New Faces 09

I've been working on some big things recently but it's always beneficial to dedicate time to passion projects. During my travels and random wanders I come across many interesting characters. Some I never see again and some become lifelong friends. All are equally valuable in my learning about the world and seeing it from a new perspective. We're all just a million masks of god but can only experience this existence one at a time. I love using these posts as a little time machine, a reminder of the journey so far and the road ahead, yet undiscovered. Who knows, maybe our paths will cross in the future and you'll get a huge lens pointed in your face. Just remember that life is a dance, it's more enjoyable when you don't take it too seriously.

New Faces 06 // Journal 90

We're all stumbling our way through life. Many of us put up a tough exterior to deal with things but in reality I don't think anyone has a clue as to what's going on. Some are just hiding it better than others. This is why I love my impromptu portrait sessions as walking around for a few hours lets me know more about a person than any Instagram account ever could. Here's a collection of snaps I collected over the last few months that didn't make the New Faces 05 cut:

Style DVSN Collection 13

It's been a while since I put together one of my inspiration collections but only because I've been super duper busy. After a summer of non stop travel, photoshoots and personal projects I'm now fully up to date with all my DVSN work. Here's a small tease on everything style and fashion related:

I collaborated with Jaeger on a small lookbook which I can't wait to share with you guys. We shot 8 outfits around the National Gallery in London which was a challenge for myself and my photographer but in the end I'm super happy with the results.

Carl Cunard and I teamed up to shoot some looks for Farah and Bench which meant I got to take my new lens out for a spin. I also shot some small looks in Vienna and Paris although time constraints meant the quality wasn't up to my usual standards.

The real fashion will always be on the street and during my travels I found this to be very true. From the laid back nature of Paris to the layered looks of Amsterdam, Europe has something to offer.

I decided to create a small project around this European street style which you can see more of by clicking the link below. Walking up to people in a strange country might seem like a random thing to do but the amount of friends and acquaintances I made this way is priceless.

Over the summer I attended LCM and shot some images for the #FacesOfFashion campaign. Mingling at the fashion week after parties is always fun and you're bound to run into some super friendly peeps.

If you're attending LCM or Fashion Week this year hit me up. I'll be scouring the streets on the lookout for the latest styles and might be temped to shoot some looks if you ask me nicely. Here's a tbt Joey London, Oliver Proudlock and myself at LCM.

I've slowly started taking more portraits and pictures of new faces in the industry. Although I really had no idea what I was doing the people I was shooting with were in the same boat so it made the transition that much more fun.

Little details such as lighting and outfits can make a world of difference in the final shot so my advice to any amateur photographers reading this would be not to ignore the small stuff. Click the link below for my latest 'New Faces' post.

Humans of London // Journal 84

Have you guys heard of Humans of New York? It's a blog / photography project started by Brandon Stanton a few years ago that tells stories of everyday New Yorkers by simply letting them talk about themselves. It has captured the imagination of millions and has gone on to become New York Times N1 bestseller. As much as I love my mini street style projects, capturing this unique moment in time has become a small obsession recently. The real story always lives on the street, not in a studio, so after my initial ode to London's architecture I decided that the wonderful people of the capital also deserved a special mention.

If you ever heard the word 'sonder' it may put my obsession with stories in a better perspective. The realisation that everyone around us is living a vivid and complex life, while dealing with everyday struggles puts a beautiful spin on things. As you walk around a city it's interesting to imagine that every window and door holds its own share of human secrecy. Only a few places can provide this incessant variety of life and I'm glad to say London is one of them.

I love using DVSN as a space to share my work and general thoughts about life. I plan to travel a lot more in 2017 and focus on things that make me truly happy. With the recent political reforms in the UK I find it increasingly difficult to see a bright future here and as much as I'm grateful to this country for the opportunities it's given me I feel the time is right to move on. Holland is looking like the most likely destination so if anyone from Amsterdam is reading this I would love to hear from you. Otherwise I hope you enjoy the upcoming posts from Riga, Amsterdam and Malta and make sure to use the social links at the bottom of this post to say hello 🙂

European Street Style // Journal 77

I never really understood what people meant by 'catching the travel bug' but after my first solo trip abroad to Rome last year I've been itching to see more of Europe. Since then I've been all around Italy, Barcelona, Portugal, Vienna, Paris and more to really broaden my world view. Discovering new cultures and people really opens up your eyes to the insignificant differences between us. It's something that has to be experiences rather than read about but I have to do my bit. It's easy to think that the country you grew up in is the best in the world but please understand that your limited world view is holding you back. In terms of fashion there is no 'right' style. A person wears what they're comfortable in and who can tell them otherwise. In this post I collated some of my street style snaps that I took during my travels to showcase the ever changing European fashions:

Paris Street Style

[separator type="thin"]

Parisian styles offered the most variety and French people were very down to earth when I asked to take their picture. Minimal and elegant, Parisians tend to dress for themselves and look comfortable with whatever they're wearing. No wonder most of this post is dedicated to them.

Vienna Street Style

[separator type="thin"]

During my time with Neubau Eyewear I got the chance to explore the lovely city of Vienna. Although I didn't have the right lens with me I managed to snap a few photos. Austrians were much more reserved with their outfits, preferring something that didn't draw too much attention but looked cool and effortless nontheless.

vienna austria street fashion [separator type="thin"]

Amsterdam Street Style

[separator type="thin"]

After my time in London I decided that Amsterdam will be my next destination. The Dutch are the most laid back and friendly people I have had the pleasure of encountering plus they don't take themselves too seriously. A major plus when choosing a city to live in. London and New York are great but I can't help but laugh at the seriousness of it all. I only had a few hours to shoot in Amsterdam during my first time there so the next street style set will be much more curated.

New Faces 05 // Journal 75

The key to taking good portraits is ensuring your subject is relaxed and at ease in front of camera. Anxiousness and self doubt will always show so remember, it's just a picture! Here are some more snaps I took with some friends during the summer. Make sure to DM me on Instagram if you ever want to shoot together ✌️

New Faces 04 // Journal 74

When people ask me what I do for a living I sometimes tend to answer 'I shoot people', just to see the looks on their bemused faces. Although technically true it's a very small part of what I do but it gets me out of the house and keeps those itchy fingers busy. Shooting friends or models is very different to shooting street style as you have a lot more time to prepare and pick the right outfit / location to suit your needs. Here are some I shot in 2016, hope you enjoy:

Beautiful Symmetry // Lookbook 42

In my previous post I talked about how architecture and building materials are used to define an era. The metal used to build the Eiffel Tower for example was looked upon as crude and unnecessary at the time and yet the landmark achieved iconic status and stands proud as a symbol of the capital. I feel that in the 21st century glass is fighting the same battles. Just look at The Shard in London or Burj Al Arab in Dubai, both are amazing feats of engineering and yet during my visits I heard people scoffing at them. During my trip to Paris, Louvre's 27-year-old modernist glass pyramid from I.M. Pei was made to disappear—but not permanently. The optical illusion is part of French street artist and photographer JR's latest public installation. By plastering the pyramid's nearly 700 glass segments with enlarged black-and-white photos of the portion of the Louvre Palace, viewers can see the complete stretch of building when looking at it straight on.

As with my previous lookbook from Paris I opted for a simple approach. A one-of-a-kind shirt from Simon Carters SS17 Collection, custom made trousers from Topman, headphones from Master & Dynamic and of course a light bag from Forbes & Lewis.

Paris Greens // Lookbook 41

It wouldn't be a Style Division post without a little style thrown in so here's a little tease of what I was wearing during my European travels this summer. Over time different outfits have become less important in my life and I didn't give a second thought to sacrificing style for comfort. When you're on your feet all day the last thing you want is an outfit that weighs you down throughout your trip. Since the weather gods were smiling on us I opted for the classic Calvin Klein shirt (you can get a set of 3 right here), my trusty Master & Dynamic headphones, Ray Ban sunnies and a bag from Forbes & Lewis.

Not the craziest outfit I ever wore (anyone remember my hamster days?!) but it was perfect for a sunny but breezy day in Paris. Elegant and understated with a few accessories to match. You don't want to put all your bits on in one go either, otherwise you'll look like a walking accessory stand. When in doubt remember that less is always more.

Zara Greens // Lookbook 40

There's a certain kind of rush one gets during a shopping trip. Women tend to plan their shopping days a lot more than men but you cannot deny the excitement you feel when you see that perfect item. With the rise of online shopping retailers have to do a lot more to entice us and brands such as Zara and Burberry have taken it upon themselves to revamp the frankly stale shopping experience. I'm a sucker for a trench coat so during my recent trip to Vienna with Neubau Eyewear I thought it'd be a shame not to make use of our surroundings to shoot a small lookbook.

Since I was a kid green has been my favourite colour so for a little inspiration Jonathan Zegbe (aka Jon The Gold) and I visited the local butterfly house. If you ever want to feel like you're in the Amazon rainforest just spend 10 minutes in this place. A true test of endurance.

After a guided tour through the streets of Vienna we were invited to a party hosted by Neubau Eyewear that overlooked the famous Museumsquartier. For the uninitiated Neubau Eyewear are an Austrian eyewear brand that produce high quality spectacles inspired by young, creative and contemporary Vienna.
