Women Engineers' Paintball Battle


There are few creatures as dangerous as a sleep deprived woman with a paintball gun, 200 bullets and a score to settle. Well, maybe 57 cranky women in one forest might be worse.

The girls were nervous at first, but soon battled it out in Tokai like pro's.

There were reports afterwards of intimidation, cheating, breaking the 8m distance rule and tears. But they will remain rumours as the girls were again reunited in female solidarity at the end of the war.

Fashion Photography

The Sexy side of Engineering.

A photoshoot I did for SAwomEng (SA Women Engineers).
None of these girls are models but all of them leapt at the opportunity to swop overalls and goggles for satin and stillettos.

I have two big fat angels hovering over my head. They sent me Lee Miller, (the fabulous woman dressed in black). Watching the sweat break out on my brow, and the sheer panic in my face, Lee volunteered to assist me with styling the girls. She is actually and dancer and has her own studio in Houtbay, Lee's Dance Studio. But she is just a natural! She whipped the woman engineers into funky hip-hop frenzy. Lee can be reached at ragdolldancercat@gmail.com.

SA Women Engineers

I am busy with conference photography for the SA Women Engineers' group. http://www.sawomeng.co.za/
Sixty bright sparks for 5 days @ around 14 hours per day is rather hectic. But they are a great bunch and are starting to fancy themselves as models now - strutting their stuff for the camera in their finest.
