Description: 
General view. This work explores the relationship between movement and fashion. Entitled 'PRIMA', meaning 'first', the project is based on the movements and shapes created by the human body. The intention was to capture the fluidity and capability of the human form whilst retaining sophistication, poise and agility. The project shows the development of work from dance photography to the extension of my interest of fashion photography. I have used a variety of models, locations and themes and the work is consistently fashion and dance orientated; the blend between fashion, dance, the body and movement; portrays power and strength, creating visually contrasting and aesthetically pleasing imagery. "To dance is to be out of yourself. Larger, more beautiful, more powerful.. This is power, it is glory on earth and it is yours for the taking" ― Agnes De Mille
