SAFARI

This story was a must have one-when going to Africa, you can not go there for the first time and not do a Safari shoot. The Aguilla-farm was unfortunately flooded because of the bad weather just before we came, so no cheetahs, elephant babies or lions for us. Instead we went to the Animal Park, near the hospital in Cape Town, where there are a selection of zebras and springboks and such running "wild" in this big park on the hillside.






















































I did not want a typical safari shoot, hands on with hats, shorts and guns-instead I wanted to have animal prints in all the frames, and mix this with some more preppy items, and keep it feminine and sophisticated.

With natural makeupm with hints of shimmer, and long wavy hair-she looked very strong and beautiful, this coming ss 2009 Ralph Lauren is all about Safari-but also with a more glamorous touch. Like every summer almost-there is always room for Safari inspired outfits, like silk jumpsuits in earth colors or that little beige shorts, and long floaty dresses in the evening ligth.
