The event was coordinated by the delightful Reena Augustine – who asked me to come along photograph the event… Here are some of the highlights of the Fashion Parade :
Event Photo Shoot – St Judes Charity Fashion Parade
The School of St Jude is an incredible school in Tanzania, established by Australian – Gemma Sisia – to “fight Poverty through Education”. Each year they select the brightest students from the poorest of the poor in Tanzania, and “support” them through am amazing education programme – from primary thruugh to tertiary qualifications.
I was asked to shoot the St Judes Charity Fashion Parade by organiser Bernice Kelly – who did an amazing job coordinating a very successful event.
Events like this are challenging to photograph because the lighting is of low “mood” lighting. This means that you almost always have to use a flash, which can be a bit of a distraction to attendees… You also rarely get an opportunity to setup shots and re-takes are virtually impossible as well.
Here are some of my favourite shots from the night :
