Amanda is another singer from the TV show I have been styling “Urban School”. She’s got an amazing voice! Something between Beyonce and Keri Hilson…

This shoot was a bit of a challenge as Amanda, like most woman who are not a size 8/36, was worried about the clothes I was going to pick for her. It’s true that sometimes it can be hard to find nice clothes in bigger size, as what could look great in a 8 won’t often look as good in a 12 if you go to the wrong shop. It all depends on how they grade they patterns…
In my opinion one of the best shop for larger size is BCBG Max Azria… It’s a little bit more expensive that most high street shops but it’s worth it as the clothes are well cut and don’t loose their shape from the 6 to the 14.

This beautiful lemon dress is one of the 5 outfits I picked out for her… She was happily surprised by my selection and felt really comfortable in them… No need to say that she looked amazing…

When I picked out this floral dress for the shoot, I immediately knew it would look great on Natalie. We started the session with this dress, but as it is the case in most photo shoots, the first pictures were not the best. It always takes a little time for the photographer and the model to bond, and this is usually what makes the difference… The originals pictures were taken indoors, but this one was shot on my terrace after a few hours talking, posing, laughing… (and a very good sandwich!)

To be honest if I was taller I would have bought one for myself, but I’m not so… Anyway I think it’s a perfect dress for the summer, or if you’re living in Belgium, for a few days in July and another few days in August as if it’s like today, I am pretty sure it will be raining most of the time…

Natalie is a young and fresh singer I met on the belgian tv show I am currently styling, Urban School (I will tell you more about it later). I had to style her and take pictures of her pretty face for the belgian magazine Flair. So I improvised a little photoshoot at my place… No need for artificial light as the sun was at his brightest. We had a really nice time, mademoiselle likes to play with the camera. Natalie is obviously very pretty but also very talented, she’s got a beautiful and suave voice, perfect for jazzy sounds. You’ll see more of her shortly…
