Citi Bank Zambia's Glitzy Opening

  Last week I attended the official opening of the Citi Bank Zambia offices at the Elunda round-about in Lusaka. One of our clients, a decor company called Glitter & Sparkle set up the decor for the cocktail and I went through to get some pictures. It was a lovely event with free food, drinks and new friends. This is the part of my job I love! Hope you like the pictures; I think I’m getting better with my photography which is great as I want to incorporate it as part of my professional skills in future!

This post is really because the lovely Tsepo (who I featured in a blog here) said she was looking forward to an update. It warms my heart to know   people look forward to seeing something new on the blog.

I have a battle of deciding how much of my personal life to share on here so I keep it breezy so to say, but the truth is I am a real person and life is not always a bunch of roses. I am going through such a big change in my life at the moment and to be honest it is so hard not to be able to open up about it but I’ve come to learn sometimes it’s better to first work it out with God and yourself and only talk about it when you are in a better frame of mind.

Thank you for reading!

A Peek Into My Photography Work

My weekend started off on a rainy and depressing note. I had plans to go dancing on Saturday but my housemate had such a bad day so we decided to stay in and I was bored to bits because I just wanted to do something exciting for a change.

Anyway, I got to spend the next day with my best bud and I escorted her shopping, mighty proud of myself because I did not buy one single thing even though we found several shops were having sales. I love new things but I hate being broke and I have to save up a little now because my rent is due next month so it's gonna be a little tight. I guess I just have to be creative so I don't get bored with my wardrobe and so I don't bore you either..lol. Here is a look I put together last week with my new favourite sequin jacket:


I believe that one of the most classic looks you can pull off without breaking a sweat is a white tee-shirt/vest and jeans. Throw on a good pair of heels and a funky jacket and you can never go wrong.  

In other news, I'm in the office all day today and it’s so saaaad, I’m not an office kinda girl, I get easily bored and need some freedom, a kind of free spirit if you like. That's why I love that photography is a big part of what I do. Unfortunately I do not own a tripod hence my not so professional self images. I can't divide myself in two and take my own shots but trust me, I wish I could!

Today I want to show you some of my own photography. One of my favourite subjects is food ( I usually get to eat it when I take the pictures which is a plus) I just love how colourful food is and the different ways that people present it to make a simple combination look exciting. My dad always told me colourful food usually tastes good and I believe him! A lot of our clients where I work are restaurants so I have many opportunities to photograph food. I hope you like it!
