I styled a photoshoot for Lockdown Models in Cork with the extremely talented photographer and stylist Sarah Blake a while back. I just got a few of those photos now and I am blown away by them. The models were such a delight to work with, you would never guess that these girls are new models being signed to the agency and were such professionals with really different but unique looks.

This is my favourite picture of the day. Laura Jane O’ Rahilly is the future face of the modelling world. She has the most incredible face…her piercing ice blue eyes and full mouth are just breath-taking! She can pull off so many looks, styles and poses with such a natural flair. I am so happy I got to work on Laura’s first shoot with her before she becomes famous!

For one of her beauty shots, I put silver butterflies in her hair framing her spectacular face. They looked so cool amongst her auburn hair.

I actually got these butterflies to use as Christmas decorations ( I don’t really do traditional Christmas decorating!) and I have used them since for making cards, putting amongst fresh flowers in a vase, wrapping around jars for candles and used them in my own hair. They are so handy and oh so pretty and I got them in my local arts and craft store for about €2.99.
