30 - this is as easy as it gets

life here is so fast paced yet chill at the same time. at a blink of an eye you can miss so much if you dont seize the moment. it's also survival of the fittest. you gotta fend for yourself or you'll end up with nothing and nobody. everyone's here for themselves and if you think for once that you can trust someone with your life, think again. i mean i probably saved almost 100 friends on my imaginary facebook account, but this doesnt mean anything. in the end it's all just you. and this is the greatest moral of my trip here: INDEPENDENCE.

so while everyone is just fucking around on their own terms (literally or non-literally), i am busy making art and taking advantage of the nice scenery, both as photo backdrops and for personal visual satisfaction.

here are some behind-the-scenes from my shoot with ashley marie miles. so far one of the best photogs ive worked here in SA. im still thinking of whether or not i should post the finished products, so keep this post in mind and when or if i do decide to post, you'll see how it all the magic happend :)

i think ive gotten used to having the driver on the "wrong" side of the car.
