ALOHA TATÁ S/S 14 Campaign

 

Last Christmas during my trip to Spain, I left my hometown for a few days to travel to Asturias and shot the first campaign of forthcoming fashion label ALOHA TATÁ.

I studied my Bachelor Degree in Asturias and I always try to spend some days there every time I travel to Spain. I love Asturias and I loved the location that Aida Menendez, the founder of ALOHA TATÁ , had chosen for the campaign - a beautiful cabin located in a little village close to Ribadesella.

During our early drive from Gijon to the cabin we were crossing our fingers, hoping the weather was nice. It seemed to work. The sun shone all morning and even the temperature wasn't that bad at all for being December 28th!

I shot Sol, whom I had photographed a few times before, inside the cabin and at the beach just next to it. She looked amazing and the clothes and location worked great together.

 

If you've enjoyed this little preview, you can see more photos from the campaign on my website:

2013 in photos

 

I'm not the kind of person who usually makes lists compiling the best of the year, and I don't enjoy that much to look back and see what has happened in 2013, but I thought it would be nice to select a few photos I took during this year and write a little about the story behind them.

2013 has been a good year for my photography. My style has evolved and is now more defined, and I have started to get more paid commissions which, of course, is always good.

Hope you enjoy this selection and I'll see you really soon in 2014 with some new photos!

This is a photo of Daniel, from the first part of my on-going series A Day in Glasgow. I started this project to document and pay homage to a city that inspires me every time I visit it.

This is the last photo I took in my old bedroom in Edinburgh before moving to a new flat. Although the room was quite dark during most of the day, the light in the morning was always beautiful.

I took this photo of my friend Marta when I went to visit my parents in Spain in April. The cherry trees close to my parents' house were blossoming and all the area was really beautiful with the first signs of Spring.

I took this photo of English band Peace for Nylon Guys in Glasgow in February, just the day before my Birthday. This was my first band shoot and also the first time working for Nylon Guys.

This is an image from my editorial After School, which I shot in the area around my flat in Edinburgh with stylist Katherine Whyte, MUA Caron Tait and models Sophie Crooks and Ciara Rafferty. It was my first time using the Contax T2 which I had bought just a couple of weeks before and loved the result!

I took this photo during my trip to Wroclaw, Poland, in October. The block behind the trees is an iconic building of the city, designed by architect Jadwiga Grabowska-Hawrylak in the 1960s. It is part of a 6-building complex known as the ""Wroclaw's Manhattan".

This is a still from my video and personal project 10 Shoegaze Songs. I filmed it over a couple of days when I visited Spain in April using a hi8 camera, which I also used for filming another couple of videos in 2013.

This photo of model Ben Nugent is part of the editorial Pattison Street I shot for menswear website Fucking Young. It was styled by my friend Danielle Coates and was also shot really close to my flat in Edinburgh.

This is another image from my project A Day in Glasgow. The girl in the photo is Penelope Joan Gillies and it was taken just outside Kelvingrove museum.

This is my friend Amalia in her old flat. The image is part of a small lookbook I shot for t-shirt label Makelovelovemake last January.

I toook this photo of Jakub in August. He was, of course, hating having his photo taken but the light was amazing and had to be used...

And this is how I looked like in 2013.

 

Recent publications

 

Over the last month I've had some work published in a couple of magazines. Last Friday I received a copy of the latest issue of Material Girl magazine with my editorial After School in it. It was great to also find Lara Alegre in there with a beautiful editorial. Lara is a Spanish photographer whose work has been published in Girls on Film a few times and whom I met on my trip to Berlin last year.

In this issue there is also work by Girls on Film contributors Flora Deborah and Joseph Wolfgang Ohlert so I'd definitely recommend buying a copy if you can find it in your town!

Here are some photos of the magazine, you can see the rest of the editorial on my website.

I've also had a photo published and I've been interviewed in the "light issue" of Korean magazine AVEC. They chose a photo from my personal series "I Used to Live Here" and asked me a few questions about it and my work. There are also some other familiar photographers in this issue like Katherine Squier and Sandra Eichinger.

And finally, I've decided to use my Instagram account to post some of my work and behind the scenes there. Here's a photo from the shoot for I Heart Magazine in Glasgow last month. The editorial will be out in January!

Last Days of College

Sorry about the lack of updates but I decided to take a little break this summer and spend most of my free time on my side project Future Positive.

I took these photos a few weeks ago and they were published in Bast Magazine. My friend Danielle Coates helped me again with the styling and the model is Anton Jones.

You can see the rest of the photos from the editorial on my website:

After School

A couple of months ago, I shot this editorial and short film here in Edinburgh. It was great to work again with stylist Katherine Whyte - every time I've worked with her the result has been amazing!

Ciara Rafferty @ModelTeam and Sophie Crooks @Colours were lots of fun and were great both on the pictures and the video. Also, Caron Tait (MUA and hair) did an amazing job.

Doldan Sisters x Makelovelovemake

Last Christmas I shot a little lookbook for new label Makelovelovemake, it has taken a while but the photos are finally out.  The models were my friends Amalia and Marta Doldan, whom I had shot many times before so it was fun to spend one day with them making the lookbook.

There are some more photos from the lookbook here on my website!

Have an EWAN day

 

One month ago I had the honour of shooting again for Ewan Clothing. 

Ewan is a Spanish label, based in Asturias, the region where I studied my degree. This label was established in 2007 and has grown and changed a lot since then. What started as a collection of graphic t-shirts has evolved into a great selection of garments and two new collections every year.

While I was studying in Gijón a couple of years ago I shot their F/W 10 campaign so it was great to collaborate with them again and here in Scotland!

This time I prepared a photoshoot for the label in Edinburgh using clothes from their current collection and based around their motto "Have an Ewan Day"

Suburban Dream

 

  

 

 

This is my favourite editorial from everything I've ever shot. It is hard to choose a personal favourite from all your past work but when I was shooting this I knew that the results were going to be good (and I don't usually feel that confident during photoshoots).

This was the second time I worked with stylist Katherine Whyte and MUA Debbie Slater, had done the Halfway House editorial with them a month or so before I shot this one. The first time worked really well but this time worked even better.

Katherine brought these amazing clothes and we drove to Bishopbriggs, just outside Glasgow. I fell in love with the place as soon as I got out of the train, I had always wanted to shoot an editorial with a very suburban feeling.

The styling worked so well with the location and Fern Calderwood from The Model Team was amazing. I had never worked with Fern before, but after these photos I messaged her again and we're planning to shoot a short fashion video in a couple of weeks.

It's been over 3 months since I shot the editorial, but thanks Katherine, Debbie and Fern for an amazing Sunday in Bishopbriggs!

Photography: Igor Termenon

Model: Fern Calderwood @ The Model Team
