How did you get your start in photography?
I took photos of my girlfriend at home and on holiday.. She was hot. And often half naked.

I don’t know man. I live between Llundudno beach, Signal Hill and Kloof street in Cape Town.

I’m only into models I actually like beyond looks. So I would need to meet them to know if I’m into them.

Nonchalantly clever, silly and cool girls. So yeah, basically hot babes.

The human condition. And I guess dreams.

The sound of silence.

A publisher at Randomhouse/Prestel called me up and was all like ‘hey do you wanna do a book’ and I was all like, ‘ok’. I have a new book out with them early 2015.
