Celebrity photographer David LaChapelle arrives in Australia this month to capture the nation on the Nokia N8 in the surrounds of his magnificent, purpose?built studio.
This is LaChapelle’s first?ever public shoot, first shoot in Australia and his first time shooting on a smartphone.
LaChapelle is famed for his extravagant, unforgettable portraits of Eminem, David Beckham, Uma Thurman, Mohamed Ali,Lady Gaga, Madonna, Leonardo diCaprioa and Kurt Cobain, to name just a few.
If you would like the chance to be snapped by LaChapelle you can check out these dates in Sydney and Melbourne. Get on down to the shoots for your chance to be picked from the crowd…
- 20th October Overseas Passenger Terminal, Sydney 1pm – 6pm
- 23rd October Queensbridge Square, Melbourne 12pm – 5pm
If you are not in Sydney or Melbourne, you can jump onto the Nokia Australia Facebook page and win a chance for you and a friend to be flown to Melbourne and be photographed by LaChapelle.
I must admit I have been drooling over some of the sample shots I have seen from the N8, so can’t wait to see what he does with it.
