Behind The Scenes At A Deadly Photo Shoot

Even in the early hours of a Sunday morning, the Deadly is the female team is able to ooze glamour and class. On Sunday the 15^th of April, our resident photographer, Kevin Mitchell, turned the shop floor into a professional photographic studio in preparation for the most recent photo shoot for the Deadly is the Female website.

Trying out a new light which picks up a lot of intricate detail, Kevin charged into action, taking over 600 shots!

After a little coaching from 'male model' Kevin, the Deadly models Sarah Wingrove, Hannah-Jo Pierce and Lily Knibbs rocked their poses and strutted their stuff.

Many new items were photographed, (which will be coming to the website soon) and some of them caused a bit of a stir amongst the girls, like the red and white polka dot 'Glamour' Dress, modelled here by Hannah and the beautiful coral 'Miranda' Dress modelled by Sarah.

And the stunning 'Dita Dress' modelled here by Lily. The Dita Dress was named after the Burlesque beauty Dita Von Tease, as she was seen wearing it recently. We think Lily models it just as well as Dita, what do you think?

The styling premise for the shoot was 'Big Hair' and red lips and our resident hair and makeup artist, Lolita Noir certainly delivered that with Lily's reto Beehive and Sarah's exaggerated quiff.

Lipstick and Powder were from the long-lasting Besame range which certainly kept to their promise. The 'Besame Red' and 'Redhot red' lipsticks only had to be reapplied once, and that was after the models had eaten! They really are long lasting lip wear.

One of the models remarked that it was just like ‘playing a big game of dress up’ and was having so much fun with the deadly team that it didn’t matter that it was early on a Sunday morning!

Here are a few more shots from the day:
