Always Learn From The Best

On scale 1 to 10 - how much did you missed me? Don't tell me you almost give up on me? Shame on you! ;) Well yeah, I admit that this time I might been taking a break too long - but - there has been some life changing situations for me in between here and there, I needed to take time for some mind-blowing good times with my friends in Ljubljana, did an editorial for Joy and Modna (both will be out in October issue) and not to mention all that dedicated creative-thinking on a subject "how will I survive in London? Where are you, my potential future clients? Sponsors? Anyone?" Well, I figure it out by now: what I'll do is I'll just work harder. There are no shortcuts to the place worth coming.

So, what else is new? Yesterday I was attending my first day at Central Saint Martins and that, my dear photography lovers, is about to be reflected a lot on this blog in the future. My new tutors, course director Andrew Watson and Kathryn Faulkner made our first day super vibrant and most promising! Also, well worth mentioning is that my fellow students and me is gonna be learning a lot from each other. People in the class are from all around the globe and from all sorts of different background: some of them had fine art education history, one of them is using their body as a camera (!!), some they are painters mixing photography, some had a degree from psycho analysis, indeed some fantastic photographers I've already catch a glimpse of their work but of course - most of them I still haven't be able to talk to during the full first day.

What I suspect is, that I am most likely the only Pg student of photography in the class who has been involved in professional fashion photography. Thanks to Aleš Bravničar I had the best school of fashion photography one can have in Slovenia. And now being a part of a student community of one the most famous art school in the world - with alumni fashion designers like John Galliano, Alexander McQueen, Gereth Pugh, Stella McCartney, Paul Smith etc. this means I could be smoking in front of that old respected building with a new Vivienne Westwood ... and who knows: I may learn a thing or two again :)
