I've shot with Wendy 4 or 5 years ago, and I remember how inspired I felt being in her company. Certain people just have an ability to take a blank canvas and make the most incredible art from it. Wendy is one of those. She is one in a million - a unique talent. An inspiration.
At a time in my life when I felt a lack of inspiration, I took a trip to Liverpool, a city I have a large love for, and arranged a fantastic day of shooting with Wendy.
Wendy is superb company, I love being around her, I seem to just get what she says, We share a lot of similar views on most topics that's come up when with her. She took me to Formby National Park, despite the forecast saying it would rain. When we got there, yes, the heavens opened haha. Did Wendy see this negatively? No not at all. She enthusiastically posed and in a very busy area of the park, as it rained, Wendy took full advantage of it being just for us thanks to the rain! As I'm standing in front of her, feeling grateful to be shooting these incredible images of her - I truly see her worth and what she brings to shoots.
Wendy should be cherished as she's above and beyond those around her for creativity.
After the outdoor masterclass, Wendy then ran a bath, and created a scene that can only be described as a movie set. UV lights, MU and clothing that pops colours. I really can't take any credit for any of this whatsoever. This is what it's like being in the company of a soul that has the most incredible creative brain.
As both times I've shot with Wendy, I came away feeling ive been taught a lesson from a master of someone who knows a completely different level of creativity than me.
Wonderful host, super talented person, and just a really really lovely lady that I feel so so lucky to have images with.
WOW WOW WOW
