I love seeing fashion shows, I love the moment the catwalk lights up, the music starts and seeing models strut their stuff in the latest collections. As much as I love that, what I love more is seeing fashion shows backstage. Each designer is different, some pose a serene presence over everyone, some are energetic while others are just plain hectic. Like people, they come in all shapes and sizes and I love them all!
A challenge I posed upon myself this RAFW was to shoot backstage with a street photographer’s eye, in the tradition of Cartier-Bresson, Rober Frank, Martin Parr and the likes. A cheeky challenge, yes, hectic, most likely, fun, hells yess!
Marvel at my reportage master pieces below :p

All done and dusted, everyone looking at the live screen during the final walk.
Well, what d’ya think? How did you like my fashion reportage?
