This is one of my latest series (I took it yesterday).

 I got the idea from another very talented photographer, who is actually working on all sorts of projects right now. Amongst many other jobs, she works for a clothes brand, taking smart looking vintagey pictures. She has a website and you need to check it out (here).

For these pictures my idea was to basically make the objects look old but nice. The close up makes them look more imposing and important. Lighting and background are also another crucial factor.
The idea of the Converse and Ben Sherman bag was taken from a film that I recently watched on the "mods and rockers" (yes, it is Quadrophenia. 1973). I found that era particularly interesting and appealing, having done some research on it and my grandad having quoted me some of his best memories. Ben Sherman was a very popular brand for the mods and was highly influenced by their period.
