Sept 2017, think it's about time I sat down and wrote something other then ... *I am a female photographer*
Well D'oh, this lard arse ain't no model, so why else would I be here :P 

If you haven't already seen my work, well hello there, where the hell have you been? I have become more known for #dancersofcornwall over my Alice Speller work, (I realised a few days ago how naff the website was so have taken it down) one thing I am quite happy about. (seriously need to work on that model stuff though, any takers daft enough want to work with me TFP, get in touch, buttons that way some where >> )

In August 2016 I decided to embark on a photography path totally different to newborns, no more being peed on for me (don't have a wardrobe big enough too allow for the clothing)
Instead I started stealing ballerina's from various places and taking them to the most random places I could find, (No, I didn't steal them by bundling them in the back of a car, it was all done proper style, honest!)

Places such as Palace Theatre in Plymouth, National Maritime Museum in Falmouth, Sainsbury's (I did say random!), Bodmin Jail, a library, Bodmin Steam Railway,  then the obv streets, Plymouth, Bude, Truro, Newquay, etc etc.
Over the past year I have been published in the Cornish Guardian (front page baby!!!) Devon Life (small thing... grrr better then nothing!!) 
Worked my arse off towards getting my first gold award with a registered body, ( as well as bronze and silvers)
Nearly been run over 21878 time's, been photobombed by 453253 members of the public, been chased off locations, been stalked, laughed till we have had tears, fallen down & over in water/grass/trees/walls (delete as required!)
Learnt dance moves, attempted dance moves to demonstrate what I need from the dancers, then realised a mum is there with a camera and legged it before remembering I am there to shoot, 
Have my work on display in a Cornish School, 
and here I am into the very start of year 2 of this world, I cannot wait to see what it does, where it takes me, oh and the dancers... anyone want to travel?! I want to travel, I have a used passport that's due to expire in a couple of years (could be a year now, been a while since I looked at it last....)
I talk a lot of cr*p, I don't act professional, I like to be relaxed, know what I want, and will get it, even it takes hours, I want my dancers, my models to be comfortable, I just ask you listen if I request you do something, and go with the flow, so we both end up with amazing professional result's, even if it took being knee deep in the sea fully clothed to get that shot!

Boils down to : I specialise not generalise in this world, you won't see from me specialising in a dozen genres, you will find one portfolio of dance on #dancersofcornwall [link removed] and when I can, you will find Alice Speller Photography with a portfolio of women, teenagers, and tweens.   oh yea, I am pretty naff at replying to emails, bare with me, I need to make this place a daily fix, poke me (though not too hard)  if you need a reply and I haven't!

OH and how the hell do you get that thing to link to my own FPIs, or is that not one to be done?
