After shooting a campaign for Skagen I’ve really felt drawn back to my photographic and art direction roots and my goal for this year is to shoot as many cool stories as I can and seeing as I’m a big fan of local labels I’m aiming for the majority of them to all be local products. So out of this wanting to do more creative stuff my friend Adi (who is a stylist) and I have formed a collective called Churche and under this label we hope to create and share loads more projects with you really soon.
Starting with this one…A little while back I came across this label called Ilundi Designs based in Cape Town who make the most beautiful hand cut, hand stitched and hand woven clutches. These bags are truly a labour of love and can take up to 14 hours to make by hand because every hole is hand punched and every stitch hand sewed, so you know that your bag is in a way one of a kind.
After I went through their online gallery I decided to drop them a mail and ask if we could create a look book for them. They were only too happy to take us on board even though our concept involved lots of water and so without further adieu here mine and Adi’s second shoot together for Ilundi bags with the amazing Leigh Peinke as our model and dresses from the talented Samantha Constable.
If you think you have something interesting we can shoot or if any models out there are interested in getting involved in some shoots, drop me a mail – angie@luckypony.co.za

Beautiful! These photographs are colourful and very atistic! Well done! And of course the clutch bags will fit perfectly into my wardrobe!
Stunning concept and photographs…. I especially love the way the water looks….. like silky gel. A really innovative way to showcase these beautiful bags.

Absolutely incredible clutches and I’d be the happiest lady to win one and share with Miss Emily Eales.
I’d also love to do makeup for any shoots you guys have coming up, all very beautiful and inspiring!! <3
It’d be such a treat to win one of these bags Miss Lucky Pony! Even better to win 2- so I could give one to my friend Beki who would probably be babin’ walkin around with one of these when she moves to England. #goodbyegift #ilundi

Best! Sisters need matching ones right?
Just love their designs. And the sandals are sublime. With the photographs. Beautiful and ‘wantable’ and ‘musthaveable’.
Had my eye on these gorgeous finds for a while now. Pick me!!
My mother and I truely enjoy hand crafting pretty things which is why looking at these ilundi bags I can appreciate how beautifully hand woven they are. Beautiful details. Also sharing this with my mom would be the best. Especially for everything she does for me ♡
