Photo shoot in Prague for new EP and Album

on 20th April 201220th April 2012 by ellie lawson

Had a crazy time in Prague with Brilliant and creative photographer Bara Prasilova and her team shooting the artwork for my new music releases this year! We spent the first day in Prague marvelling at beautiful architecture and fairytale like castles,whilst turning down trips to museums of ancient torture and ancient grave yards (maybe next time! lol)

Bara’s first location for the shoot was in a beautiful 1930s style swimming pool, with an outdoor heated pool. Some of the pools were empty of water, which gave the place a lot of character and I loved the grand stadium seating surrounding the pools.

We did the shoot with a massive amount of clothes and took so many pics I felt like I had done a full on work out at the gym by the end of the day! Loved every minute of it and always inspired by Bara’s creative and unique vision.

The second day we shot in another old 1930s building that used to be very expensive to rent but is now used mainly by artists. We had a little helper that tried to get in on the shoot! (not Dave my guitarst,co-writer and best friend lol, the sweet black dog!)

Check out Bara Prasilova’s photography at her website which is http://www.baraprasilova.com
and come and see me at http://www.facebook.com/ellielawsonmusic to keep updated on the releases! Thanks to Quiksilver Women for the clothes 🙂

Here’s the lyrics:

When everything’s a mess you want those secrets to success

and when you’re only doing your best, you’ve got to get it off your chest, caus

Everything can change over night, and it all it all depends on the way you look at life

Everything can change in front of your eyes, and it all depends on the way you look life

(whistle…)

Change- in front of your eyes, and it all depends on the way you look at life.

Doubt can pull you down and like a tree it falls without a sound

you never know what’s there, when you’re secretly prepare, caus

Everything can change over night, and it all it all depends on the way you look life

Everything can change in front of your eyes, and it all depends on the way you look life

(whistle…)
