Shooting on the streets of Mumbai!









Can we go more global?! 
We met these guys from South Africa in India,Mumbai. 
They were the people that did the hair&make-up during our shoots....but, then we discovered that Charl was also a very talented photographer! 
Soooo...we had to do it; a shoot on the streets of Mumbai....!! 
What an amazing experience!

getting ready....!













...preparing it all by hand...the dying, the printing, the stitching and even all the embroideries!! It seems impossible, but we found a place where they still have the knowledge to do it!
Working 'on the spot' to get our *DIED* collection ready to be presented!

Holga pics from Brazil..!













..some from Rio, some from other magic places 
like Jericoacoara and Trancoso in Brazil.
They have 2 thing in common; they're shot with the Holga 
and they 'survived' all airport X-ray checks!
