Anna Beck Jewelry

Anna Beck (and designer Becky Hosmer) was one of the first designers who hired me to photograph their campaign very early on in my photography career.  A US based brand, this is the 4th year I've had the honor to shoot for them in Bali where they manufacture their beautiful line.  Last year Johnny Abegg and I shot their first short film and last month I just wrapped their new 2013 campaign featuring  a beautiful new luxe turquoise collection (and much more!).  What I love about Anna Beck is they are a big supporter of CNN Hero Robin Lim of Bumi Sehat.  We are launching a short film for the month of May to celebrate Mother's Day and Robin's new clinic fundraiser.  For more on Becky check out Lonny Magazine's April 2013 Issue.

 

Byron and Beyond

It has been a busy year in this little town of Byron and here are a few projects that have been in the works.

First the Aila Blue look book for designer Mai Miyama.  We shot on the beaches of Belongil with model Alyce Crawford.  Take a look at more of Mai's beautiful silky ikat designs here.

Next up was a impromptu shoot with the gorgeous Indonesian model Fa Empel and Spell Designs featured here on The Ben Trovato Blog.  Thank you for all the positive feedback!  We have received so many emails on this one.  I really enjoyed working with Fa, the Spell sisters and Johnny Abegg who made the short film, Freedom in Solitude.

NY cult magazine Lovecat Music Issue #4 with up and coming model Maddie Daisy Dixon as Anita Pallenberg (Rolling Stone muse and Keith Richard's wild woman partner).  I was over the moon to be featured in the issue with the cover and several fashion spreads being shot by Ellen Von Unwerth (Guess ad's fame) as well as many other talented photographers.  Special thanks to Ashlea Penfold who helped transform Maddie to her Anita character as well as the rest of the team that day!

In the works is the new Anna Beck Jewelry campaign in which we (Johnny Abegg and I) jetted off to Bali to shoot Indonesian model Salvita De Corte.  We also were lucky enough to produced an Anna Beck sponsored film on the courageous and giving Robin Lim, 2011 CNN Hero.  All coming soon.

Last but not least get ready for the music webisodes filmed at our summertime beach house project sponsored by Corona.  A surf boho residence where some of Australia's best artists come to unwind, relax and record and we get to capture their creative process.



Busy busy beautiful Byron -  I do love all the creative energy and people you hold in your heart!
