"This shot was taken during my last session with Kate in 1979 when we shot a series of photographs in various leotards that Kate had brought. This particular outfit was an amazing, knitted leotard in a particularly vibrant blue colour!" Gered Mankowitz
-
"The leotard was still with us but had evolved and become a little more complicated! Kate is climbing out of an old Kodak print glazing drum that we used as a base for a coffee table in the studio." Gered Mankowitz
-
"An out-take from the back cover series of portraits that I shot for Lionheart in August 1978. I art directed the album cover and my assistant at the time, Richard Grey, designed it and we decided to try and create two front covers but the attic shot was always the stronger." Gered Mankowitz
-
"This was part of a fabulous series of shots I took of Kate in February 1979. The fabric was chosen so that it would move against the shapes that Kate made with her body when blown by a powerful wind machine!" Gered Mankowitz
-
A black & white out-take from the Lionheart album cover shoot taken in a set built in my studio in August 1978.

"Taken during my final session with Kate in February 1979 and intended to create the high-fashion magazine cover look of a classic photographer like Norman Parkinson." Gered Mankowitz
-
"Although this portrait was part of the original session in January 1978, it inspired us to shoot more theatrical portraits in the follow-up session a few weeks later." Gered Mankowitz
-
"Shot from the US release of the Kick Inside album sleeve session in March 1978. EMI America had rejected the original cover and I was brought in to shoot an alternative. I had the box made especially for the shoot and we used it again for the Lionheart cover." Gered Mankowitz
-
"One of the film siren portraits made for general promotional purposes in March 1978. Although this portrait was not connected with Kates single Hammer Horror I have subsequently felt that it fits the title quite well!" Gered Mankowitz
