Every now and then, models contact me keen to redo portfolios or perhaps shoot something that is missing in their current one. I love the chance to be a little creative, as the idea is to try different ideas to show the versatility of the model. Paul Nikki popped into my Northampton studio for a photo shoot to have a portfolio update and a bit of collaborative photoshoot. Tattooed heavily and with a dimple chin of a 40s film star, it was a fabulous shoot.

We played around with coloured gels (very much in love with these right now) and used various lighting set ups. The shoot was over before I knew it and editing happened pretty much soon after. Paul Nikki can be found on purpleport should you wish to book him yourself for a shoot.
Enjoy a few snippets of it:

Playing with the Lensbaby 3G again for some serious distortion. I love this one. I love how the light captures Paul’s face.

A natural almost untouched headshot of Paul. A bit Christian Bale if you ask me…
