Why do we do it? series
This is a series that explores the quirks of creatively passionate people (and the people behind them).
Burnout –  Every creative has those moments where their creativity and enthusiasm fizzles out and they wonder when/if it’ll ever come back.

The misunderstood dance mum –  Dance mums and I have always been on the same page,  you’re one of the few groups beyond other creatives who get you can’t  just plonk a girl in front of a camera and expect to rival a pinterest  grade image, you’re the ones who ask me “how do you want her hair?” and  come armed with costumes and hair spray. We’re both obsessed with  chasing an ideal, so I get you, but this image is done from the perspective of someone who doesn’t get it  and only sees your nitpicking & controlling side.  
Models: Tilly & Kerry Walker

The human prop – is modelling a means of  celebrating form or reducing people into props?
