Paul Hartnett (an amazing photographer)













































When Paul Hartnett came to give us a lecture at uni I was determined to sort myself out some work experience with him as he is very influential in the fashion industry and is well known. After he had finished his inspiring quirky chat I rushed over to him and just asked him outright. Luckily for me fashion week was coming up and he needed an assistant. Especially a female like me as he said when he approaches some men they get a bit funny with him as he is an older gay man. So he needed me there to better my eyelashes. And it worked and he got some amazing shots. I have a really good eye for spotting things and I did help him a lot. I met him in the rain outside Somerset house and he was snapping away. We spent the day taking pictures of the best dressed outside Somerset House and Saville Row. I then went off to see the Komakino show and then we went together to see the Omar Kashora show. He was an absolute gentleman and such a character and I'm sure I will see him again. That was a great opportunity.
