Decline Studio News  

March 2007

In March's update I've added some new images from last year's "Winters Fable" shoot where I explored the life of 1st century Heretic; Simon Magus.  Magus was played by male model Lacrimosa and a great job he did too!  This shoot was also the first for Yorkshire's Adrianna who'd never modelled before but as you can see, was a natural!  You find four images from this shoot scattered around the site.

March's update also welcomes another new model to Declinegothica, the lovely Chackra.  Her introduction to the team was a mini shoot entitled "Blood Bath" where I got to cover her in artificial blood!  Which was good fun!  Then a month later she played the patient in February's "Crimson Clinic" shoot, that you can read more about below.   I'm looking forward to working with her lots more in 2007.

In January I went to London for my  "Silence" shoot.  The whole theme was a little different for me as it was shot in black and white with a 1920's silent movie feel.  The team was mainly London based with Demondaz, Fracture and Scarlet Angel attending but I did boost the ranks with our own Sancia Lux and Satanic Angel.  We were also lucky enough to have some masks made for the shoot by the hugely talented Enlyyl.  My images don't do justice to their design and craftsmanship.  

You'll be seeing more from this shoot in May's Declinegothica update but until then, there's a sneak preview of Fracture and Demondaz doing a good Nosferatu impression in gallery five.

The end of February saw my "Crimson Clinic" shoot.  I'd been talking about doing a medical fetish shoot since the Summer of 2006 but it took me some time to get the right team together and have the props made.  It was all worth the wait though and prop maker Paul Smith came up with some nice little tools for my cyber-nurses to scare the patients with!

Before I go this month, I want to say a big public thank you to model Sancia Lux for her huge input into my work and this website over the last twelve months.  She's always behind the scenes sorting out the other models and making sure the outfits and poses work, often to her own decrement.   Her energy and enthusiasm has improved every shoot and the resulting images wouldn't have been the same without her participation.  Thank you Luxie, here's to the next twelve months!

In the next few months I'll be back in London to work with another Southern team and  paying a visit to Cardiff for a Welsh outlook, so more on that in May.
