How to be happy like a little girl - The Sublimer

Can you remember when you were at your happiest? With no fear, no judgement and no care in the world. Life was so delightful when we are children.  And the shoot would ultimately to be topped off with my beautiful friend, Anaïs Van Heyghen. Anaïs's style and charm inspired me for this shoot. I adore her glamorous personal style as it is a style so close to my own. Her look is always so put together, from head to toe and her European cool manner makes her sublime. I was immediately drawn to her and wanted to photograph her. I intended  to do a glamour shoot with her and put her in a familiar setting, but when the opportunity arrived to do something, even out of my comfort zone. I was super ecstatic to have her be part of it. I was curious to see her in a vivd universe.

I am not a girl to be seen in mismatches, bright crazy colours and fun accessories. I'm all about the glam chic look, silhouettes and heels. 

The set of the shoot started in the early weekend morning. The sun had barely begun to rise. The room was filled with colour, accessories and tutu skirts. The songs of commercial top dance music played from Youtube. There was a buzz of anticipation and a set only with girls, meant we would soon be having lots of fun. And we did. It was the fastest shoot I ever shot. We were done by midday. It was alot of fun and you can see it in the pictures. Perhaps the only way to be happy like a little girl, is to act like one. Carefree and shamelessly. It's about positive attitude, having a good spirit and always being game to try out new things.  This was my first shoot with a model and it reminded me so much about my past career in film and television. I guess being happy like a little girl is to always live your passions and do what you love. And every creative in that room could feel that cohesive power to manifest. But I bet, no one was more happier than Anaïs. It also helps to find out you are secretly pregnant on the day of the photoshoot. 


Congratulations, Anaïs on your baby girl and thank you.
