VND – The Winter Catalog

Viktoria Novak (from Viktoria Novak Design) is a well known name in the fashion industry in Canberra.

I had a chance to finally meet her for a quick chat about an upcoming collaboration between VND and Nomad Photography.

When walking through her wardrobe I had the idea to do a winter shoot… It’s a bit out of time but we didn’t really have a proper summer per say so the idea was kinda cool.

Within 2 hours we decided to set up a shoot within the next 2 days. Needless to say that to gather a team for such project, even it’s a small one, it needed a bit of preparation and also we needed to cast for models.

Lucky enough, within our networks (thanks to Facebook) we had more than needed models for the shoot.

Thanks again for our models (Daisy Milo, Samantha Lawson Fletcher, Sky Mackenzie) for having been up to the task of wearing winter jackets under the burning sun.

A good thank you to everyone involved and the credits go to:

Viktoria Novak: MUA, Stylist, Designer

Tristen Cassar: Hair Stylist and lighting assistant

Lyndell Roberts: Photography Assistant and BTS

We also had a surprise guest: Robert Coppa, who lent a helping hand with some BTS and lighting assistance.

Mega thanks to Viktoria’s mum and dad for providing us with warm welcome into their house and for the drinks and food and Viktoria’s sister for helping us with some posing in the shed and helping us scouting the areas.

I used a Mola Setti for this shoot.

Place for some images.

Meredith on Sunday

Quick post between two edits for fashion and wedding shoots.

Following the bridal shoot on Saturday with Sophie and Nina, I headed out on a cold Sunday to shoot Meredith.

It was a last minute organised shoot and I had invited a friend photographer, Robert Coppa, to have some fun.

Kirsten Pawlicki was the Make Up Artist in charge and we had some outfits designed by some local talents to play with:

Dress designed by Jenifer Apps

Costumes by Christine Pawlicki and Racheal Designs for the pink, french cancan and Lady Gaga red outfit.

Also included are a few images of the BTS (behind the scene) shot by Robert Coppa and myself.

We used a Canon 5D Mark II, Canon 1D Mark IV and a Nikon D3s.

Another BTS

So long that I haven’t posted in my blog…

I’ve been so busy with shooting and editing that I almost forgot to update my journal.

Just to let you know that I am working on the project M2 and it is meant to be bigger, better and definitely takes more time to set up …

In the mean time, here are a few images captured behind the scene, that’s why the name BTS, from a shoot with a fellow photographer, Robert Coppa.

The model is Divya that I had the joy to shoot for Project M.

MUA is Kirsten, that I will have the joy to work with in the project M2 as well as Priya, the Hair stylist.

Check back this space soon for more.
