I work at primary school and so thrilled with your awesome photos. This one is just …. BIG WOOOOW!!!!!!!!! Your ideas are so great and spontaneous.. I would like so much to see similar photo with kid envolved!

Is that possible..? 🙂

Best wishes and thank you for sharing your work!

In a way, I wish this was a self portrait as I think you being the character would have matched the drawing in the book… and well, you know I love self portraiture the most, but your model has a wonderful whimsical and nostalgic look about her expression here that I love it anyway 😉

I think if I had to consider my favourite childhood storybook character, then it would be Cinderella. Having been bullied and often teased as a child, I felt I identified with her character the most…

One of my favourite characters now would probably be Arwen from Lord of the Rings. I feel much of my work is often inspired by Lord of the Rings as a result.

I too love to read. It helps me escape when times get rough, it teaches me new lessons, it lets me know that I’m not alone in this world. A book can be a magical thing. That’s why I decided to become a writer.

Aww what a great one! Isn’t it funny how very often “children’s books” are so poignant for adults.
