Emailing about wearable art pieces

After discussions both with Sharon and Madame Peripetie about accessories and wearable art pieces I decided it would be a good idea to start contacting people. The first person I decided to contact was Keiron LeVine I had used some of his accessories before and knew he would have some really individual and amazing pieces that could work well with my shoot ideas. I emailed him and asked if he possibly had any new pieces he was working on that would possibly fit to my theme that I could use, below is the email I sent to him along with some images of his wearable art works that I took from before. The next step is to wait for him to reply and hope that I get a response soon.


Hi Keiron, 
I am currently in my third year at Southampton Solent university, studying make-up and hair design. I am currently doing my final major project, which is based on dark surrealism, focussing on the in-between world of dream and reality. I wanted to know if you had any new pieces of wearable art works? or work that I could possibly borrow, to shoot and use for my final
Major project? I have used your work before, when you visited for our tribal project in my second year, and I would love the opportunity to work with you, and use your work again if possible. 
It would be great to here back from you. 


Thank you

Along with messaging Keiron a photographer that got in touch with me about photographing some of my work, I saw made headpieces and jewellery. I quite liked the look of some of the images I saw of the headwear she has made so asked If I could possibly use one of the headpieces for one of my shoots if she photographed this. She responded very quickly and said I could defiantly use one of her headpieces and that she would be happy to also photograph my images. This was a great response and allowed me to start thinking about possible shoot ideas with some of her accessories. 

Below are some of the pieces she has made.
