A Day At Portebello Market

Back in September I had the pleasure to work with the fashion blogger - Elle Lee (www.elleiconlee.com), a very bubbly lady and one of the top fashion blogger based in Hong Kong.


During her stay for the London Fashion Week, we set out to do a few small series of her strolling around London with her amazing outfits, as part of her blog and for her audience.

Here's part one, just two girls and a camera, enjoying ourselves strolling around Portebello Market, one of the most famous market in the world. And probably, the most colourful too!

For the full story of Elle's journey at the Portebello Market, you can now read it here:

To my experience, Elle is very different to a lot of fashion blogger I followed, and definitely one of the more poetic one, with lovely flare in her writing, if you are not following her yet, I highly recommend it ;)

Here's a selection of our day.

Supermodel Coco Rocha Strikes 1,000 Poses In 360 Degrees

To me, supermodel Coco Rocha has always been a very inspirational figure, not just because she's a supermodel, her work ethnic, but also her daring nature and often stand up to address important issues which made her a rather important role models to a lot of women.

So when I hear about her latest adventure with photographer Steven Sebring, publishing a 2,000-page tome from HarperCollins called The Study of Pose, I got very excited indeed!!!




Rocha has always been known in the circle as the 'Queen of the Pose', and in this e-book, featuring Rocha in a simple leotard, under a single light source, audience gets to see Rocha contorts herself into 1000 different poses in 360 degree!! I'm sure this will not only be an importance reference source for any new models, but also invaluable to photographers who want to get references to relate to their ideas and concepts. From seeing some samples of the book, I think a lot of traditional figure artists will also love it to bits!!

[NEWS]: Important Changes to Facebook Page

A few days ago, Facebook has forced my personal page (reserved for photography businesses & contacts) into a public business page. So a lot of people on my contact list is now forced to change to as a "follower" on my new business page on facebook (Here: https://www.facebook.com/berna.v.photography).

Unfortunately, because a business page doesn't work the same as a personal page, i.e. I cannot initiate a private message; therefore I have no choice but to open up a new personal page that is solely for business use only. As a freelance photographer, we rely a lot on personal contacts, to maintain a relationship with anyone who has a potential to work together on a project. And Facebook's decision on forcing my personal page into a new business page has taken that away completely.

So if you were wondering why you were being invited to be friend with me again, please don't be alarm, it is not a fake account.





I'd be very honoured to have you on my friend list again.

Before this happened, I already have an existing business page, therefore I'd be closing the old one up shortly. If you are a follower on the old one but not the new one, you can follow me on my new page here: https://www.facebook.com/berna.v.photography




The old business page that is going to be deleted shortly is this one:

Thank you.
