The Dapper Man

A KALTBLUT exclusive. Photographer Aart Verrips captured Wesley Benade @Fanjam Concepts for us. Styled by Louw Kotze using fashion by Row-G International. Pastry chef turned photographer/videographer Aart Verrips, had major life dilemma on career change before carving a name in fashion photography and videography. Growing up in Durban, Aart moved all the way to France to develop and pursue a successful career in culinary. Along the way, he met a young girl named Sylvia Ponce who first introduced him to photography. He then moved back to Cape Town, with his first DSLR, working, as a pastry chef for 3 years – only to find out cooking wasn’t his passion after all. Living in one of the most beautiful cities in the world, his introduction to photography started with capturing landscapes and everyday life happenings. Finally, he moved to Johannesburg where he marks his spot as one of the most promising fashion photographers of the city. He is a KALTBLUT favourite!
