This shoot was a little out of my comfort zone. I mean, as someone who usually creates portraits with an airy, ultra feminine vintage vibe, underneath a motorway bridge doesn't really sound like somewhere you're likely to find me taking photographs, does it?

But hey - a quick portrait session under the M2 on a Wednesday morning was just what I needed, and to say I'm pleased with the results would be an understatement. I feel like these are some of the best, most beautiful portraits I've taken in a while. Ellis makes it easy to create beautiful photographs, but these, I think, are pretty good.
