My friend Danya has just been certified as a Yoga instructor and so I shot some photos for her in Tokai forest using my new off-camera flash gear. The setting sun made for some beautiful lighting and, even though we were chased away from our first shooting location, the spot we ended up at worked [...]
Video: Introducing Barbers Cat
I shot this promotional video for a local jazz and blues band. It was all shot on one night at Obz Cafe in Cape Town with Canon 550D and a 50mm f1.4, and 24mm f2.8. I grabbed footage while they were playing and managed to get two of the band members outside in a break [...]
Video: iThemba Kids Camp
I was sponsored recently to go along to the iThemba Camp in KZN, and shoot them a promotional video. It was such a great weekend and I have always found what they do so inspiring. The challenge was to shoot something which would make you feel what these camps are like for the kids, rather [...]
Video: Stimorol Taste Twist
I was asked to shoot a behind the scenes video for the new Stimorol Taste Twist ad campaign, so I spent a Saturday afternoon on the steps of the court house in Cape Town surrounded by lighting rigs and extras. The TV and Radio Adverts in the footage are obviously not my material, just the [...]
Video: Soil For Life Promo Spots
Yuppiechef, a local Cape Town based company selling high end cookware, are running an initiative called Eat for the Earth to support the great work done by Soil for Life. I was asked to go along and shoot some promotional spots to be used on the website, making people aware of the great work they [...]
Photos: Philos Food Shots
My friend Liz is an amazing Chef and, after a successful run as a Cafe owner, she is changing directions to catering events. I went through to take some shots of some of food items for her upcoming website. Being my first foray into the world of food photography I think they came out pretty [...]
Photos: Barbers Cat Live
Barbers Cat are a new jazz/blues band who have hit the scene in Cape Town. I went through a few nights ago and shot some pics for them. The lighting was terrible, as usual at these live band events, but I think it made for some nice moody shots and added depth to the black [...]
Photos: Danya’s 30th
Danya recently turned 30 and these are some of the pics I took at the party she held at the Buena Vista Social Club in Greenpoint. It was a good night, with great friends, a ‘Charlie’s Bakery’ birthday cake, and one wild Canadian! Happy birthday Danya.
Video: Warren and Jen’s Wedding Highlights
Warren and Jen got married on the 19th of February at Leopard Lodge in Magaliesburg, north of Joburg: these are the highlights. I shot the whole thing on my 550D and used a 50mm f1.4, and a 24mm f2.8 prime lens. The music is “Africa” by Toto and “Beautiful Day” by U2.
Video: Ithemba Projects Promo
I love the work these guys do. I was down in KwaZulu Natal for the month of June 2010, doing some speaking in a local church, and while I was there I got swept up in the wonderful work iThemba Projects do. I followed them around and shot video for a week, and, trust me, [...]
