Adventures of a fashion photographer the glitter bug.

- 

OH BOY, I’M GOING TO FALL IN.’ THOSE WERE the words that went through my head for the entire duration of the shoot. As a fashion and beauty photographer, sometimes we get these wild ideas and can’t wait to execute them, but they turn out to be more challenging than we originally thought.

I’d wanted to do a bathtub shoot for years, but I often asked myself, ‘How do they do that? How do they make it look so good and effortless?’ I’ve seen a lot of photographers do bathtub shoots using milk, flowers, rose petals etc and I knew I wanted to do something different. ‘What about glitter?’ I remember thinking one day.
