MORE OF JASMINE SIRS - MODEL AND STAGE PERFORMER

Jasmine has been mentioned in a previous blog on our 1950s iconic screen star project where she has played a young Elizabeth Taylor.

Jasmine is still of school age but already she is a seasoned performer on the stage and in dance. Her parents admirably, actively manage her development with attention of course to not adversely interfering with her schooling. I have helped in this process and involved her as a model on fashion assignments and to build up a portfolio.

Jasmine has the physical features required as a fashion model in particular her catwalk requirement height but it is her stage experience that helps to create her versatility in front of the camera. I expect her to be a regular model for me.

She is still experimenting and exploring the entirety as a career option but, not least of all, the confidence she is gaining in modeling is already showing and should stand her in good stead when the choices around her future are made.

I would recommend Jasmine for fashion and advertorial photography. For more about Jasmine contact either me on 07967 729869 or Lynn Sirs on 07960 606802.

ICONIC SCREEN STARS OF THE 1950s

I think we have found the first of our models in a look-a-like project depicting 1950s iconic screen stars. In this case the depiction is of a young Elizabeth Taylor, later to become one of the biggest and most featured screen stars of all time. The model is a young Jasmine Sirs of whom we explain more in a separate blog on this site.

We are now looking for look-a-likes to depict Audrey Hepburn, Grace Kelly and Marilyn Monroe.

RAINBOW TRUST CHILDREN'S CHARITY

During the last month gscott-photography covered an event for the Rainbow Trust Children’s Charity. The event was particular in that it was a tribute to parents who had gone through the loss of a child due to a terminal illness. The impression I left with was quite moving and in particular how it brings to you the meaning of the courage of parents – I was reminded of the saying that there is no greater pain than to outlive your child, when your child dies something dies in you.

Rainbow Trust Children's Charity provides expert social palliative care to families when their child has a life threatening or terminal illness. Offering emotional and practical support, assistance is available for families 24 hours a day. Individually tailored high quality care is offered from diagnosis through to treatment and, should a family become bereaved, the charity will continue to support them for as long as they are needed, helping family members cope with the present and preparing them for the future.

Rainbow Trust relies almost entirely on voluntary donations and through the outstanding generosity of its supporters is able to help over 1,300 families a year throughout England. However, this is just 12% of the families that could benefit from its help. The charity's vision is that one day all terminally ill children and their families will have access to a Rainbow Trust Family Support Worker.

Needless to say this was a very worthwhile event and I hope my contribution through the photographs will help in their work.
