Michael
Barnes makes a refreshing difference
Michael Barnes’ exceptional creative talents have catapulted
him to new heights – a set at Pinewood studios styling the hair
of international actress Keira Knightly for a Water Aid charity documentary.
Two years ago Michael pioneered the first known set of hair pictures
featuring models and hair styles in an underwater environment with top
photographer Candice renowned world wide for her underwater images.
The images were totally original and unique earning him a finalist position
in the AIPP Trophy.
As the underwater studio heaved with producers, film and sound crews
Michael created a picture of tranquillity with a variety of aquatic
hair designs on the beautiful Keira Knightly. He used a fusion of natural
hair, synthetic hairpieces and jewellery to complement the star’s
natural glamour.
“Photographing hair under water is awe-inspiring. Whilst wind
machines are often used in hair photography water poses a totally different
challenge and requires an approach to hair unlike any other environment.
It is fantastic to work with Candice (www.candice.co.uk)
again and with a superstar like Keira particularly in pursuit of such
a noble cause”
Water Aid is an international NGO dedicated exclusively to the provision
of safe domestic water, sanitation and hygiene education to the world's
poorest people.
