When artists collaborate the end result is usually very interesting. And I have to be honest, these images wouldn't have been what they are without the help of Amalia, Conrad Bo and Alfonso from www.1886.co.za. Amalia did an amazing job with the styling and make-up for our second portrait session we've done together. Beleive it or not, but I was even more on my nerves doing this shoot than the first time I photographed Amalia. Any shoot for me is quite nerve wrecking, don't know why, but it always feels like running athletics, your heart races until the shotgun fires, and then you are all right. Photographing a person for a second time, to me, means harder work to be different and more successful than the previous shoot. With all the adrenalin pumping, I think the end result is quite successful. It's always a pleasure working with Amalia, she is so laid back and funny, I burst into laughter quite a few times, yet her talents are plenty. I can honestly see her on a cover of Vogue or Harpers Bazaar, she has a presence, something you would expect from Marilyn Monroe, but with a South African touch. I would just like to thank her for having confidence in my work, for Conrad Bo whose stunning art set the mood in our backgrounds and for Alfonso from 1886 for the stunning venue. This was a great shoot and I hope to be able to do many similiar ones in the future.
