“I want to give people the platform to encourage others celebrate themselves and their bodies too”
Hi, my name is Lydia and I’m a Female Body Casting Artist, and the founder of The Body Casting Training Program.
The work I do focuses on allowing people to celebrate their incredible bodies, and to help eradicate any shame, embarrassment or negative thoughts that they may have encountered throughout their lives, by seeing themselves from a different perspective…and as a piece of art!
And I didn’t want that to be limited by people being able to come and visit me in my Brighton HQ…
With that, the training program was born!
I train talented individuals to create moulds, the Lydia Reeves way, all around the world. These moulds are then packaged and sent back to me at my Brighton HQ to be cast out, created, painted and shipped to your home. They’re still pieces of Lydia Reeves art, but (hopefully) a lot closer to home for you!
I want my work to have a positive impact on how people see not only their bodies, but how they see themselves as a whole. And the best way to do that is be expanding my casting network!
Meet My Casting Network
These lovely folks live alllllll across the UK, and create moulds from their own studios, that then get shipped back to me in my Brighton HQ to finish… So you’re still getting a piece of my artwork, while being cast right on your doorstep <3

The network doesn’t stop there…
I am so so blessed to host training courses for people ALL around the world, either in-person or online. These lovely people are fully qualified, and run their own casting businesses completely independently, using training gained through my courses! They offer casting sessions, and create the finished pieces, themselves <3

Ahhhh, I’m sorry but we aren’t currently hiring… However, the best way to find out when we are is by following me on Instagram <3

Body casting involves making a mould directly on the body using materials like alginate or silicone, then filling the mould with a casting material, it allows for highly detailed and realistic reproductions of body parts, capturing even the finest details like stretch marks or scars! You can read more about my own processes here.

I’ve trained Roxy in my Brighton HQ, and both her and I cast out of my iconic boobie cast-filled studio in Brighton. My other members of the LR HQ Network operate their own business as body casters, and are fully trained, by me, to create the moulds. They then send the moulds back to us in Brighton, and we finish your cast fully in our studio and send them out to you from here :)

I am so lucky to have gotten to a point where I can train an LR HQ team of Body Casters, who operate as their own businesses, but use my methods to create the moulds, then send them to my Brighton HQ for me to finish! You can explore my casting network here.
