Nandos Advert

Nandos ran an advert based on ANCYL and seems like they got an interesting response back... "If Nando's does not withdraw the adverts, the ANCYL will mobilise the people of South Africa to take militant action against Nando's and anything associated with Nando's," it said. Asked for clarification on what the league meant by "militant action", Malema would only say: "You will see it when it happens."

One & Only

The previous week we were called out for the opening of the One & Only in the V&A Waterfront, what a spectacular hotel and simpy amazing evening. Ended up covering the red carpet opening with all the celebrity interviews which went down really well...

Deep Blue Sea

A call the night before and a quick update from my good old crew mates, James Moolenschoot and Peter Lambert we were heading out to the deep blue sea. Boat preped and equipment loaded we launched at first light...and off we went. Some tasters of what we came across even though the swell was dropping and not as strong as we hoped. Yes there are better shots to be seen but not yet ;)

Sir Cecil Beaton

A name and icon that changed the way we shoot the industry.

Sir Cecil Beaton, who died in 1980 at the age of 76, was one of the world's greatest celebrity photographers. In addition to immortalising stars and royalty on film, he also designed the costumes for My Fair Lady and Gigi. After one photo session with the Queen Mum, he admitted nicking her scented hankie as a keepsake.

spend some time on google and view his works, very interesting
