A month or so after I’d broken into music photography, a friend who was a stylist got in touch to say she knew a girl who was going to be in this really huge girl band. I was quite sceptical – it’s the kind of claim you hear a lot working as a photographer – but we ended up arranging to do a shoot at my house.
My friend styled the shoot, which was based on 60s and 70s TV shows and movies we grew up watching, involving strong women fighting evil – things like Wonder Woman and Charlie’s Angels. This one is based on Jane Fonda’s character Barbarella in the 60s sci-fi film, which is one of my favourites, with outfits designed by Paco Rabanne.
