The beauty of women was the first expression of my photography.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I was obsessed from the moment I took my first photograph. I wanted to make photography my career.
My beauty icons are women whose images are self-created.
I came to photography by accident.
It wasn't until I realised that I could actually take nice photographs that I started to become passionate about it. I then got a few jobs working for magazines in London, and I would get terribly excited and intense about doing a job and taking photographs and looking through the lens to capture something amazing.
Aside from my modelling, by the early Nineties I was also starting to work as a photographer, which I loved.
Beauty is the first present nature gives to women and the first it takes away.
Even though photographers are only shooting the outside, beauty is more about who you are as a person - the life you lead - not your facade.
Photography was a blessing because it filled my time.
For my first fragrance, I wanted to capture the essence of a woman's strength and beauty.
Photography started as a means of getting reference material for my paintings of nature subjects.
