BEJEWELLED TEMPTRESS


(see all images here...,)


[she], Aroϋka, goddess of the northern range lived amongst the beasts that were her subjects deep in the Tal-Paro jungle. She was a tempermental goddess with moods that spun out of control as easily as the weather changes deep within her domain.

Of all the animals that roamed freely in this leafy paradise, snakes were clearly her favourite and never far from her presence. The people of the nearby villages knew well to stay clear of her territory, for there were many tales of warriors disappearing without a trace into the night leaving behind families and loved ones to mourn.

Though many wondered, none knew the true story was that [she], Aroϋka mourned her lost lover Guanapo. Late one night, due to an 'act of indescrection', [she], Aroϋka had transformed her lover into the very python that now lay wound about her waist.

But although she regretted her rash actions she had no means to turn him back. Her magik and consumed all that he be. And while on some days the skies thundered at her anger; on others the heaven opened and wept at her lost.

Now warriors that wondered into her lair were 'seduced' as she sought a human vessel

into which she could transpose the essence of her lost love..... her Guanapo

Every now and then a photographer falls in love with a muse. Someone that is so terribly easy to work with and so professionally that in them they can see no wrong. For me that model is ALEXIUS DIANA. And though it is not lightly that I hand out this praise, it certainly is deserved. Hailing from Virginia this american native landed here on our UK SHORES and 'tore up LFW in one fell swoop'. From the arch of her eyebrow to the tips of her ballectic hand movements, she stood out, AT EVERY SHOW, in EVERY PHOTO SESSION at EVERY TURN.

A joy to work with rumor has it she is now knocking 'em dead over in NY where she was recently called upon by a (yet to be named) agency to do some work with them.

Looking forward to see what Ms DIANA as she became affectionately known to us all over here is gonna be doing next.
( no doubt a referance to the elegance of Lady Di and the stage presence of Diana Ross rolled into one)

I was one of the lucky photographers that had her all to myself in-between all the catwalk shows and what you see here is just a sampling of what she rocked us with.

See you soon fashion daughter.
