This is perfection, I am speechless.

Vintage Versace

This was one of the very first Editorials I ever shot, for a now long gone Magazine called " Mirabella".
I was still in school back then and I loved that Versace Dress that the Stylist handed me.
The Dress had just been shown on the Milan Catwalk for Fashion Week a couple of days before and we were the first Crew to shoot it.
I remember clearly that we had to rush to take the Picture since it was being picked up by a courier to be sent to a back-then little known Singer called Jennifer Lopez to be worn for the Grammy Awards.
We had 15 minutes.
Nobody on the shoot really knew who she was back in the year 2000.
But after she wore this dress, with the dangerously low neckline, she appeared in all the Frontpages of Newspapers all over the World and a Star was born.
But I wore it first.... :)

Me and Hugh Grant for Vanity Fair by Annie Leibovitz 2003

I remember when my London Agency called to tell me I got a booking for a Vanity Fair Editorial, shot by Annie Leibovitz with Hugh Grant, i could barely contain myself. I knew that I was only being shot like a 'Prop', but I didn't care.
When I arrived at the Savoy Hotel in London where the Shoot was taking place, the Production Manager sent me to the Room where they were doing Hair and Make-up.
But she made a mistake and I ended walking into the wrong Room and Hugh Grant was lying on a Bed in Boxer shorts, reading the Times Newspaper and grinning at me.
I didn't know what to say, but it was a comedy classic moment, but I was delighted and grinned straight back at him. He said: " Hair and Make-up is over there, just walk through that door."
Once everybody was on Set, ready to take the Picture, Mr. Grant just disappeared under the Table, 3 min. later the Picture was done.
Ms. Leibovitz shots very fast and gives precise Directions, everybody that day was so professional, it was just a Pleasure.
We shot a few more, but they didn't get published.
But I am happy with what I got, a great Moment in my Modelling History.

Funny Face with Audrey Hepburn

This little clip from the movie 'Funny Face' with Audrey Hepburn and Fred Astaire is so wonderful because it sums up very well what happens at a Fashion shoot.
