Today was a shoot for the Collectif ASOS online marketplace, with the lovely SINderella Rockafella. One of the Collectif stores is located in Camden Stables Market, a really exciting buzzing place with all sorts of niche shops and eateries, and with plenty of potential locations within a hundred yards. Entering the store for the first time I was taken aback to be greeted by a dramatically larger than life version of a picnic image I had shot a while ago with Natasha Olrog and Poppy Scarlet.

Our plan was to find an uncluttered outdoor location to shoot a number of outfits…but what had not been factored in was the weather. It was bitterly cold, and no sooner had the shoot started than so did a steady drizzle! Fortunately SINderella was able to change in the store changing room, and was primped by Nicole Grzywok (who spent her time outside holding a brolly over SINderella, or myself!)

Nicole had earmarked as back-up, an area protected from the elements, but by the time the shoot got underway this was like rush hour on the tube…so we ended up outside, away from the crowds. Despite the soul-sapping bitter cold, a very, very chilly SINderella posed as if it were the height of summer (the images are not quite large enough to see her goose-pimples!). You can see below how well she did.
You would never know it was raining…although at each outfit change I was having to remove water droplets from the lens! And if you want to see the entire shoot, you can check out the great outfits on the Collectif ASOS site
