I used to follow this girl's work when I was a young girl trying out photography for myself and uploading it onto the now very popular art site DeviantArt. I was always envious that she was my exact age but her photography was amazing - she had a professional touch at the age of 16 and her Photoshop skills were phenominal. I sometimes even found it hard to look at her work, I was too jealous! I just didn't have the natural ability she had.
Today, nearly five years on from my DeviantArt phase, I look at my daily Lookbook email where they show you the Looks of the day. I'm immediately drawn to a girl called Lara Jade's style. Something about her is familiar, although totally unfamiliar at the same time. (Remember, I hadn't seen any of/or thought of Lara's work for very many years.) I follow her links and find her portfolio website. I realise this is the girl whose photos made my jaw drop - and they still do!
Now she's one of the youngest photographers to have photographed at Spring Studio. She's travelling for work, she's a self-confessed workaholic, she's signing up with agencies in Milan and she's just being all-around amazing. Her DeviantArt page has now hit 11 million views, and that baffles me.

Hope you enjoy her stuff. She's only 20, yet more inspiring than many.
