My Return!
Crikey! I haven’t written on here for a little while (naughty!) But I do actually have an excuse this time!
Over the last few months I’ve had to cut right back on modelling due to ill health. It’s been so unbelievably frustrating! I guess I just haven’t had much to write home about for a while!!
I would like to thank everyone who showed their support for me throughout the last few months. The lovely messages and positive emails I had received in this time really touched me. I was was utterly overwhelmed. Without sounding too soppy, your kindness and support really helped me to get back on track. I am also very grateful for everyone’s ongoing support whilst I get going again with modelling.
But anyway… I’m better now and I’m back! Mwahahaha!
Throughout my time off, I have been involved in a very exciting project with photographer, Matt Thompson, that has now, after a period of 18 months, been completed – Hurrah! This project, called Helen’s Story, documents one year of my life & what it’s like to live with epilepsy. To tell the story, a series of photographic portraits by Matt are accompanied by extracts from my personal diary.
Now the images and writing for Helen’s Story is all completed, we’re going through the exciting process of getting coverage, funding, sorting exhibitions…etc.etc. The feedback we have received so far has been phenomenal. So lovely to hear, especially since this project required so much blood, sweat and tears to accomplish. I shall be divulging more into this on my blog very soon… so watch this space!
Great blog post! X

You’re sounding so very upbeat, I hope it’s accompanied with improving health!
I very glad you’re back modelling too, it’s been a little quiet without your excellent and imaginative pics!

Great that you are back in business Helen. We’re gonna have a great shoot in The Netherlands on 20-21 november. Keep posting your great work.
See you soon,
Lars
Sitting here feeling so sad for what you have had to go through & the effect on your life! I have messaged you before & we had a shoot several years ago.
I hope that you have turned the corner & can get back those things that you have lost over the last couple of years. Your courage is immense.
I look forward to seeing you again one day
