Behind the scenes: My wedding day magazine editorial

Shooting day starts with everyone arriving and having a chat with a cup of coffee and slowly but surely everyone starts unpacking make up kits, photographic equipment, props, clothes and accessories. Now once this process has started you have an enthusiastic team in a "organised" chaotic room.

Yesterday we shot at the Fotofactory in Cape Town with photographer Adel Ferreira. We thought we would share some moments behind the scenes of the editorial we shot for My Wedding Day magazine. This issue will be released in April...so be sure to be on the look out for this one.

After a good 10 hour work day we were happy with a hard days work. Thanks to everyone who contributed to this shoot. We were an amazing team!

An actress & professional dancer: Michelle by Rozanne Lazarus

I was asked to style Michelle who is an actress and professional dancer for her portfolio. We got together with Photographer Adel Ferreira from the Fotofactory who photographed these amazing shots. She wanted pictures to show her diversity as a model, actress and dancer. She's such a lovely girl and I'm sure this wasn't the last time I'd hear from her! Good luck Michelle...I'll keep an eye out for you!

Here's a little sneak peak of the photos:

Vera's Bridal collection photoshoot by Rozanne

 I recently did a shoot with photographer Adel Ferreira from the fotofactory. We drove all the way to Vera's farm where we were spoiled with lunch and wine. Her two daughters were the models for the shoot and we shot in and around the farm house. We had so much fun and didn't want to leave so soon. Special thanks to Elizabeth wedding gowns for supplying the wedding dresses for this shoot.
