// THE BLOG:

Coming this October…

In the spirit of letting you in what we’ve been working on, allow me to prepare you for some super news about this October.

Every year, I’m honoured to create still and motion imagery for clients all over the African continent, and around the World. Working on commercial campaigns is so much fun and the challenges these projects bring are very rewarding, but more important to me are my personal projects. I’m constantly finding, developing and working on creative ways to use my camera to make an impact, and this year we are honoured to work on a very important project. Quoting one of Africa’s illustrous daughters,

“We’re constantly being bombarded by problems that we face and sometimes we can get completely overwhelmed. [But] we should always feel like a hummingbird. I may feel insignificant, but I don’t want to be like the other animals watching the planet go down the drain. I’ll be a hummingbird, I’ll do the best I can.”

Would you like to join me on this? More details shortly….

The Art of “Robbery”

Here’s a story that was shared over on the Photo.net forums recently:

Client : Nice shot. You got it in 15 minutes. But isn’t 1,000 bucks for that a robbery?
Photographer : Yes, you are right, but to get it done correctly in 15 minutes it took me 15 years of hard work and dedication to master this art of “robbery”.

Daily Muse: What They Dint Tell You About Cinderella

I love me a good fairy tale. Who doesn’t?

Almost everywhere you look today there’s an inspiring story with a happy ending – usually a-rags-to-riches narrative of sheer human determination, pristine perseverance, and a drive to overcome adversity. We all love those stories. I dare say sometimes we live for them – secretly hoping and dreaming that our own lives would one day miraculously transform.

DailyMuse: Stand Out

It is easy in the world to live after the world’s opinions; it is easy in solitude to live after your own; but the great man is he who in the midst of the crowd keeps with perfect sweetness the independence of solitude.
