Hearts

Silver Linings and such...

 It's such a nice feeling to to find all sorts of pretty and interesting things when you're moving house and sorting all your years of accumulated junk...

 

 Old Instamatic camera, Parker pen, red dinky sports car, heart shaped button, swallow necklace and a pony brooch in a pretty velvet box...

 My favorite egg cup

My cat however, does not like the idea of moving

Rainy Day Monday

Current inspiration, apart from the gorgeous rain today is a gorgeous fashion photographer, Camilla Akrans

Her photos have a wonderful sense of mood and emotion as well as classic style.

On another note, My own Photographic endeavors are paying off, I will be exhibiting as an 'Emerging Creative' at the 2010 Design Indaba held in Cape Town, South Africa! I'm really excited 'cause its a great way to get to meet important people in the industry and get to know lots of talented creatives doing the same thing as me...trying to make money from our passion for creativity.I'll be exhibiting my 'Fashion stories' and hopefully meeting lots of people who want me to take photos for them too!

things that I did in November

So, in an effort to make my photography blog more interesting and a bit more photographic, I thought I would share some photo's I took this last month. I didn't take very many as I was in the process of moving out of my flat but I did manage a little fashion shoot for a friend who's a fashion designer. here's some of the shots from the photo session.

 

All the clothes are designed by Caryn Fourie and these were shot on location at our university, would you believe? I love all the stark grey and textures in contrast with her lovely designs.

Website finnished!

I have officially finished my new -look website and it will hopefully be up by friday. Thats at http://www.sashahphotography.com Until then, here's a photo by my favorite photographer. Tim Walker, you are a God.

P.S.Check out this really cool website I found, Issuu, I uploaded my fashion editorial magazine, and now it looks like a real magazine! the pages flip over and everything! http://issuu.com/sashahphotography/docs/fashioneditorials2009

SO, after a very long hiatus in which I finished my photography degree portfolio, and all the other banter that goes with it, I am back and really irritated with trying to update my blog layout etc. The post font colour keeps going back to orange...It might have something to do with the fact that I kept changing the template...it may not....anyway. I don't really like orange.

But onto other things. I will hopefully be updating this as often as possible, and for now, here are some pretty pictures, The rest of my portfolio can be viewed at http://sashahphotography.carbonmade.com

Part of the series, "The day dream' inspired by pre raphaelite art and Ophelia in the river
