a little while ago i teamed up with canadian photographer alan chan. he was in town for a short visit and we decided to collab on a beach story. we headed to big wave bay early in the morning on a weekday, thinking it would be at the least semi private. we were completely wrong. there happened to be some sort of school excursion and nat basically had an entourage of children swarming around her everywhere she went, making it pretty difficult to shoot, and even more difficult when she had to get changed. she handled it like a pro, and we got some really great shots in the end.

check out the shoot below with some added outtakes.

"happy valley"

i've said it before, but the best thing about doing what i do is i have the chance not only to work with friends, but to meet and work with other creatives. recently i had the chance to work with an amazing team put together by the team at the backroom - a new online store based in hong kong.

once again i was able to work with my good friend nat, as well as renowned australian photographer adrian mesko whose work has been seen in such publications as l'officiel hommes, vogue, gq & russh. it was a great day, lots of fun and always kept interesting with my homie zo (zohaer majhadi) of fashion label pigalle, directing the shoot.

a few weeks ago i showed you some behind the scenes shots from the recent konzepp ss13 lookbook i styled featuring my mates jordy and nat. there's been a great response with sites like hypebeast picking it up. check it out below with pieces from wood wood, libertine-libertine, oliver sweeney, gala curios and many more.

running the streets

it's been raining quite a lot lately which has made it extremely difficult to plan a location shoot in hk. luckily, the sun decided to come out for a day so i managed to get the s/s13 look book for design/lifestyle/fashion space 'konzepp' underway.

it was pretty rad as i had 2 of my good friends model for it, jordy and nat. it makes the day so much easier working with friends, it does't really even feel like work, just chilling. we wandered the streets of sheung wan, a cool little neighbor hood that always seems to surprise me, there's just so many dope hidden spots to shoot.

check out some behind the scenes shots i took below.

a look back...

looking back over last year i had so many great experiences and opportunities. i was able to travel to many places i've been dying to visit for sometime, collaborate and meet great people along the way who i have formed great friendships with and also dabble in some unexpected and exciting projects.

here's a quick glimpse back into 2012.
