YOU HAVE NO CHOICE

No matter what you've been told, the world is in fact out to get you. Get a grip. Reach out for anything you can hold on to. There will be no comfort. Don't waste anymore time trying to be like or be liked. Instead, get down and dirty with yourself. It's not enough to masturbate with your left hand. Stop being ashamed to yourself anyway. Keep those skeletons in the closet. Whoever thought they made you interesting? Get real.

This is the fist paragraph from a shiny silver book THE SWEDISH DANCE HISTORY where among 1103 pages above picture with the book idea rockstar Marten Spanberg, Ajda and me is published ... This book is pretty god damn cool and not just saying that because I AM IN THE BOOK.
Get real!

Unleash The Sexual Confidence.

I knooooow, but this summer has been pretty WILD - If you know what I'm sayin 8-) After my graduation show at St Martins in London (in June, the last time I posted here) I went home to Slovenia for a project where I was a photography mentor to slovenian most successful ex model agent Stane Hering. After one week of workshop I went to a road trip with one of my dearest girlfriend Anika to Dolomiti mountains in Italy, where we had some unleashing the girls craziness and all sorts of stuff I can't share here ;-) Oh, there was a Thelma & Louise moment, meaning the best one in that movie - ah-ha, you know exactly what I mean...
Okaaj, so after that awesomeness I went directly to Vienna, I was spending 25 days as a official photographer at the world's biggest dance festival ImpulsTanz. And what an amazing experience that was! I was having the time of my life - collaborating with so many wooooohow people - felt really grateful for being a part of it and I wish to be there next year again! Lucky me, I've been a guest - living with two dear friends and one of the most amazing couple Ajda Es and Tomaž Plahuta - must say that after a few days now I already miss them mucho!

So 4 days ago I came back home, and before I managed to unpack my stuff (mess, messy, messier), I went on a little road trip in a little cabriolet with a sexy woman - well, I was hired by her for a photo session. So, my job was to shot a very sassy, smart and successful slovenian in the island of Croatia. (See the shot on this post - and for now, I'll keep it a secret who is she... ;-)

After another week in Slovenia where I will be having the second part of my teaching workshop my next project is in London where I will be returning on 20th of August. Fingers crossed I will be shooting for a lingerie brand from UK.

Hm, looks like my life has brought me back to my "sexuality roots" - because it seems I will be in the near future photographing more and more the women who knows how to unleash the sexual confidence...

...and boy, I like to stick around to capture that.

Stay tuned for more. I shall not disappoint you :-)
