the photographer says
This was the third time this year I have photographed Fernanda, so it’s safe to say she has been one of my favourites. She is effortlessly cool and it really comes through in her photographs. It was fun to shoot this one with her, I feel like every time I get the opportunity to shoot with her she comes more and more out of her shell. When you first meet her she is quite reserved, but much like her hair her colourful personality comes out.
