Latest Upload to the Stock Libraries.

Posted on August 21, 2014 by paulcullenphotography

I thought that my old coin collection may be of some interest to people from an educational point of view. I think that they could be of use for those completing History projects or other numismatic endeavors (That’s the study of coins – I had to look it up) so I decided to post some of them to the Microstock libraries. They have been accepted by Veer and I am still waiting to hear from Bigstock and Shutterstock. Here are photographs of some of the (I think) more interesting ones:-

Candice Huffine – The First Curvy Model of Pirrelli Calendar 2015

Posted on August 5, 2014 by paulcullenphotography

This has to be a positive step to redressing the imbalance in how women are portrayed. It has to be recognized that beauty comes in all sizes, colours, shapes & ages and we should see this reflected in high end visual media such as the esteemed Pirelli Calendar.

A Stairway To Fashion

Candice Huffine

The Pirelli calendar – aside from the gorgeous models featured in its pages and the amazing locations, what makes it even more desirable is the fact that the calendar can never be found on the newsstands, but is sent only to some lucky few, and no one knows who those people are. For the upcoming edition of the much talked about calendar, the names of the models have been revealed and the surprise of the 2015 edition is that plus-size model, Candice Huffine, will be the first curvy model of Pirelli calendar.

“My presence on this set – the most glamorous in the world – is a sign that things are really changing. I am aware of my diversity. Even when I climb the stairs in a place like this I know that a few of the clothes from the wardrobe will fit. But no one makes…

Trash the Dress shoot.

Posted on August 3, 2014 by paulcullenphotography

I was invited to attend a “Trash the Dress” photo-shoot by a professional photographer called Bob Richards. He is a good friend of a good friend of mine, and now he is my friend – I digress!

The “Trash the Dress” event was created by photographers and their wedding clients who wanted to do something different with their wedding dresses than put it away in a box for ever. The concept of trash the dress is that you take your now redundant wedding dress and literally trash it; destroy it by going to somewhere really mucky – Beach, industrial wasteland, lake, muddy field, Scrap/junk yard – and you take photographs of the event happening – for posterity! At Bob’s event, he gathered together Models, Make-up artists and Photographer friends to take photographs and have fun at the same time. The venue was Colwick Country Park which is just to the east of the U.K. city of Nottingham. It is a beautiful place and it has a large lake in the middle of it. It also has a disused church at one end which came in useful for alternative shots. Here are just a few of the photographs that I took – more can be found by doing a search for “Paul Cullen Photography” in Facebook or searching “paul2210” in Flickr:-
