Out and about....freedom

I have always thought of Rosalind of Clothes Cameras and Coffee as beautiful and never would have thought that her beauty could grow but it has. We were sitting chatting in this wonderful location before we took the pictures and I couldn't help but notice the shift. To me it felt size-mic so I mentioned it to Rosalind. As we discussed it, it became apparent to me that it is freedom that has made her bloom even further. The freedom of turning 18. The joy of at last being an adult and knowing that she will be taken seriously. The freedom of finishing exams and for the 1st time in years having the summer spread out in front of her to do with what she pleases. The excitement and expectation of going to Uni in the autumn. All these wonderful things are radiating from her and it was joyful to spend the afternoon in that glow.

Out and about....parisian chic in the east end

Hard to believe that this is shot in the east end of London on one of my favourite streets, with one of my favourite people, as it has such a French flavour. It was wonderful to wander through the east end with Rosalind. We even made it up to Columbia Road market where Rosalind bumped into other bloggers she knew and was photographed again there by them. Rosalind is also posting her side of our story today so you can pop over to see her post by following this link.
In the pictures Rosalind is wearing a Beyond Retro vintage dress, her great-grandmothers jewellery, coat and Kangol beret from a charity shop and eBay heels.

Out and about....a month in the city

From Fashionistable

Those of you who have been following me for a while will have met the wonderful Rosalind from Clothes, Camera's and Coffee before. If this is the first time you are meeting her I urge you to follow the link and check out her blog you will be very glad you did. Last year (while she was still 16) Rosalind won the Vogue Talent Competition 2011. Part of her prize is to work for Vogue for a month, we met for lunch today and she is certainly enjoying her time there. There are great things ahead for Rosalind, watch this space, no, actually watch this one.
Today for work she wore a dress by Lazzari, vintage shirt and shoes and is carrying a bag that used to belong to her grandma. All her accessories are also vintage.
Thank you for your lovely thoughts re my camera. They replaced the shutter beautifully and as you can see I am happily up and running again. Love Dvora Xxxx

Out and about....The Incredible Miss Jana

From Fashionistable

During London Fashion Week Rosalind from Clothes Cameras and Coffee came to stay. If you haven't met her already I urge you to follow the link have a look at her work. She is an amazing young woman, it was wonderful to have her around. Not surprisingly she is a favourite of many of the other fashion week photographers too. Rosalind is stylish, beautiful and also a woman of substance, being one of the youngest winners of the Vogue Talent Contest, she will intern with them this summer. And in line with her ethical, values and background she was reporting for Oxfam during the shows.

Hot on the heels of her talent competition win in Vogue, Rosalind was in town for London Fashion Week. I was privilaged to spend more time with this wonderful young woman this year and we managed a couple of shots away from Somerset House. The 1st 2 shots were taken on Waterloo Bridge (which is my favourite in London because of the views in both directions of the city). The next 3 were taken after the Masha Ma show in Covent Garden. The 1st of these 3 was the one we had set up. The 2nd 2 were a gift as by pure chance we stumbled across this wonderful leafy location in the middle of the city. You can take the girl out of the country.... Our final shot was in Somerset House on Rosalind's last day in town. She had just had lunch with her Dad and honorary Uncle and popped by to say hello before heading home. Thank You Rosalind it was a pleasure.
I have just noticed she has just posted about her trip to London too. So you can pop over there with this link to read her perspective on her time at LFW.

You can view my MFW Vogue shots here. All 39 up there now.
