When I got the call from a client in France that in a few days we will start our architecture shoot I already had a plan to focus on making newer pieces to add to my potfolio after the job is done.

Read MoreShooting in Sri Lanka - and a marketing bonus!
Last year my hard work finally brought a result that made my heart almost stop, shooting in Sri Lanka in the middle of December? Why not! I've always hated the winter and snow so this was a great way to escape that and warm up my bones.
