The Versatile 24-70mm Lens - All You Need to Know

I hope this is not too unprofessional but I would just like to say how unbelievably excited both Adrian and I are to be involved in this first edition of Flat White. Our journey with Christine and Warren started back in 2009 when I used to write for her earlier coffee magazine all those years ago. Our love of coffee and our symbiotic creative relationship has led us to cross paths again and I could not be happier about it. So enjoy our column as often as we are able to be honored with your eyeballs reading the section!

Another love we share with this fabulous couple is a love for Cape Town. This love affair for Adrian and I began in December of last year. We saved up, booked and drove down to Cape Town from Durban for a little annual holiday. Adrian is a Photographer and I am both his wife and his kind of untitled creative sidekick if you will. We dive into adventures of travel and photo making as often as work allows us and this time it led us to fall in love with Cape Town.

First 100 Hipstamatics of 2012

Back on January 1, 2012 Adrian and Jaimi embarked on a 366 day commitment. What we didn’t know is that one photo a day, IS NOT, as easy as it sounds. Cos sometimes you’re just not that into it. But after all it does push your creative button once a day and it has been super fun so far!!

Hipstamatic 366 - Day/Img 008 - The Jaws of Life

So after shooting a fireman’s wedding this weekend and have a super cool fireman friend Dave Leppan of Pinetown Firehouse we decided that today’s Hipstamatic would be “the jaws of life”. We would like to thank the fireman on duty at Gillits Firestation today for allowing us into their firehouse to take these snaps. Thank you for being welcoming and even having a little chat with us! - You guys so need a double story though :).

You gotta wonder how many lives this piece of machinery has saved?

Hipstamatic 366 - Day/Img 007 - The Gentlemen’s Game

So thinking about the Hipstamatic and wondering what kind of story I could write about cricket without confusing the facts of the game, mis-quoating great moments and being under the factual scrutiny of three cricket-experts I decided to google search “top ten cricket blogs” - oh my word - there are a lot of intensley passionate cricket dudes and ladies out there.

Hipstamatic 365 - Day 2 - Kodak Brownie

Day 2 on the Hipstamatic project and you know what, its easy to forget to take a Photograph on any given day. So I am just working on the computer getting all my admin work out the way so I can get back to designing and my gorgeous and clever man is running back and forth behind me with his iPhone and a bunch of props.

And guess what we have a new Hipstamatic thanks to him! This image was taken on one of our advertisement canvases we printed for a recent bridal fair and ontop of it is Adrian’s new bride and joy - his Kodak Hawkeye Brownie. This shot is a little bit edited in another app called PIXLR Adrian and I often trawl through second hand shops and vintage corner shops trying to find lil vintage gems for our camera collection. This one we acquired from Jude at [Hey Judes Antique Barn] in Eston off the N3 freeway to Pietermaritzburg.
