Model genivieve on the estee lauder shoot

ESTEE Lauder backstage

 After 24 hours of traveling from South of France to Dubai via taxi, train, another taxi, a flight , a bus, another flight and finally a taxi to our apartment we were finally home. We were slightly delayed at the airport because our luggage missed the flight ( this seems to be a normal occurance ) and we had to fill out a few forms to insure delivery of our bags . 5 am ... we had 2 hours to sleep before having to wake up and head over to OKKU in the Monarch Hotel for the Estee Lauder photoshoot. We worked with Blair Patterson - Estee Lauder New Yorks Brand makeup artist . Thats the great thing about being a photographer , you get to meet people from all around the world. We shot with model genevieve from Bareface dubai. The shoot came out great and will be uploading the retouched beauty shots in a few days.

BACKSTAGE on Cape Town fashion shoots 2

We had an awesome shoot today in Cape Town.
I rented Roodebloem studios www.roodebloemstudios.co.za/
and must say i was really impressed by how professional and friendly  they are. We were welcomed with a big pot of delicious filter coffee . Today shane my gangster friend was assisting me . Jessica Bombshell was the model, she is with vision models and lives in New York and was lucky to get her for a day of shooting ! Justin Jurd was the stylist and danielle VC did the hair and make up


The theme was military and Jessica pulled it off so fucking well ! 


As soon as i get a second chance i will upload the backstage shots of our first shoot in Cape Town. It was a night shoot and we ended up shooting in various places in town !


im off to bed because we have a early start and shooting at the car graveyard in kraaifontein !

shooting MIKYAJY beauty shoot today

 Today we are shooting Mikyajy's new seasonal makeup looks. Shooting at The Studio in the courtyard. Its a particularly difficult shoot as Mark Sherman ( www.markshermanfilm.com ) is filming with sound. So no talking, no music and no mobiles  on set . Even rolling cigarettes in studio is not allowed.

Mikyajy is a makeup range targeting the young society.  I shoot loads of campaigns with Mikyajy.

here attached is a little video of the behind the scenes

L'Officiel Magazine - Fashion Editorial

Photographer - Candy Kennedy
Styling - Stuart Robertson
Hair and Makeup - Dennie Pasion
Model - Gabriella Kuti

The latest shoot for L'Officiel magazine. The entire shoot was shot in Stuarts Apartment. L'Officiel mag is a sub mag of ITP . ITP has just moved premises to Media City and has also opened there new large studio space. Unfortunately they only allow inhouse ITP photographers to use the studio and all Freelance photographers working with ITP have to pay extra to use it and seeing budgets with mags are always low , we ended up shooting this editorial in the apartment of Mr Robertson, in Teecom , Dubai. We shot from around 9am until 10 pm. It ended up being a very long day but we had a great energetic team and loads of Redbull which seemed to help! Gabriella Kuti the model, was incredible. Never seen a model jump so far and high in 6 inch stillettos ! Check her on Facebook - Gabriellla Kuti . Please let me know what you think of this shoot !
