Meet Allister Charles Christie: a videographer and photographer from South Africa’s Sunshine City, Durban. Allister says he has a certain Portuguese school friend to thank for stealing him spool and sneaking him into the darkroom during break. Allister studied videography from 2006–2008, hoping to get involved in advertising, but finding it difficult to pursue anything creative during the recession. After sitting at home without a job for six months, Allister broke his piggy bank and decided to start taking pictures again, enrolling his friends as models and relocating all his household lamps. At this time, the world of digital SLR cameras was alien to him. Surprising to Allister, people seemed to like his visual creations and offered to pay him, which at the time he certainly did not have a problem with! Most of what Allister is involved in is still a hobby, and he especially enjoys conceptualising ideas for a shoot and matching them with foreign locations and garments. Allister opens up about his life plan and the role photography plays in it: “I guess my dream is to be a fashion photographer shooting editorials for magazines and use my camera to travel the earth… but until then I am going to continue working freelance in videography and photography.”
