Here are some images from one occasion in November when Gerard and I ventured into the woods to explore the mysterious magic of autumn.
For me autumn has a power like that of spring – a painful magic that awakens memories of previous cycles in a way that only reality (as opposed to imagination) can. Unlike summer and winter which invite me to forget, autumn and spring invite me to remember. These images convey many different feelings, as I try to hold onto life before the plunge into winter…

By the way, these images are available to buy as prints, postcards and some other slightly silly things from Redbubble. Just follow the link in each image caption. Or check out the collection here. 🙂
I said let’s go out and shoot some summer street fashion, so we did! I knew I needed to absorb some of September’s last rays to tide me over into the autumn. The dappled sunlight beneath the trees was dazzling and delightful.
As always, you can find a huge range of my most recent work on Patreon where I share things in greater quantities and more intimate glimpses into my creative life.
From a recent photoshoot by Gerard, styled and edited by me.
I’m very happy with this green/aquamarine/cerulean/teal dress I bought just a few days before. The day after this garden shoot, I whisked us off to the seaside to see how the dress would fare with the billowing British winds of Broadstairs.
September 2020.
