ProprHello - Simane

As you all know a few weeks ago I took some time out and headed out to Ottawa to catch up with friends and family. I also got a chance to shoot this new installment of Propr Hello.

We all have that one friend who has such a corky and free spirited personality at all times. He or she can always bring light to any dark situation that you may come across. And here's mine meet Simane, what I find intriguing about Simane is her love for Asian culture, as well she always finds the time to posting new self portraits of herself everyday on Facebook. Till this day she has not yet once used the same facial expression in any of her images lol.

So we took a lil road trip a bit out of town to reach this mellow scenery of great open field, which ended in a pleasant day of photography.

ALL SHOTS BY YOURS TRULY 

ProprHello - Melissa

The most basic and powerful way to connect to another person is to listen. Just listen. Perhaps the most important thing we ever give each other is our attention.... A loving silence often has far more power to heal and to connect than the most well-intentioned words.

- Rachel Naomi Remen

For my second installment of ProprHello I chose to feature Melissa. Well, actually it was really spontaneous I met up with her after work. And just so happened to have my camera on me. Once I started shooting a few shots we just ran with it and figured " hey why the hell not".Somethings just work out better when you just don't plan them. Here are the shots from the day.

Enjoy.

Proprpostur Style Book s/s 2011

This is the first instalment of Spencer Edwards Style Book series. This instalment embraces  the feel of spring / summer styling for 2011.The video experimented with colours that are muted but yet still very vibrant and lively accompanying the feel of the season. What inspired this shooting was the lifestyle of the everyday gentlemen and lady throughout a day to day basis. To achieve this vision filming was done on the downtown streets of Ottawa and Montreal. All styling and filming was done by Spencer Edwards, with kind participation of friends and models from Angie’s Modeling Agency. This project was able to be brought to life and shared with the world of fashion and style.

Wrap Around

OUTFIT

Hat - Thrifted

Coat - Thrifted

Button up - Polo

Shirt Around Waist - Tommy Hilfiger

Jeans - Cheap Monday

Boots - Dr. Martens

For sure this post is a lot more experimental and free from what I have been offering as of late. Some days you just got to throw on whatever you want spontaneously and see how it turns out. This outfit is most definitely one of those moments. If it isn’t really noticeable yet I am in love with the abstract patterned Tommy button down. It just works so well for me with a lot of things. It’s one of few pieces that I own that can be classy if worn but add character to itself without any major modifications/adjustments.

Dr. Martens really is probably at the epitome of quality and durability when looking for a good pair of boots. I 'm really drawn towards them because it’s not easy to find boots. That can not only maintain their quality during while trekking through heavy snow storms and falls. But as well still be able to wear comfortably as well as adapt to your personal spring/summer wardrobe. Pretty much they can be worn all year round, and not look awkward on your feet if pairing them up with shorts in the summer.

Inspired By: Jake Davis

This man has had as much as inspiration in my life as most kids would say Michael Jackson or Michael Jordan. Jake Davis' work is always amazing, his way of capturing culture, style, grace and individuality in every film that he does is truly breathtaking in many ways. Even his 00:30 - 01:00 test shot series are enough to leave you craving and wanting more I highly suggest everyone take a minute and really look into this man and all his work. I promise you wont regret it.

Happy New Year!!! I hope everyone enjoyed themselves last night but in a safe and healthy manner. Its a new year, so lets kick things off with something a bit different from what I Usually do. Recently I met up with teo friends of mine who are currently working on a project called Polar Tog. I did a little short video, ( my first video I have ever really made lol ) so please show your mercy.

                                                                                         

"It’s really not about just clothing or fashion, it’s more like a movement, a way to standout and to express ourselves in this globe where billions of others’ live." It’s about two minds reuniting their knowledge towards doing something positive, something that’s been done, but with a twist of Canadian culture and pure patriotism to ours roots and our beliefs. 

You could be a single person or even have a posse in this world, but no matter where you’re heading you’ll always be labeled to something. That being said, being labeled to something comes with great responsibilities…

 Meaning everywhere you go, you should be heading towards that direction in a mindset where you acknowledge the fact that you’re playing the role of an ambassador for your labels, and you never want to fail the mission of standing out and playing that role the best way possible. Polar Tog will take Canadian couture to an extend where the whole world will respect its roots, recognized it as one of the top names in the fashion and clothing industries for the next few decades, till perfection takes place obviously…

All we have at moment is a dollar and a dream; it may not sound like much but as I recall most successors in this world we live in all started in a similar state we’re in. [David] “Growing up my mom always encouraged me to draw on everything I could possibly draw on, by everything I mean completely everything I could possibly trace a thought on, including the walls. That thought was completely organic to me, as strange as it may sound coming from a mother, but growing up made me realized how essential that stage of my life was. Now I’m able to express myself in a variety of ways, and I feel like the clothing business is the most 
spontaneous way to do so.” 

This dream will take most of our commitment, but my comrade and I share a mutual thought where we both agree on, which is “if at age 50 we’re not wearing Rolex watches on our wrist, we failed to succeed in life…” The goal is at the end of the day, saying people wearing our label and feeling the comfort in doing so. We’re 90’s babies, and we’re definitely bringing the ‘retrosuperfuture’ steez to the surface on earth! 

Happy new year  & respect your resolutions please!

Sincerely yours,

David N. & Kendji P. – Polar Tog
