Dalmatian Print Nails LFW

Inspired by Sophy Robson's team for Topshop Unique at London Fashion Week, I attempted the 'Dalmatian Print' nails. Using a white by Jessica and a black by Jack Wills. Wonder what my yoga class will make of it tomorrow!?

Mode Magazine shoot

Shortlist are launching a new glossy bi-annual men's magazine this March called MODE. My job was to dig my nails into model Sam Way's chest. The face of Paco Rabanne and Diesel campaigns no less. Tough job!

Nails Apricot Punch by Rimmel for that 70's look. Photographer was the lovely Matthew Shave, who features in my set pictures with model Sam Way. The shot was inspired by 70's Denim Aftershave commercial (see link).

Mode is a free magazine and can be picked up at commuter hot spots such as Canary Wharf and Victoria station.

The Times App for iPad

When the Apple iPad first came out I honestly thought it was just another gimmick for the filthy rich! After spending a day testing it for this commercial I was sold. I abhor touching newspapers so The Times app was perfect for me. Sliding through articles, clicking on videos, enlarging pictures...I was hooked!

Watching the commercial now, it's hard to believe I did all the movements on green screen!

Photographer Phil Sills and Malaya Jewellery

Collaborating with photographer Phil Sills was the perfect opportunity to use some gorgeous pieces from Malaya Jewellery, designed by my talented friend Sophie Butler. Phil was looking for a specific look for this shoot and Malaya Jewellery fitted the specification perfectly.
Nails done by me, colour is White on White by Revlon.

Still Life Photographer - D.Gill

The world of hand modelling can get a little strange sometimes. If a hand model isn't threatening to put a cigarette out on your hand then they're claiming to be Kate Moss' hand double! So it's refreshing to work with a photographer who actually appreciates that you're 'normal', whatever that means?! I guess it's relative.

I've worked with David Gill regularly over this last year. As a hand model you tend to go from job to job so it's a real pleasure and novelty to work frequently with the same people, especially ones who work hard and still have time to have a sense of humour. When I'm assigned a job with Mr Gill I always look forward to catching up with both David and Dave, his assistant (yes really!). Check out some of David's still photography that I captured at his studio.

T-Mobile and Orange merger

Diageo

Here I am with hand models Kate Loustau and Chris Lanitis. My hand has the dark nails. I used Jessica's Reward as a basecoat and then Nails Inc Savile Row to contrast with Kate's pink.
