BEAUTY AND THE BOUTIQUE HOTEL

When Sean first suggested a photoshoot at a cosy boutique hotel in Brighton my first thought was how exciting it would be. Having met and spoken with Sean and having read the lovely comments from others who have had photo-sessions, I was very confident that it would be a great idea. As it turned out, it was.

How to Pull Off a Swimsuit

“Hell no!” I said to friends encouraging my participation in a public swimming pool party. Though a pool party was on my fantasy “to do” list, I figured it impossible to properly fill out a woman’s swimsuit, so the idea of wearing one in public seemed ridiculous.

LONDON, MY LONDON

Historically referred to as ‘ The Centre of the Universe’, London has long been a magnet for migrants. Since its inception, waves of communities (no doubt including LGBTQ+) have settled in the UK’s capital, thus enriching the diversity and vibrancy of life in this amazing city

Becoming Ophelia

How times change. As a child with an urge to crossdress I thought myself alone with a weird disorder. Now as I endeavour to write and share my story I’m conscious of not wanting to bore potential readers of this magazine with an all too familiar tale!

KNOCK OUT BLONDE

I’m very excited this edition to be bringing you an article on the wonderful Kellie Maloney and her new movie Knockout Blonde which I was honoured to be invited to watch as a press guest at its UK Premiere in Essex just before Christmas. Having already won several awards including one at Cannes and another from the Docs without Borders Film Festival in 2023, Kellie once again swept to victory (naturally) on the evening of December 8th at the I Am Film Festival in Romford winning ‘Best Documentary’.

JADE MIA BROADHEAD

For as long as I remember, I’ve wanted to be a singer. People often said I wanted to be Kurt Cobain with my floppy blonde hair, but deep down, it was Courtney Love who I aspired to be. The guys at school wanted to be Axl Rose or Slash, I wanted to be Kat Bjelland from Babes in Toyland. I’ve written songs for as long as I remember, but I was an awful performer. Crippled by stage-fright, the slightest mistake would make me feel sick inside, thinking nobody would ever like my music.

JULIE’S STUDIO PHOTOSHOOT

I’ve always enjoyed professional photoshoots. Somehow, it brings another dimension to being Julie. I have a liking for 1950’s images and the work of Gil Elvgren, especially the flash of stocking tops and the hint of suspenders. I do have a particular liking of 1950’s style boudoir photos.
