@hulotte-hey,that is such a great comment- and you are right,the colours are very Gauguin and she looks like someone he would have painted (not that I am comparing my work to Gauguin of course!). Funnily enough I have just bought a book on Gauguin- I went to the Tate Modern to see the exhibition but unfortunately the session time I wanted was all sold out (I should never leave things until the last moment) so I consoled myself with a book on his works instead. I love the rich colours in his paintings-so very beautiful
Dying for her face and clothes (and the photography, of course). Got a question: will you be (or are you) at Amsterdam fashion week this week? I'd love to see who you'd photograph here in Holland :)
She is the girlfriend of Christophe Lemaire from Hermes and she is the art director for his own fashion collection "Lemaire", she is more talented than he is (to say how much she is), She's beautiful in real too. I miss her.
May: Australia as a travel destination; Flat whites + cold pressed coffee from Ltd espresso + brew bar (Brunswick St, Brisbane) and BlackStar Coffee Roasters (West End, Brisbane); Avocado on toasted Turkish bread from Leavain Bakery (pick up a slab at the Jan Powers Powerhouse Farmers Market) with a drizzle of Joseph olive oil; Steak at the Brekky Creek Hotel (it may not be the best steak in Australia but a char-grilled steak in the iconic Beer Garden on a warm, sunny Autumn day is pretty hard to beat!); Bill Granger's Spicy Roast Pumpkin Salad (so delicious especially with bbq'd lamb cutlets. Add a little less cumin and cayenne pepper if you like things less spicy); Jocelyn's Provisions blonde brownie (a delicious sweet treat); Band of Outsiders cutout silk-chiffon midi dress (so dreamy and floaty.... perfect for warm spring evenings. Wear with flat summer sandals for the "I am definitely on holidays look!"); Current/Elliott The Infantry jacket (a cool alternative to the ubiquitous olive army jacket); Nicholas Kirkwood lace-mesh pumps(wear with a crisp white shirt, denim jeans + a bold red lip); J Brand Relaxed slouchy overalls (if you haven't got your hands on a pair of overalls yet...get on it! This yellow pair would be like wearing the sun on a daily basis); Tibi eyelet embroidered dress (a sweet dress for apres-beach.....or when you wish it was apres-beach!);J. Crew Collage crystal drop earrings (love the acid bright colours!); Topshop embroidered horse sweat (dreaming of my holiday at the White Stallion Ranch earlier this year); Topshop peplum frill corset (so pretty!); Reading: Australian Gourmet Traveller + MADE Quarterly magazine; Listening to: Just Give Me A Reason Pink/Nate Ruess, and Mountain Sound Of Monsters and Men; Watching: Django Unchained (brilliant, brilliant movie. I watched it while on my looooong Qantas flight)
I am an Australian lawyer turned photographer living in London;
I take a thousand photographs every day - some in my head, some with my camera;
I can't imagine doing anything else with my life- I am totally and utterly in love with my camera and with the people and things I photograph
Clear shape and really warm and comfy colors. Like it :)
