Back in mid-2019, I'm quite generous at spending some of my money for film photography. So, I shoot this in 35mm with Ilford Delta 400 and Medium Format with Provia 100f . Thanks to @rewindphotolab for the developing and scanning!
The boys in this photo were from @fivetwentymgt . At that time, I haven't shoot male models for ages. This shoot might be the starting point who makes me shoot more male model afterwards.
So here we are, Brock and Robbie from Fivetwenty Men division in the magnificent #35mm and #mediumformat
Also, thanks to Noona Nichole for the makeup!

I start doing street photography when I was in an undergraduate study back in Indonesia. At that time, I was joining a uni photography club. They invited me to stroll around the city of Bandung and taking a photo on the street. At first, I find it boring and tiring because it took some time and efforts to do streets photography.
Fast forward to a few years later, I've been living in Sydney for 2 years. At my spare time, I like to go to a book store and doing some free reading at it (sorry, don't have money to buy lol). I found and images of an angel on the street of New York and I find it fascinating.
It was Peter Lindbergh's in December 1993 and his photos for Harper's Bazaar, where Amber Valletta was given a role as an angel who had untouchably arrived in New York. This shoot was mended to be one of the most delicate and energetically series he has made.
I realized I need to recreate this photo set with my own style and will take it in Sydney CBD. As we live in modern time, we have a luxury of the internet. In there I found a sun compass when I can check the position of the sun at the exact time. In addition, I also have a look myself to check the good shooting spot for this.
I found out the street photography course I took back when I was in undergraduate study taught me a lot about this kind of shooting.
Last but not least, thank you to @phoebsalot @ebonyeathorne and @hunterfranksmakeup for willing to join me strolling the Sydney CBD. I know is tiring but the photo is amazing. Thank you so much!

I got this idea when I was strolling on Pinterest. I thought it would be a good idea to combine mime makeup and cool styling.
The concept is about a girl who just has a heartbreak. Her sadness will be portrayed with pantomime makeup. No matter how hard she tried to forget, only time can heal her.
Firstly, before we did the shoot, I was meeting with @emilylylylylyly the stylist somewhere in Waterloo area to talk about the concept. Then, she starts showing her portfolios by asking me to go to a news agency and grabbing some magazines on the shelves. I'm impressed because how in the world an expert stylist like her will take my invitation for an unpaid gig? I guess I'm lucky.
Secondly, this is my first time meeting with @anacostamua She is a Portuguese currently residing in Sydney. She has a great mind when it comes to makeup ideas. It was her idea to add on the makeup every time we change the looks. I'm glad I met Ana!
Lastly, we choose @sofofieo because I know she can understand fully this particular concept. Some info about her: has a dutch background, a pro figure skater and love animals.
