Legendary Menswear designer Jeff Banks, is London based and has launched his new range for China. Asked me to shoot a little editorial for a Chinese Magazine....
As always I'm so honored to work with such talented people. Margot Janse has once again created these master piece dishes with only local ingredients.. I was privileged to be spoiled with this nine course sitting. Let me share my images and Margots dishes with you... we needed to bring it all together with a subtle African theme running through the imagery.
I'm somebody who lives a very quite life. I really don't enjoy drama except in my pictures. The concept started with a fashion shoot outdoors with big ink blue skies, on the day typical keeping with my outdoor luck... overcast and drizzle ... whatelse.. oh freezing cold ...
Very proud of this shoot. Had a great team and I spent the time on this one ... This editorial is the closest I've come to being true to myself as the photographer I want to be.
We got involved with O&M on the NSIR campaign. Early one winter morning we went out to bury the surfboard... ha try bury a surfboard standing up and not draw attention. We are very proud of this project.
Big big production for Fair Lady wedding editorial ... Lots of team lots of stuff going on and freezing cold ... and hello for the pending rain. Kundra on styling, Rose on Make up and loads of other people.
Having fun as always in the studio as we shoot the new Editors pictures for OPRAH mag. Rumour had it that Sam didn't like being photographed ... not what I found out. But then again working with Robyn Cooke makes it feel so easy.
Fast becoming a favorite genre to shoot ... food and really yummmmmy food. Once again we have been commisioned to shoot with a really good chef Laurent from Bizerca. Wow meets rustica... that is what I can say. The most unassuming character until you taste this mans food.
