Susanna is turning 21!
What better way to celebrate your birthday than getting a hair, makeup and beauty treatment, finished off with a fabulous photoshoot. We caught some beautiful rays on Saturday evening, although it was freezing! Susanna was a real trooper and I didn’t see her shiver once. All hair and makeup was provided by The Juli Anne Health & Beauty Retreat and we just had the shoot in and around the grounds. There were so many great features for shots I would have needed a few more hours to cover them all! Really liked the tyres in the backyard. Something different to try. Susanna did her own styling on the clothes. Loved it.

I remember starting out in photography and being so afraid of the sun. Not knowing how to work around it. Now, I wish for it.x



Bring it…
Love, love, love this set.x







You are so gorgeous here Susanna!

Feel free to wish Susanna a Happy 21st Birthday!

Just come across your blog Paula, some great images.
I’m studying photography at the moment and can only hope to be able to create images like you some day.
How do you meter your camera for shooting into the sun like that? My images would have my subject as a black silhouette.
