http://www.cwrtbleddyn.co.uk/

When it comes to fashion based shoots hair & makeup is key to the overall look.  The hair inspiration for the models came from the 'valentino' catwalks using french plaits & buns. The makeup inspiration was inspired by a recent prada photoshoot using smokey dark, dramatic eyes, and rich lip tones. Both the hair & makeup results were fantastic and really did complete the overall look! All jewellery was modelled by Daemonet Jordan & Angharad Williams.

We also did some shots for PERFECT DAY BRIDAL WEAR on the same day/same location- PERFECT DAY BRIDAL WEAR is fab little wedding boutique based in south wales to make use of the location. The owner Gillian is a really lovley lady who was so friendly & welcoming, id definatley recommend them highly for anyone getting married. Gillian has a fab range of wedding dresses, prom wear, bridal tiaras and accesories as well has a tailor who has numerous suits on offer for your groomsmen. Wedding wear was modelled by Daemonet Jordan & Ollie Davey.

Luckily the weather on the day was glorious!..even if it was a little chilly, the sun was out! Which in wales is a rare occasion!! This meant we were able to not only use the rooms throughout the hotel, but we were also able to take advantage of the stunning grounds!
We had hoped to get some shots in their gorgeous 'cwrtium spa' which is a greecian style room with a beautiful marble pillared jacuzzi, & heated pool- Unfortunetley due to how hot it was in the room the camera lense constantly steamed up, making it impossible! Lol. Never the less there were lots of fantastic areas inside and outside to make use of, and we definatley did just that! 

After a 10am-6pm day of hair, makeup, wardrobe changes, shooting, & jewellery changes we finally were able to finish.
Needless to say everyone was exhausted & ready for a good sleep but the shots were definatley worth the very long day!
Better still, a couple of weeks later the completed shots were published to asos.com!
