Paige S @ Scene

Model Portfolio

Earlier this month I was approached by a young model from Scene Model Management for a portfolio shoot. Her makeup and hair was done by the amazing Penny Antuar who amazes me every time she works her magic. I wanted to try give Paige a variety of new shots for her portfolio. I am into black and white studio shots at the moment so tried to create some different looks from casual soft shots using my multi-coloured tie-dye shorts I picked up in Bali (3 sizes too big for her!) and a plain white T, onto more modern, crisp contrasty images with a sweet black lace top sourced by m stylist Emily Bathgate.

I must admit i am not the biggest studio fan, especially in summer, so had sent Penny a few example water based images that i wanted to try. Being a 30˙ midday sun by the time we finished studio, a pool based shoot was probably not the most well planned out thing to do, but thats what experimental shoots are for aren't they? I can't wait to re-shoot this again and see how i can improve on the shots. For more images visit www.katedrennan.com.

Lupe Fiasco

Lupe Fiasco - Metro City Perth 2010

Lupe Fiasco sent crowds crazy last night as the Chicago sensation performed hits like "Superstar", "Kick, Push" and "Silent Midnight". His stage presence got everyone pumped as he jumped back and forth all over the place with every so often stopping and smiling into the crowd making everyone feel just it was just at them. We Are Lasers Tour came to a close for Perth fans but not before the encore with the huge finish on Daydreamin' where Lupe went onto conducting the Tuesday night crowd in a massive sing along.

Summer/Winter

Fashion Photography Perth:
Here are some images for my Summer/ Winter Shoot I did up North some time ago. It was a beautiful winters day, the water was a tad chills but we carried on without any complaints. The setting was gorgeous and models were fantastic. Models include the amazing Tammy Stone and Blake Taylor @ Viviens, Rebecca O'Donovan and David Grey (unsigned at the time). For lighting i used speed lights and a reflector. My style for the shoot was very crisp sharp edgy images. The lighting would be very harsh and flat for most but I liked it for this shoot. The makeup and hair was done by the talented Lily Webb. Photography and Photo Retouching by Kate Drennan

Equipped with hair colouring and orange roses out of the garden which i changed to pink in post production, we played around with accessories and lighting to come out with some killer shots.
