The unseen

I'm putting a website together so have been going through all of my old photos. 
Every now and then I stumble across some that I've never put up for whatever reason. 
This is from the West Coast Darling shoot I did for the finals of the ELLE New Talent competition. 
Thought it might be too 'birthy' for Elle but I like it. Expect more!

Vamp Clothing

Nicci from Vamp Clothing and I have been wanting to shoot together for so long now. 

The day finally arrived last Saturday when we shot some of the vintage dresses from their range. 

As you can see we were up against a raging wind - which goes with living and shooting in Cape Town - 

but I think we used it to our advantage.

Styling - Nicci St Bruce

Model - The wonderful Jade Ashton Scully from 3D Model Agency

All clothes vintage Vamp.

Thanks girls! Gotta do it again some time soon.

Hope you like. OH AND CLICK ON THE IMAGES TO SEE THEM BIGGER!

Kate was asked to share her 'Favourite Item Now' with the Mr Price fashion blog - In the Fashion Loop so she asked me to take some pics. We quickly took some snaps during her lunch break. 
I think she looks beautiful.

Practical Magic - Between 10and5 exhibition

I was part of the Between 10and5 exhibition that took place on Friday night. Photographers were paired up with stylists from the Elizabeth Galloway Academy of Fashion design. Our team chose the theme Practical Magic out of a hat. These are the resulting images.

Cub

[insert title here]

My sister and I have been doing this our whole lives. I'm 6 years older so ever since she could walk (maybe even before) I've been dressing her up and taking pictures of her. 

This was shot at apartment number 410 above the Gardens Centre. The story is about a girl who lives alone and has to eat toast cos she spends all her food money on shoes & hats. Feel free to come up with a title. I am at a loss.

The Vamp Girls

 

Technically, this is a terrible photo. But I like it because if you've ever met Nicci, on the left with the mushy face, not only will you know that she doesn't really look that (she actually looks like this) 

but also that this motion blur truly captures that fact that she is hardly still for a second. 

The other lovely dancing lady is Cheralee.

Culture Club

 

Some photos from the Toffie Popular Culture Festival held at Cape Town City Hall this last week/end. Not the kind of thing I usually post so wasn't sure about putting them up. Uhh, but I like them, so here they are anyway.
