Skin on Skin shot by photographer Waldo Pretorius

This shoot was inspired not only by Waldo and his wonderful world of concepts but in the title itself "Skin on Skin", being the leather & model tied as one, a combination of natural elements used to compliment each other... We thank a tiny little vintage shop in Parkhurst called Second Attitude that popped up in the start of the year for supplying us with their phenomenal leathers. You would be mad not to pop by and check out there leathers/boots/vintage pieces/Miu Miu heels and much much more...

AFDA Stars Shoot - Shot By Hunter Photographer Waldo Pretorius

Inspired by All That Has been Lost - New Age Punk Funk by Hunter Photographer Waldo Pretorius

These retouched images remind me of the Andy Warhol/Viviene Westwood days that we have seem to forgotten, yet underlying some of us as a creative source....

Waldo, ignited by fashion and European style has used his love of geometry and connectivity with the fixation on this...

ShweShwe Poppi Dolls

These little ShweShwe Poppi Dolls were designed by children from Soweto and then put together with all different fabrics and sewing techniques.

I think they are the coolest, most unique dolls I have ever seen. The creativity and expression that was put into the dolls make them completely individual, almost as if they could be alive. 

Hunter photographer Waldo Pretorius gave some of his time a month ago to re create these priceless dolls for charity. These dolls represent not only a cultural expression through design, but the younger generations of people who are giving back and supporting their communities through artistry and inventiveness. Amazing.
