Behind the Scenes Video at Our Look Book Photo Shoot

While fashion photographer Sam Robinson was shooting the kids, we caught a little behind the scenes footage of our young Fableists exploring the set.

Our Photo Shoot Locations

The kids getting some direction from photographer Sam Robinson

Last week, fashion photographer Sam Robinson took us on a journey in London. He shot around 5,000 images for The Fableists’ first look book. We’ve seen the untouched pictures and they are amazing. We are so excited to reveal some of them to you on our web site, which is launching in two weeks!

In the meantime, here is a taste of what we got up to.

We got the kids together for a few group shots

And then the kids got a chance to run around and explore, while the clothes took a real beating!

The Fableists as Superheroes

We then took to the rooftop of Netil House, with great views over London and some open spaces for running races and obstacles for climbing on and jumping off.

Finally, we were in a kitchen in Islington for some messy sandwich making and lots of laughs.

Big thanks to everyone involved, especially Sam Robinson and his assistants Ross Brind and Ben Deamer. The team at Brothers and Sisters, under the leadership of Lu Howlett pulled off a great day and the kids really want to mention stylist Jenna Riddle, who was a big hit!

You’ll hear more from some of these people soon.

The Fableists’ First Fashion Shoot

Breton Top and Denim Skirt

Hello Fableists!

One week from today, we will be having our first official photo shoot for The Fableists. Some of the outfits that we will be featuring in our look book are featured above and below.

Western Shirt, Classic Jeans and Crispin Finn-Designed Tees ‘Dress Good’ and ‘Made to Wear Well’

Fashion photographer extraordinaire, Sam Robinson will be calling the shots. Sam is owner of The Shop Studios, a photography and film studio in North London and a founding partner of The Shop Productions, home to a collective of filmmakers, each with different skills. We are thrilled that he has agreed to work with us. Our models are excited and can look forward to a great day on set and lots of fun. In Sam’s own words, “My photography is about honesty. It’s about seeing: colours, characters, moments, people, personalities and stories. It’s about fun, friendship and feelings.”

We can’t wait to see the results and share them with you.
