When you look at these pictures you would never believe that Chanel works as a ranger at Botlierskop Game Reserve, practices martial arts, hip hop dance and, top of it, works with Ace Models. That is the true nature of women – transformation. From sensitive and soft to wild and strong.
Through this fashion shoot myself and Chanel were exploring the story of a wild gypsy woman, full of intriguing energy, fire and sensitivity.

Another exciting shoot with beautiful Nicola.
This time we arranged co-creative shoot with a talented photographer Eon Coetzee.
Its quite an interesting experience for two photographers to shoot one model at the same time. But you know what, once you get into it, its double the creativity.
You share ideas as you shoot, so you get to try new angles, settings and tricks, Highly recommend photographers out there to give it a try.
Here is what I got after the co-creative shoot.
Meet beautiful Nicola!
I truly enjoyed our photoshoot together. It is always exciting to work with gorgeous ladies, but it is even more exciting to work with somebody, who can change their look instantly.
Boy, this girl can transform her image: from an innocent angel looking girl to a proud lady with exquisite look.
Nicola is looking for more exciting photo projects in the Garden Route, please contact me for offers and ideas.
Enjoy the photo story of Nicola.
