The Girl In The Water

Back in August, I spent the afternoon taking photos of the lovely Sandy by (and in!) the reservoir near my house. She is the most willing model that I've had the pleasure to work with; as we waded through the water and walked ankle deep in mud! 

Model: Sandy Rushton

A Misty September Morning

Yesterday morning, I awoke at around half past seven to find the most beautiful sight outside my bedroom window. The sun was pouring light through the trees, and mist was rising from the reservoir. It looked so magical that I just had to get up and take some photographs. So I pulled on some warm clothing and blurry eyed I captured the morning through my lens. 

Hello World

Hello world! Seeing as this is my first blog post, I'd better introduce myself. My name is Portia Hunt and I am a fashion, portrait and event photographer from Manchester. I first picked up a DSLR camera a couple of years ago however, it is only in the last few months that my photography has really begun to thrive! 

So far, I have worked with six models, two makeup artists and a fashion boutique owner, as well as having photographed numerous local music events. While my website and Flickr are ideal for showcasing my favourite photographs, and my Facebook page for quick status updates, I require an outlet to ramble about my work a little more.. and this is where my blog comes in!

To start with, I have decided to post some of my favourite photographs that I have taken so far. If you like my work, please also head over to my Facebook page and click 'like' to support me and keep up to date with my future posts.
