Random Street Style





 


Here are a couple of awesome street stylers I managed to grab pictures of. Each picture is from a different time (none where taken in the same place) and each has its story.

The first shot was taken in manchester during The Voice 2013 live recordings. I know what your thinking: No, I did not audition for The Voice - I went along with a relative who did. This shot was taken around the same time as the 'Yolo' post. I caught this guy standing outside the building as we were going to get some coffee. The day was grey, very windy and damn cold so I only had enough body warmth to take two shots. I am pleased to say that this guy, along with his friend, did the live audition on The Voice and went into Jessie J's team. (I am not sure of their names but if they are reading this, totally email me your names and I shall credit you here!)

The second shot was taking during the Bristol Festival Of Nature. I was assisting out at the festival taking shots and other various things (I had a walkie-talkie, I felt like a secret agent). I found this lady looking round one of the festival's marquees. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera on me at the time so I had to run and grab it. Luckily I managed to find her again to take a shot of her beautiful coat!

The third shot was a first in a way. It was the first time that I'd actually half-chased someone down to get a shot of them. Understandably she was wearing earphones so I think I must have startled her a bit when I suddenly tapped her on the shoulder asking to take a picture of her and her awesome tattoos. For those who don't know, the arm tattoos are Kodama spirits from a film called Princess Mononoke (pictured below).
