And here are some polaroids from the wonderful woman that is Zoe Wiseman. Zoe is so brilliant to work with - utterly laid back (we'd pause after every single shot to pull out the image, dip it in the bucket... and get excited each time, so it was a very leisurely pace... and cooling off in the swimming pool became the shoot itself!) but happy to direct too, and always has the models' best interests at heart, which doesn't go unnoticed. Half of the roll was of me and half of the very beautiful Meghan (in last shot), who will soon feature here more I'm sure as we also spent a whole load of time shooting together again, including UNDERWATER - that was a really fun challenge for me, and hopefully the images will be very special! We will have to see how the film comes out! Oh, the suspense!
Anyway, I love these! Some are (semi?) solarised, for an extra layer of coolness. Zoe was using a Holga with a Polaroid Back (polaroid Type 85 Pos/Neg film). She solarised the images by peeling the positive away from the negative before it was fully developed and held them to the Californian sun to create the funky stuff. Clever, eh?
