Cosmic Girls Music Video Shoot BaseHQ Newcastle 27th Feb 2011

The Cosmic Girls, Stephanie and Charlotte, are twin sisters, who had a great start to their careers when they were chosen to be the backing singers of Duffy on her world tour.

We were lucky enought to meet them at Stockton Riverside Firework Display in 2010, when they were performing in front of 100,000 people and we were one of the official photographers at the show, which also included a performance by Joe McElderry of X Factor fame.

Over the last couple of months, the girls have signed to a record label and are releasing their first single, "The One", around April time and were filming their first ever music video, and we were delighted to be asked to go and photograph the behind the scenes shots as the day progressed.

During the shoot, they worked with Bright Eyes Media on filming, Emily Emmett and Palatial Hair on Hair and Makeup and were looked after throughout the day by, the record labels very own, Alexander McNeil

From makeup through to filming, we snapped the various people who were working on the video, from the makeup and hair stylists, to the production crew and backing musicians.

Although it was quite a long process for them, spirits were high throughout the day and we left with a good set of images.

During the filming, we were interviewed for a promotional video about the filming, and we look forward to seeing the finished film.

Good luck to the girls with the release of their single and we hope they do brilliantly

Tweet Girls Calendar Shoot Walworth Castle Thurs 24th Feb 2011

After months of anticipation, we finally got the opportunity to work on the Tweet girls calendar in aid of Help For Heroes and The Bluelamp Foundation.

The calendar is a collection of women, who all use Twitter across the country, getting down to bare essentials in a series of boudoir style shots, at four locations across the UK.

We were delighted to be able to shoot the first one at Walworth Castle, but the day didn't start off well, when we arrived to find not only building works going on around the outside of the castle, but also to be told there was no water inside the castle either.

Despite that, the makeup girls Katy, from Make-up by Katy (@makeupbykaty) and Kay from Princess hair and makeup got to work on our budding models, before Sarah (@elizabethwells), from Elizabeth Wells lingerie, got the ladies secured into their stunning corsets..

First to shoot were Gina (@byginaevents), the organiser, Michelle (@onebigpresent), and our makeup artist Katy (@makeupbykaty). They did a bridal boudoir shot outside the castle, and despite the blinding sunshine and cold wind, they got us off to a flying start.

Back inside everyone was working hard on our next shot, which was a Tea Party themed shot inside the apartment, Walworth Castle had kindly loaned the organisers.

This involved, Vicky (@nedaycrafts), Angela (AR_BWV) and our very own photographer, Julie (@whisperboudoir), sitting around eating cake and drinking tea, a hard job, but someone has to do it.

Our final themed shot involved Donna (@motherpreneur), and Sarah (@elizabethwells), and these two had the daunting task of shooting a halloween themed shot in Walworth Castles very own dungeon. With arched ceilings and cobwebs hanging everywhere we quickly worked on a few shots.

During the day, several of the ladies had their very own boudoir shots done by Julie, and everyone seemed to have a good time.

Promotional photos will be shown here once the organisers have a chance to do their work.

We'll give you more information no buying the calendar as soon as we have it.
