Elvis Presley

This past Wednesday the 16th August 2017 marked the 40th year since the passing of Elvis Aaron Presley, the media in every form have been paying tribute to The King of Rock-n-Roll.

We were just under 6 weeks old (me and my twin sister Emma) when Elvis died, we only shared the world with Elvis for a small while but truly grew up with a lifetime of his presence.

I wanted to pay tribute, as many artists have this week and over the years, by capturing not only Elvis in his youth but by finding an image that was a little different to his usual 50's pose, he sure was and still is the most beautiful but masculine man to Grace this earth, a legend in music, life and death.
