I spent today with the very talented Abi Bansal who took some beautiful modelled shots of my jewellery for my new website. It was a bit of an unusual shoot even for Abi, as I asked her to model my jewellery as well as shoot and style it (which incidentally is not something that most people can do)!

I opted for Abi’s Custom Styling Packaging, where she worked with me to create the perfect look and feel for my brand taking into consideration my existing brand identity…it was such a pleasure to see someone so multi-talented at work and you can see the results for yourself. I am very pleased indeed.
