Caspian reached out to me on Instagram, and I said yes instantly- how could I resist an Interview with the Vampire-inspired shoot in a graveyard? It’s one of my favourite films and books, so I was already buzzing with ideas.
We chose Brompton Cemetery in London, one of the iconic Magnificent Seven. It’s grand, gothic, and full of character - the perfect stage for a vampire narrative. I’ll be sharing a full write-up on my blog soon, so keep an eye out for that.
When we met, Caspian was already fully transformed. His makeup was flawless, and the vintage clothing he brought elevated everything - dramatic collars, rich textures, that timeless Victorian silhouette. Even though he’s fairly new to modelling, his acting background made all the difference. He slipped into character effortlessly, moving through the old graves like he’d stepped straight out of the film.
And then came the surprise - a jacket inspired by Buffy the Vampire Slayer. I’ve watched that series about ten times, so of course I was thrilled. Photographing that piece felt like a little love letter to my teenage self.
We spent the day exploring different vampire aesthetics, from classic gothic elegance to modern supernatural flair. Every corner of Brompton Cemetery gave us something new to play with.
