Stockholm

A small trip to Stockholm.

Jens encouraged me to take some photo’s because it has been a while since I  grabbed a camera.

Not to mention my canon 5d mrkII which I never use.

Oh well…

I think it’s an okay series to warm up for more work…

What more can i want than a beautiful stranger and a video projection of Metropolis ❤ ❤

I REALLY HATE PHOTOSHOPPING

m.c.v.

I was helping Marie Charlot with some photos and took like usual some for myself.

We used a Cambo Classic with  old stock polaroids.

It was a lot of guessing  because I didn’t know the iso of the film…

I haven’t installed my scanner yet so Marie Charlot scanned it ( a little bit crappy maybe) and i did some colour corrections on them.

anyway, here are results:

Photos are taken in  reversed order.

Jens posted a cool song which is fitting for this post:

Enya Vandenhende Collection

Jens and I did this shoot for a student of the Antwerp Fashion Academy.

I don’t like shooting photos for these people because they always finish everything last minute and they need their photos right away.

Planning with these kind of people is a hopeless task so i usually refuse these assignments but this time the theme was something in line in what i’m planning to do for a next ‘project’.

Also teaming up with Jens made it possible to do these kind of quick shoots.

Jens used his Canon 5D and some flashlights but because i’m a total loser with these kind of things i used my mamiya rb and natural light.

anyway, here are my shots.

For Louise

I owed Louise €10 and she asked if i could drop the money in her mailbox.

But I was afraid it would get lost with the rest of her mail so i quickly made a drawing and a print on this envelope.

I also added some extras.

It’s has been a while since I last made a drawing or something like this.

So I think I’m going to do more things like this.

The print and the dia slide are photos I’ve taken for my Linkeroever series. I’m kind of stuck with it.

But I’m going to try a few new things out.

I recently discoverd I really love Imogen Heap especially when she sings live and using some loops/ vocoder.

Invisible Roads

Me and Ima talked a lot about how stuck we are in our new work.

we seem to lack a kind of depth in our photos.

the more we shoot the more we get anoyed and dissapointed in what we do.

previous week ima asked me if i wanted to pose for some pictures. we stopped after 4 shots because we were out of ideas.

then i asked if i could take some photos of her with the same clothes… and i really don’t know what to think of it.

either way… here they are.

I also tried some shots with my polaroid ee100 special… but the problem is you have to guess the distance and the light.

there are some buttons but you don’t have that much of control.

the first one is a little bit dark and somehow i like it even though i hear from other people it’s too dark .
