bloggy: Steen (RIP)

[kumimonster]

Sometime in the late 90s I remember seeing a photo of Midori wearing a transparent latex dress with a copper snake appliqué. It was a custom made dress by Molly at So Hip It Hurts. I asked and was told that the name of the photographer was Christine Kessler and got interested in finding more of her work

omg when did your LJ icon become a moving gif?
i want one!! (tho of me, not of some azn dude)

I never did know her, except indirectly through you. I'd actually forgotten that she photographed your brown flared trousers, and that we used a photo in our Skin Two ad. Weird how I'd forgotten.

She did some lovely work with Alex/House of Bias, and of course her lingerie pin-ups.

i think that it was erik hansen hansen that actually shot the burgundy ones that were used in skin two.
i don't recall an advert :-p

[missfuzzybunny]

No, he did the maroon ones, but then the brown ones I made for you were shot by Steen.

Brown flares

From Tony Mitchell: We certainly featured the brown flares in Skin Two, but I remember it being an editorial image. However, if Heidi remembers an ad, I guess there must have been an ad too :)
