A Bite of the Big Apple

Back in May I went to New York City and explored as many different places as I could and see as many different levels of the City as possible. My favourites being Williamsburg, Coney Island and this random avenue with all the alternative shops on it. I'm defiantly planning a return trip as I never found 'Shoot the freak' at Coney Island.
Below are a few of my findings drawn out and I hope you like them

A Little More... Attitude Please

  The shoot below was inspired by Illustration Rally who were doing a competition for Red Rock. I originally intended to do a shoot for the competition and draw from the photographs, but my models became unavailable; so I used photographic reference that I already had in my archive.
  I was still really excited and up for doing a shoot so asked my sister to model for me, with the idea that I wanted to go in the Punk direction and these are a few of the photos we created.

Pages from my portfolio

Below are some of the pages from the portfolio that I took to New York.

It was a very nerve racking experience to see what the people in the

industry thought of my work, but over all I received good feedback.
