You may recall I was
working at Salem's Ethiopia this past Spring doing the photography and design for their look book. I
wrapped up that project in May. I loved the work so much I was a little sad to see it come to an end. Well it just so happens that my time with Salem's is not finished. I stopped in yesterday and was overjoyed to see the look book printed. Holding it in my hands was surreal. I am so pleased with how lovely the photos look. I snapped a few photos of the book. I wish you could see it in person. It's just gorgeous.
Even better yet, I have a new opportunity for experience. I've volunteered to be Salem's social media director. I guess that's a good title for it. I get to take all sorts of photographs (Yay!), manage their facebook page, create a blog and help plan and execute a PR event next month at the shop. I'm really excited about this opportunity to learn from Salem, be creative and hopefully add a bit of young expat ideas to their business model. Salem's is such a gem in Addis Ababa and Salem herself is an amazingly and kind individual. I can't wait to bring a bit more public attention to their business in the next 10 months.
