While Vimage Media runs in its own pace, I envision that it will start to grow in new areas and interests. In order to propel this, I’ve been speaking to a photographer named Disa (Dee Photography) who I met when she brought us Sylvia. You may notice a few posts of photos with Sylvia in the previous posts. Disa works through a fantastic network of people and has worked with some prominent people in South Africa. I loved her work and just meeting her, I could see how she likes her photos. Over the next few weeks I drew up an idea to work alongside Dee and she has agreed to work with Vimage. This collaboration will be huge for both of us. As it happens, it was her birthday recently on the 14th June. By accident, I called her on that day to find out she was having a party! She asked me to come and in the excitement, I bought a fine bottle of wine by Nederburg, a sauvignon blanc merlot, 2007 (yes, its a good year). I arrived at the party and we had a great time discussing how we could work together and for the first time I felt a synergy between us to get things going. I even brought my 5D Mark II camera and showed how I did my work. In that process I snapped a few photos of the birthday and it was joyous for everyone. The children were wonderful models to say the least. They were especially chuffed to see photos done in black and white.
