BTS: Full Throttle/ Sport and Custom Motorcycles

Today was my second time shooting at Full Throttle in Dukinfield with the incredible Lens of a Moose, and I had an absolute blast. I got the opportunity to work with a group of fantastic models, take on my first shoot of the year (finally!), and found out what cold really feels like. If you check out the Full Throttle link, you might be fast enough to see a photo of yours truly adorning the Facebook page banner! As soon as the edited, watermarked photos make their way to me, I will write another post showing the finished product of today's hard work, but until then I'm giving you a sneaky peek behind the scenes.


Moose shooting Natalie on the most stunning black and chrome bike I ever saw. It has been requested by Moose that in the event of his death, there are bikes aplenty at his funeral.



Natalie and Lens of a Moose



Jay showing us all how to booty pop on a bike. He prefers to teach through example..



Bea Noir shows us all how it's done! Loved watching her, I definitely learnt a thing or two!



Raw shot of Leah looking deceivingly 'girl-next-door'!

I had such a fantastic time today, and hope I can show you the final shots soon! Massive thanks to Full Throttle and Sport and Custom Motorcycles for dressing myself and the other ladies, who all did an amazing job of warming up this cold February day! Please check out the Lens of a Moose site for their full portfolio, contact, FAQs and details on upcoming projects! They are a dream to work with and I look forward to many more shoots with Moose and Jay in the future.

Disenchanted's First Gig!

Sorry for the late post, but better late than never I suppose! Last Saturday was Kyle's first gig, and it really could not have gone any better for them. It was a fantastic night out at Retro Bar in Manchester, and it was actually pretty cool to see him perform live properly- the only other gig they ever did was an acoustic set in summer for charity, but unfortunately I missed that due to work. They definitely wowed the crowd, and I don't think anybody there was expecting them to do so well on their first gig. Super proud girlfriend right here!


l-r: Kyle, Hannah, Mitchell (hidden on drums), Ryan, Ed



I went home with the guitarist...



Shameless post-gig car selfies (Luce is on the left)

The setlist for the gig was as follows:

1. Deliver Us From Evil*
2. Little Miss Misery
3. Sightless
4. Decode**
5. Human Nature
6. Porcelain


*Unrecorded Song
**Paramore cover (It was acknowledged that it is the typical female-fronted band to cover)
