Kiss me GentlyHow strange is the world we live in now? With Covid-19 impacting on us, we seem to have developed a little more time to gain new skills and learn new things. Some parts of the world have gone back into lock down while other parts of the world namingly, Australia have managed to control the outbreak and we are now living in a land where we can roam freely and do what we please, well just about ( we still have social distancing ) but coming back to the subject of having more time on our hands so we can do more stuff. The point I am making is, learning new skills. And I wonder how many people did that while they were in lock down? I know I did, I definitely used my time wisely so I was able to fine tune my creative skills that are required to create video’s and design publications like LaMode’s first and second issue’s. I have LaMode’s third issue in the works which should be coming out mid-January, so stay tuned for that. But till then you can enjoy the motion video of “Kiss me Gently’ and two fore coming swim editorials and videos from LaMode in the coming weeks.

Because where there is a negative there is a positive no matter how you look at it you can always abstract something good from a bad situation. If analysed in a way to make you better. Moving on to something that not only I love to do but also everyone that I work with likes to do and that is, create engaging jaw dropping images, and I am not just talking about when we work on LaMode Magazine but when ever the amazing talent I work with, work on their own projects or with any other creatives. So this leads me to introduce my latest editorial “Kiss me Gently” Sun, Sea Spray, and Good Vibes. Sophie Barrah nails it again for LaMode Magazine. Stay sharp for the video dropping next week               Hidden TreasuresLife is what you make of it isn't it? So, when I think of an idea to shoot for LaMode, I don't think about of what I am going to shoot but how I am going to shoot it and what kind of message I am trying to communicate to my audience. That is why post-production in any stills or motion work is so important. Not to mention the photographer’s vision and the message he or she is trying to convey in the images or motion work that they have created. So, for this Culture editorial I shot the historic Olympic Park. It has been a place that I have wanted to document for LaMode for quite a while. So, after finding the time to spend a few hours to walk around and shoot the location. This is how my eyes dropped down and documented Olympic Park. A lot of people wouldn’t think that this place which is 20 years old would still look slightly empty but still have enough energy to able to create a cool atmospheric filled images. I have to admit that flipping them to black and white when in post was a thought process of “I need to make these shots look more punchy and cinematic which I think have done but also at the same time create a story that will be eye catching yet still have a narrative to it. Not to mention editing a video to help add another dimension was something I was always going to produce. Enjoy “Hidden Treasures “                      Moving PicturesMoving pictures, how do you define a still from a short video? Well I can tell you the difference and that is the narrative. A well edited video will tell you a story but a still will tell you a story but in a way that will enlighten emotions and the way you will see that objectifies how you see that subject. I hope that makes sense as a lot of art doesn’t. On a side note Spring has announced its self with some pretty amazing weather here in Sydney, but that doesn’t mean it will stop there. Yes we all know what that means? Swim season.
