Christian Dior Couture’s Post

The Goal Isn't GUCCI Bags. The Goal is a Passport Full of Stamps. ✈️🌍 In a world that often values material possessions and the latest trends, I have a different vision for my life. My dream isn't about accumulating designer bags or luxury items; it's about collecting experiences, memories, and stories from every corner of the globe. It's about having a passport that's overflowing with stamps, each one representing a unique adventure, a new culture, and a different perspective. When I think about the future, I don't envision closets full of high-end fashion. Instead, I see myself walking through bustling markets in Marrakech, hiking through the lush landscapes of New Zealand, savouring street food in Bangkok, and soaking up the history in Rome. I dream of sunsets on the beaches of Bali, the vibrant festivals in Rio, and the serene beauty of the Swiss Alps. Travelling is more than just a hobby for me; it's a passion, a way of life. It’s about stepping out of my comfort zone and immersing myself in the unknown. It's about the thrill of discovering new places, meeting people from different walks of life, and learning about their customs, traditions, and stories. Every stamp in my passport is a testament to the adventures I've had, the challenges I've faced, and the growth I've experienced. Each trip is a new chapter in my life story, filled with moments of awe and wonder, of joy and sometimes even hardship. But it's these moments that shape who I am and broaden my horizons. They teach me resilience, adaptability, and the true value of human connection. So here's to the dream of a passport full of stamps. Here's to the countless journeys ahead, the breathtaking landscapes yet to be seen, and the endless adventures waiting to unfold. Here's to a life rich with experiences, where every stamp tells a tale of discovery, transformation, and boundless curiosity. For me, the ultimate goal is not to have the latest designer handbag, but to have a wealth of experiences that I can cherish for a lifetime. The world is vast and full of wonders, and I want to see it all, one stamp at a time. 🌎✨ #Wanderlust #TravelGoals #LifeOfAdventure #PassportStamps #DreamBig #SeeTheWorld

3 months since the last post and here I am on a faithful evening sharing another of my impactful(hopefully) Projects, I embarked on an incredible journey, diving headfirst into various remarkable projects that have left an indelible mark on my personal and professional growth. From intricate project frameworks to international-level festivals, every step has been a testament to the power of determination, hard work, and the incredible synergy that arises when passionate individuals come together. Vignan Mahotsav: An Experience Beyond Expectations The Vignan Mahotsav, a university fest, exceeded all my expectations and proved to be an extraordinary and profoundly educational experience for both myself and my team. Despite moments of exhaustion and wavering morale, our unwavering teamwork and resilience propelled us through every obstacle, allowing us to emerge triumphant and brimming with a sense of accomplishment. My role as the Choreographer and Model Master on the front end, coupled with overseeing the project's execution on the back end, was a true test of my leadership abilities. With the unwavering support of my team, we executed this project in all its glory, helping to build our models' portfolios with stunning photoshoots. Centered around the famous Netflix series "#Bridgerton," set between 1813 and 1827, our theme delved into the Regency era, a period of profound change and development in fashion, architecture, and style. This posed a significant challenge, as we not only had to engage with a revered schemata but also embrace and nurture new talents, making the experience all the more enriching. Our accomplishments extended beyond merely winning a prize in Haute Couture; we gained invaluable experience as designers and fashion enthusiasts, reigniting our passion for design and modeling. This journey has helped me understand leadership roles better, fostering moments of shared happiness and team-building that will forever be etched in my memory. The past three months have been a whirlwind of growth, discovery, and unwavering determination. Each project, each challenge, and every triumph have served as stepping stones toward a future brimming with endless possibilities. With renewed vigor and a heightened sense of purpose, I eagerly anticipate the next chapter of this exhilarating journey, ready to embrace whatever obstacles and triumphs lie ahead.

Fashion companies perhaps you didn’t know about/consider working for 👇🏻 In fashion, we talk a lot about brands and magazines, but you should know that fashion agencies also represent a big part of the industry. You might be familiar with modeling agencies, but did you know fashion agencies also represent other talents such as stylists, photographers, creative directors, and even hair and makeup artists and manicurists? In addition, there are also PR agencies, trend forecasting agencies, and digital/social media agencies. Fashion agencies are always looking for new talent to represent but they also are another career option you can explore if you want to work in fashion. In my recent article, you will learn what are the different fashion agencies and how they operate: https://lnkd.in/dMD49_Xz #fashionjob #fashionschool #fashioncourse #fashionstudent #fashionstudents #fashioncareer #fashioncourses #onlinefashioncourses #fashionjobs #fashioninternships #fashionagency #fashionpr

Group. Pictures. Matter... 📸 So, as stated yesterday, I LOVE a commercial job! 😊 And when doing said job and you have a bunch of employees who have enjoyed a day of training and upskilling, (and are now in need of some fresh air). What better way to top it off than to actually get everyone together to have a massive group picture done! 📷👥 In this one, for the lovely company Reckitt, we were fortunate enough to be invited along to the prestigious Fairmont Windsor Park to capture this gem of a group. 👔🏰 The secret of these types of images is to do them after the event when people will be soaking up the fresh air like it's going out of fashion! Plus the promise of, "Let's get this group picture done, then you're all free to go for a beer and wine," always helps to speed along the process! 🍻🍷 We already set up the camera on a tall tripod and got the chairs ready to roll. Everyone filters out, sits down, and then BOOM, it's done in record time and looking fine! 👏✨ So if you know anyone in the commercial world in need of kick-ass photographers, (with can do attitudes and are genuinely lovely to work with), to cover any events or training, then please touch base, as I would LOVE to hear from you! 📩🌟 Ps, another reason I enjoy these types of jobs is learning about the business we're shooting, and I had NO idea that Reckitt actually owns dettol antiseptic, Cillit Bang, Airwick, Durex, Calgon, Vanish, Harpic, Nurofen, Gaviscon, Nurofen, all to name but a few!!! 😲🏢 Create. Capture. Engage. #CommercialPhotography #GroupPhotos #CorporateEvents #ProfessionalPhotography #BusinessPhotographer 📸👔🎉

📸 From Fashion Photography to Stakeholder Centricity: A Career Evolution 🎓💼 When I graduated as a Fashion Photographer, I would have never imagined that the skills I acquired behind the lens would become the basis of a stakeholder-centric approach throughout my career: 1️⃣ Effective Communication: During a fashion shoot you are not just writing with light, you are using your voice to give exact directions to eventually see in the frame what you have in mind. Communicating with clarity and intention leads to the best results. 2️⃣ Adaptability: A shoot can be planned to perfection, yet many things can go wrong. When you've booked the location, model, hair & make-up artist, stylist and assistant you still need to deliver results. This has taught me how to be flexible, creative and thrive in challenging circumstances. 3️⃣ Connection: The perfect shot is not just about technical skills when working with models; as a photographer you need to connect with your model, make them feel at ease and build a natural connection. Trust takes time to develop and can be fragile; it's important to consistently demonstrate competence and trustworthy behaviour. 4️⃣ Collaboration: On shoot days you only have a couple of hours to build a team and work towards that common goal: a series of photos that not just the photographer, but everyone involved would add to their portfolio with pride. Successful partnerships are based on mutual respect and common goals. Even if I never pursued a career in fashion photography, the mindset it taught me of creativity, adaptibility and collaboration proves that a creative background can lead to a thriving career in the professional landscape. #StakeholderCentric #CareerJourney #Leadership
