Zahn Pithers for Jenny Craig

























Zahn recently shot Dame Edna for Jenny Craig UK, Australia and New Zealand. These lamingtons represent her weight loss, 8kgs in 8 weeks, not bad for a 78 year old!

A new one from Damien Pleming's Funny Series




















"This series was born of a need for me to express who I am through my photography. Humor and laughter are characteristics I inherited from my father and older siblings. I love to see the funny side of life and believe there is great therapy in a good laugh.
The ideas behind these photos had been floating around in my head for many years. They ended up making so much noise, I had to get them out! With the help of some fantastic subjects and crew members, I've been able to bring these conceptual dreams to life."
- Damien Pleming
