Earlier this year, I had the pleasure of being introduced to a lovely young new face at Model Team by the name of Lauren Kate Haggarty. Over the course of the following months, I've been privilaged enough to work with this young lady on several occasions. Naturally, as part of being a photographer that deals with fashion, it is always important to establish a good connection with your model - the results always show in the work and that always makes for a happy client.
I met Lauren for the first time in early March. She had been looking for a photographer to help expand her portfolio and have some fun creating images that sourced inspiration from the macabre genius that is Tim Burton. Shortly prior to our shoot, I was working away in London at several fashion events and I was slightly taken a-back and downright delighted that when I returned that Lauren had taken upon herself to help organize both a creative team and deal with sourcing permits for our location to help cut down on my workload. Despite only being eighteen, Lauren had already displayed a refreshingly mature approach to our shoot. Needless to say, on the day of the shoot, I was not surprised to find Lauren to be a very eloquent, conscientious, well-mannered and dedicated lady to the job!

As a person, Lauren has such a natural way with people, combined with her humour and wit - it instantly puts a brand new creative team at ease. As a model, this is such an invaluable skill to have - after all, a good working ethos is absolutely essential to a successful shoot. Lauren is incredibly versatile too - pulling off looks from the very commercial to the darker, more editorial styled work. In fact, if I'm honest, from frame to frame, she reminds me a touch of the legendary Debbie Harry!

Lauren is a true consumate professional. Working with her always leaves
me on a high and I can vouch for every creative team we have also worked
with. I see big things coming her way in 2012 and I recommend you grab
her whilst you still can!
