Nokia&Fernandes as props

Sometimes at portfolio shoots we try to see where the models their strengths are. Are they commercial or are they high fashion. Will they do better at lingerie, or better with haute couture. So we dress them in all kinds of different outfits, and also use some props sometimes.

A journey cancelled

For months I have been looking forward to today.. careful planning of things to do, to arrange and cancel. As today would be my big trip to Curacao! For 4 months staying with my best friends, doing what I love most, and the little one was very excited to go to school in Curacao.
The past months we packed a suitcase already full of little things we could use there, got the special mosquito cream since last time my little girl was eaten alive.. Some extra summer clothes were bought, and schoolteachers got in touch with each other. I broadened my network in Curacao, and was looking very much forward meeting everyone or seeing some again. Started a blog to tell everyone about my preparations coming to Curacao, and even got accepted to write for a big travel magazine about living abroad, children and poverty. So all very exciting!!

Different Cultures and Colours

So a few weeks ago I was very lucky to shoot a few gorgeous girls for their portfolio and setcards. I can’t publish all because it is for their agency, but here are a few photos:)
I really like the mix of girls, since in the Netherlands we have so many mixes, and 100s of different cultures. Its a shame that you can’t see that back in our magazines or TV. But then that goes for our stunning volupteous women as well.
