Last Friday, I had the opportunity to photograph two shows at the London Fashion Weekend. The event was held at the beautiful Saatchi Gallery. We had a small briefing by Canon company, telling us what we must and must not do at the fashion event. One might think that it's pretty simple to shoot a ramp walk, but it's not. The change in lighting setups and fast movement by the models make it quite a challenge. Well at the same time, what differentiates you from the photographer sitting beside you in the same photographers pit is something to think about. Catching the right moment and angle of the legs of the model and dress is important. Photographers are expected to post-process and mail the photographs during the short period between shows. These are my pictures at my first ever fashion event. I had to place myself on the spot with the right view in the photographer's pit with 50 others and stay there for the whole show. This was such a new experience for me, opening up creativity through restricted time and movement.
I'd like to thank Canon and London College of Communication, the University of the Arts London for giving me this wonderful opportunity.
Have a great weekend. Keep clicking!
