Hats

Article by Fotissima Photography after a photo shoot for Caitriona King Designs.

Girls it’s all about the hats…..pink hats, purple hats, big hats, small hats, spikey hats, furry hats…. you just have to have a hat!  I’m a big lover of hats, i love photographing them, i love drawing them and i even managed to fit in a Milinery course this year. So, when our local miliner Caithriona King asked me to take some snazzy new snaps for her snazzy new website i was thrilled  and dying to see how the professionals do it.

WELL i wasn’t dissappointed that’s for sure, when i arrived at her studio i was like a kid in a toy shop. Such an array of hats i never saw.  Like myself, Caithriona did her time at Art College and you only have to look to look at her hats to see she is very creative. Her pieces posess all the elemants of any good design. They are so rich in colour, texture, shape, i could go on……

Caithriona’s brief was simple, ‘I just want something different’ she said, ‘I don’t want the usual hats on a white polystyrene head, i think i’d like to do them outside’ Off we went for a look around for a suitable location and found the perfect spot. Now all we needed was the models.
