This is Patricia
Patricia knocked on the studio door the other week and asked if I could photograph her; as simple as that!Having reached a certain age she felt it warranted a set of portraits.
A date was duly arranged and I have to say I very much enjoyed my time with her, she was fun and had some great stories of her time working at Pinewood Studios. Amazingly she last sat for a photo portrait 60 years ago and she brought the photo with her which depicted an elegantly poised lady in the studio. I wasn't to recreate the photo but I didn't ask her to jump up and down either!
She should write a book. She met some of the really great names in film; went down the pub with them after a days filming. The only galling story she had though was her photo album from her days at Pinewood was stolen. Years ago now but the whole lot went. That is a photo album I would have loved to have seen!
We created quite a few portraits and we each had our favourites, this is just one of them though.
