Flying out to Cape Town to shoot is always a treat. This one was special. One of my favorite brands, @newline.halo asked me to do a profile shoot on @seb.simons and it felt like everything clicked from beginning to end.
In Sebastianās interview the following answers resonated a lot with me:
āRunning keeps me grounded. Itās taught me patience and consistency. Itās also where I do most of my thinking. It helps me process things and make better decisions.ā

A recent trip to Scotland with the epic @hoalen team. We spent several days exploring the rugged Scottish coastline on the Isle of Mull. Grateful to work with a brand I truly connect with while exploring a place worth remembering.
These images are really special to me and I hope youāll enjoy looking at
them as much as I enjoyed creating them.
All photos were shot on disposable analog cameras. Both on land and in the water. It was a morning in February just south of Cape Town and @seb.simons and I met before sunrise and started our mission.
My idea was to once not rely on all the technology that is packed in todays cameras and to create something special with a little plastic box that holds a film and has a shutter button.
The most fun was navigating in the water and trying to be in the right spot at the right time for Seb surfing by and then having one shot. I had 2 cameras with 27 photos each and after about 2 hours it was done and the wait for the lab began.
For sure I could have created different photos with a ārealā camera. There were some epic moments that disposable cameras just canāt capture in the same way. But being limited and having to rely on my eyes and skills as a photographer were a challenge I enjoyed immensely.
Let me know what you think about these shots if they resonate with you.
Aus you were magic! š¦šŗš¦šŖ
3 months of exploring your coastal treasures. Van life from one beautiful bay to the next. @thehealingroot_ and I cannot wait to be back! Thanks @fivetwentymgt for making it all possible.
Onto the next adventure in the EU šŖšŗ
Spent 6 days hiking in the mountains. We had snow, rain, sunshine - all the elements to keep us on our toes while carrying everything we needed on our backs. When everything takes effort, one cannot help but be present. Thank you @jameseve94@em_harty & @thehealingroot_ for a magical trip.
