Fashion shoot at Chez Charlene
The winter 2012 collection for F Wilson Fashion was photographed at Chez Charlene wedding venue. Melissa Minne did the hair and make-up, we love the way the styling looked in the end.

F Wilson Fashion in Bride’s Diary
When F Wilson Fashion decided to advertise in Bride’s Diary 2011 edition, they asked me to do the photography and artwork. We have been working together for a year now, and I had a good understanding of their unique style and design. We decided that the ad should reflect their fantasy style. One of their brides was kind enough to come in and pose in her dress, a week before her wedding. The dress was made of an oyster coloured silk and embellished with Chantilly lace they purchased in Venice. I fell in love with the dress the moment I saw it, and was very pleased with the results. The second dress was their design for the 2010 Bridal Africa designer competition. The huge detachable skirt covered a little party number. The blonde model, Bianca, is a favourite of Frits and Johan, and she is so much fun to work with. Thank you to Mia for the make-up and Brigitte for the hair. The first spread is the one used in the magazine. Bride’s Diary 2011 edition is on sale now at all fine bookstores and newsagents.
2011 Expo4Brides
This year’s Expo was well attended with lits of eager brides looking for the best ideas and vendors. I had my usual bright yellow corporate colours to decorate my stand. I shared a space with F Wilson Fashion design and had a few images of their dresses on display. The photosession was done last year for and advertisement for Bride’s Diary magazine. The beautiful model, Bianca, also showcased their designer choice dress on the runway. I took some shots behind the scenes and on the runway as well.
