How It All Started

When I was a child I dreamt of conquering the world. I had it all planned and it was so clear in my mind how I was going to become successful and do everything I wanted by the age of twenty. Uau! What a ride it has been since that thought to now! Life showed me so many turns and experiences that I could not even have imagined it could possibly happen. Now, photographing landscapes, animals and having it all featured in fashion feels like the pieces of a very difficult puzzle have finally been found.
Many people ask me How did you become a photographer? And why fashion? After I have danced my way through life, learnt languages, written books and travelled the world this is what happened. After I wrote my first novel, One Way Trip by Cris A Santos available on Amazon I needed to photograph landscape images to produce a book trailer for my novel. HERE 



So, when I watched the book trailer of my novel produced with my images, I knew that was the career change that I wanted. Thinking back, this was actually one of my first passions in life - Photography and Fashion as I was modelling from a very young age. So I enrolled myself in a Photography and Design course. Initially, I started selling images and canvas online, I was lost because I had to compete with thousands of photographers. Until one day, I received an email from Vida inviting me to become a Vida Designer.


This is scarf is from my Vida collection. See full collection here.

Vida also has an educational program, so when a person purchases an item from Vida, this person is not only going to wear and live art. This person is also giving hope to a family in Pakistan where the beautiful work of art is being produced, as they help the people working for them and their families providing them with an opportunity to learn. From there, I became a collaborating artist with Vida and two other companies Redbubble and Zazzle, and PhotosbyCris Designs was born please click PhotosbyCrisDesigns to see Full Redbubble and Zazzle Collections

Broadwater Parkland

Welcome to Broadwater Parklands,  My day out here was full of warm sun and beautiful blue skies decorated with soft whipped cream clouds. Broadwater Parkland is located in Southport - Gold Coast Australia. This area offers a huge open park where major events are held and also exercise areas, playground, picnic and barbeque facilities. All provided along the water and amazing views.  To spend a day out in a very mild winter day on the Gold Coast I chose a beautiful and comfortable suit all white. Monochrome fashion is still going strong and I love all white suits to give an air of class and sophistication without being over dressed. This is definitely a day to office to evening outfit. Ready for any occasion really.                                 White Suite Similar  HERE   / ZAFUL SUNGLASSES / POPPY APPAREL BAG GET 10% OFF IN ANY POPPY APPAREL ITEM USE CODE POPPYPHOTOSBYCRIS HAVE A BEAUTIFUL WEEKEND AND WEEK AHEAD  XOXO CRIS INSTAGRAM

The Beach Look from Heaven

Image
Hello lovelies,  It is Spring in Australia.  It can be tricky to know what to wear, however I found the perfect dress in one of my favourite online stores ROSEGAL   The weather can change from cool to warm in a very short period of time. However, it was not going to stop me from going to the beach. We had a few weeks of rain and as soon as the weather improved a little I visited Kingscliff Beach in New South Wales. Although it is a different state, it is only about 45 min from the Gold Coast in Queensland (where I live). As soon as I got there, I felt the light wind and could not resist to open my arms and let the sensation of pure freedom get through me. The dress was perfect to make me feel just like that - free like the wind and wild like the waves. The light material of chiffon with the lace flare sleeves are so beautiful and delicate. The design is feminine and elegant, the flowy sleeves make them a statement in their own right. The colour is so beautiful, it matched so we
