Kapoeta and Unbound Ether Productions

The following photos are a culmination of a three day effort with a bunch of ridiculously wonderful and stunning girls who I am proud to now say have become my friends. The objective of these shoots were to document Kapoeta by Ambica's stunning feather earrings and my equally stunning reversable, multi-faceted silk skirts which I am now in the business of delivering to the fantastic Kenyan people. I can't really complain about life when I'm surrounded by things that I love: silks, feathers, wicked cool girls and photography.

A Kapoeta and Unbound Ether Production

As much as wildlife photography thrills me to a thousand bits, making beautiful photos with beautiful girls (the inside and out kind) in the middle of a forest is second to the thrill.

After a couple of weeks of plannin' 'n' jammin' our way through a collaborative shoot, Ambica and I finished with some slammin' photos. Of course, I can only pretend to take a fraction of the credit as the girls who volunteered their charm and good looks all for the sake of feathery fashion and some outdoorsy thrills, as well as the Karura Forest Park Guards who were super cooperative, helpful and totally supportive of our mad ideas, and big thanks to Tracy and Sisi who were super creative with the make-up. And of course, Ambica, my partner in crime and creative cat behind the fabulous feather earrings and other leather designs which you get a taste of on these girls.

The shoot was broken up into 5 parts as homage to the 5 elements: fire, earth, air, water & ether. Although, we can't say everything went according to plan, but as J. Lennon liked to say, 'life happens when you're busy making plans,' and as it turns out, he was right.

Anyway, here we go!
