I work with ethical and eco conscious businesses and creatives, within the sustainable fashion space and wider world of environmentalism, bringing the missing spark to their visual and written content. My work spans modelling, sustainable styling, content creation and beyond — all with a slow, thoughtful, and well rounded approach.
Originally based in Wiltshire, England, but now also splitting time in Bangor, Northern Ireland, I’ve modelled for brands featured in the likes of British Vogue, spent 3+ years as a Digital Marketing Exec for Belles and Babes, and spoken at schools and events about accessible and down to earth approaches to personal fashion — for people and the planet.
My work is varied and sometimes niche and honestly, rather hard to explain into a neat introductory paragraph. So, here are some of my favourite projects. But first, some quick directs to different areas of my portfolio if you know exactly what you’re looking for.
