CURATED LUXURY LIFESTYLE FASHION ART and WELLNESS magazine NYC curating good vibes by BRIGITTE SEGURA

backstage with WALDO PRETORIUS

The backstage scene of a fashion show is an entirely separate world of high energy and chaotic movements. Behind the lens with WALDO PRETORIUS gives us a glimpse of  goes on behind the catwalk scene.  Dubbed as “The Backstage Photographer” of South Africa, here’s a glimpse of what we like to call his ‘thing’ … a spontaneous art form- and we love it.

His shots dreamily capture the moments before a model struts down the runway. From dressings to hair and make-up, we get to see how a show truly comes to life. Waldo’s been going backstage at shows for the past three years, and on many occasions had sole backstage access, allowing him to single-handedly show this magnificent world through his lens. The shots are emotional, authentic and raw,  just like the atmosphere.
