dancing to the beat of my own drum




































I'm wearing a Zara dress, and Zara oxfords, H&M blazer, hat, garters and knee highs.

The photo's are taken with a 50mm f/1.4 lens by Laura, my lovely dovely coworker

man I love spontaneous shoots like this
where things just evolve, and although I have yet still a lot to learn about this camera and the different lenses I love how it was able to capture an energy and charisma and a reality at point..
