Photo shoot

‘It’s a feature’ will be our motto for 2006. Saturday we did a photo shoot for the billboards Bram’s going to design for his friend André, who lived in Serowe with him around 1980. Next to his other business, bo Andre recently started selling luxury kitchen appliances, and this venture has to be marketed.
Looking at the results we’re very proud of the whole team. Seeing the results you would never guess we used the showroom as a studio. André’s son Mata did the lighting, standing on a household ladder with a builder’s lamp. Maud made the list of props and did some styling. André & director sales Keshav assembled the props. The models are a carwash-owner and his girlfriend. And, most important, Keshav’s wife did the photofood preparations. Which tortured us with delicious smells during five hours of shooting, and was excellent, as we discovered during our after party, when we finally were allowed to taste. In fact the only professionals were Bram and bo Eric (also Serowe, around 1980) – a real designer and a real photographer.
During the shoot Keshav kept jumping up and down enthusiastically, shouting ‘picture this, it’s a feature, picture this’. He jumped in joy the same way when telling how deliciously his wife cooks. This guy really is in love with his appliances!
