Hollyoaks Leah loves her new Polaroid PoGo, which print photos on the go using your mobile, but what gets her snapping?


What do you usually take pictures of?
Mostly my friends or cute, fluffy things.  It’s quite useful if you go shopping and you see something you like but you don’t know if you want to buy it and you want to show your friends.

If you could take just one picture, what would it be?
Probably just a really happy occasion, like a big family photograph or a group photograph of all my friends.

Where would your ideal shooting location be?
Somewhere hot, like the Bahamas or a beach, so when you're filming you can just chill out.

You've done some modelling for the Hollyoaks calendar...
Yeah, I’ve decided against it this year but I’ve done the previous two. It’s great fun – we go to weird and random locations and the first one I did was in an old manor. We walked in and there was a giraffe’s head and someone said there was a Rhino’s head upstairs, I thought I was in Jumanji!

What was the last  picture you took?
Me and some of the people from Hollyoaks went to a charity ball on Saturday and I took my camera, so we just took loads of silly photos of everyone dancing.

How long does it take you to get ready in the morning?
For work I literally throw myself out of bed, get dressed and that’s me done. The best thing is that when I get there, everyone does you hair and make-up. If I need to do it myself, I’m quite fast – usually fifteen minutes.

How about getting ready for a night out?
It doesn’t have to take long, but I really enjoy going out. Me and my friends love the whole process of it  - having a little drink, putting your make-up on slowly, so I’d like at least an hour.

Do you go out with the Hollyoaks girls?
Yeah, quite a bit. We all live in the same area and we work the same schedules, so we constantly go out for dinner and eat too much food. We work our way around the local restaurants.
