The island of Dominica traditionally mark the time with a series of celebrations including Heritage Day, Creole Day and Market Day where the island  and islanders are decorated in our national colours, coming together to sing, dance and enjoy our wonderful cultural. So being away from home, the Dominican's in England also come together to celebrate our heritage with organised events such as the Creole evening last Friday The evening was filled with pride, love, laughter, unity and yes great food and music.

I have been photographing her journey with breast cancer prior to her mastectomy which, in a way, has formed a part of my own journey. I must say that I admire Nicola's resilience and strength, I have no experience of what she is going through or what happen's behind her closed doors but every time I see her she is wearing a smile. When she speaks about her situation (for want of a better phrase) I hear courage and determination, I see a women who will not let this define of defeat her. Nicola is definitely an inspirational women!!!

With this in mind I based her shoot on the images I came across in the Huffington Post (October 2017) titled 'Women Bare Mastectomy Scars In Empowering Photos To Raise Breast Cancer Awareness. 'We are still sexy and beautiful.' ' I am unable to share her pictures here so you'll have to trust me when I say that her spirit truly shone during her shoot.

One of my memorable moments was meeting the legendary broadcaster Alex Pascall. As a child my parents would take us to the BBC to record a message, on Alex's show, that was broadcasted to our families in the Caribbean each Christmas. Talking to Alex last night brought back so many wonderful childhood memories as well as creating new ones.
