A day in the life of a Bossy Booter.

For everyone who's ever wondered what goes on behind closed doors and how we exactly boss.. look no further! I've documented my day that was the 4th of March... Enjoy!

5:00 am: My alarm rings. Was I tired you ask? Indeed I was but it's nothing that a good cup of coffee can't fix right?

5:05 am: I turn my hair straightener on and bring out the curling enhancer.
Today I'm Flying out to Sydney where I'll meet Dean, what's on the agenda I hear?
Well.. we have a couple of go-sees to get to and then head to an exhibition.

8:00 am: Coffee cup number 2 at Melbourne airport and yes people were looking at me funny for photographing my cup... or for wearing a scarf that is also a hood.

9:30 am: "Welcome to Sydney on flight DJ821 we hope you enjoy your stay"
So here I am on my way to the Sydney office to meet Dean. 


'Working hard or hardly working?' Of course we were working hard what kind of a question is that? 

11:00 am: With the humidity making my mouth quite dry and my stomach rumbling like the the turbulence on the plane, I stepped out bought myself Emma and Toms Orange + Mandarin juice, Blood orange Juice, Banana bread and a healthy dose of fashion magazine.

12:00 pm: On our way to a go-see...

... Dean and I spotted a very familiar campaign.

Whilst waiting for a taxi I played the role of a tourist and took a photo with Dean close by to the Opera house.

On our way back to the office we saw another ad shot by our lovely photographer Jesper Nielsen.

6:00 pm: By this stage of the day we went to visit our photographer Amelia Soegijono in her exhibition that is at the Somedays Gallery in Surry Hills open till the end of this month.


From Left to Right: Yours truly, Steven, Anna, Dean & Amelia.

How could we go to an exhibition and not take a quick snap with our amazing hair and make up artist Nigel Stanislaus.

Nigel brought along his good friends from Granada Productions.

The turn out was amazing... we're all very proud of Amelia.


8:30 pm: After a long yet very rewarding day I was on my way to Sydney Airport for my flight back to Melbourne.

10:45 pm: "Ladies hahaha and Gentlemen we'd like to welcome you hahaha *pause* to Melbourne, for those who live here hahahaha its a warm welcome home and those *pause* on a visit we hope you enjoy your stay"
Thanks a lot, I'm guessing there was a funny joke floating around before the flight attendant made the announcement. 

11:40 am: I kick off my bossy boots and I head for a shower.

12:04 am: Yes I'm a good boy I take 3 Minute showers, I brush my teeth without the tap running and I wear Australian made clothes to show our economy a little love.
Goodnight everyone hope you enjoyed reading this blog.

So Long.. Farewell Gina. (not too long though)

Friday the 27th of February was the day we fare-welled Gina (our much loved accounts lady) and wished her the best of luck as she embarks on a journey into motherhood. The rest of the Bossy's will have to get used to not hearing 80's songs sung during random times of the day, not drinking 99% fat free chocolate frappes and not receiving the weekly Aldi newsletter. Even though she'll be away for a short time she will be dearly missed!

Garry rose to new heights.

As the workers at MISSBOSSYBOOTS were quietly typing away, answering phone calls and drinking icy cold frappes, Garry Moore had managed to pull out his rock climbing gear, tie himself to the support timber and hang up the last image to the new collection of wall-art from our new and current photographers. Of course MISSBOSSYBOOTS would never pass up an invitation to take a few snaps. Enjoy.

Moore for MINI

Garry Moore our beloved photographer has yet again taken himself and his crew out on location to shoot the latest campaign for MINI.
The sun was shining,  the birds were chirping, the crew were full of beans ready to shoot and as always everything ran smoothly. 
Everyone should keep their eyes peeled for an amazing campaign.

Uber-cool Advertising Whiz Kid

Did you know - Dean Drieberg is an 'Uber-cool Advertising Whiz Kid'?
MISSBOSSYBOOTS didn't until we flicked through to page 12 of the 'City Weekly' magazine.
Check it out for yourself - to view a bigger version just click on the image below.
Cheers


Chr!stian does M!MCO.

As the new year began and everyone was slowly easing into the well known fact that work was just around the corner, eager Christian and the Bossy crew were up and running ensuring everything ran smoothly on the recent MIMCO shoot.
Gale force winds, heavy rain and the glaring sun was not enough to stop Mr Blanchard, producing some amazing shots, everyone should keep their eyes peeled for the campaign and 'The Making Of' video to be posted on their website soon.

CHRISTIAN WA S THIRSTY.

On Wednesday 10th of December, Cult denim label Nobody launched their charity t-shirt (each t-shirt sold gives 2 people clean drinking water in Africa for 20 years).
Christian Blanchard shot a series of portraits to promote the charity and attended the launch in Sydney with his celebrity subjects.

From Left to Right: Alex Dimitriades, Gracie Otto, Ruby Rose.

Nigel gets a warning from Christian "Hands off my producer and retoucher".

Christian and Dean praise Prasana for her fabulous work on the event.

The film industry's next big thing (Gracie Otto) points the finger at her favorite photographer.
                    

Regent St Christmas Party.

So as the children of Melbourne were being put to bed, the Bossy team put on their boots and headed down Regent St way for Jesper's annual Christmas Party. Champagne with a side of vegetarian sausages was on the menu for the night, champagne being the more popular option, watching classics like 'The Gremlins' and taking a few stumbling trips to the photo booth, a fun time was had by all. Merry X-mas everyone.

Working On Weekends = No Dramas! ALSO Virginia and the VAC are winners.

Last weekend MBB welcomed back one of our favorite photographers Virginia Cummins.
Virginia shot the upcoming "DRAMA DOWN UNDER" campaign for the Vic Aids Council.
Virginia had shot a campaign previously for the VAC which picked up the award for best campaign at the 2008 ALSO Foundation Awards.


Dean does his best fire impersonation to heat up the model.

Narelle didn't disappoint with her entertaining ways.

The model swore vendetta on Narelle if she got any make up in his eye.

The multi-talented Virginia stepped in to trim the models hair.

Jason from the VAC was wrapped...or was it tied?
