“I've never seen so many clothes delivered to a photo session, but Grace was lovely to work with. We had to shoot through the night beacuse she wanted to finish a music video first. She said, ‘I kept David Bailey waiting ten hours, but I’m only eight hours on you, Lawrence’, so I thought, ‘Okay, I’m in good company here!' The George Tavern had a little annex with a lovely disco floor, so we used that. Afterwards, we took some shoots outside, and next thing I klnow, she's hula-hooping standing in the middle of a roundabout, first thing in the morning! A postman pasted and almost crashed his van. Grace lived up to my expectations and more.” Lawrence Watson
