I know it has been so long since I have posted, I have been so so busy the last 2 weeks and I literally have loads blog about over the next week, including shoots, fashion shows and some great fashion hauls, but I promised in my last post I would talk more about my time interning with Xpose and I have had so many people ask me about it and request another post, so here’s some more behind the scenes info for all you Xpose fans!
I have snaps from 2 more VT’s I shot on location with Xpose, the first was a wedding shoot about English designer Suzanne Neville. Although she is well known for designing gowns for many celebrities (I personally knew her from designing a lot of Tess Dalys gowns for Strictly come dancing) Suzanne also designs stunning bridal collections. Her 2013 collection is called the ‘Diamond Collection’ and features something for all brides. From lace to silk to streamline to princesses she really does cover all the angels while still maintaining a certain continuity throughout. Sarah Morissey looked effortlessly glamorous modelling the collection. The VT featured cut aways of Sarah modelling the dresses while presenter Lisa Cannon interviewed Suzanne about her new collection. Lisa was great fun to work with and was happy to answer any questions I had as well as give me advice on my presenting work.
Next up was another dress shoot but this time it was shot in Lara Boutique and featured Celebrity inspired dresses from the latest range they’re stocking Lust. These dresses are really sexy figure hugging high quality pieces. What’s great about them is the fact that they are so versatile, they’re dressy enough for a special occasion but not so dressy that they will be left hanging in a wardrobe until another formal event come’s up. They could easily be worn to a wedding or special event, but just as easily worn for a regular Saturday night on the town and not look out of place. To me that makes them a good investment! This VT was presented by Glenda Gilson who is so professional, she’s a great presenter and has a really friendly bubbly personality which really comes across great on camera. Glenda was interviewing one of Irelands top stylists Courtney Smith (Who also comes across great on camera and really knows her stuff when it comes to styling!). They chatted about the different looks while models Sarah Morissey and Lynn Kelly modelled the collection.
I really enjoyed my time at Xpose, everyone was so nice and I learned so much. The camera man Ronan took me under his wing and even though I have been presenting and studying media for 3 and a half years now my time in Xpose was an invaluable experience. I look forward to my next trip to TV3 (which is actually quite soon, but I’m not giving anything away yet!) and cant wait to learn more.
Mucho Love,
Aoife X
