Days at work

Sometimes you do things just for fun! The other week a friend of mine had let a group of Streetcar enthusiasts borrow his parking lot outside his big store so they could have a big meet! I really liked his initiative and thought maybe i could support them by going there and shoot their cars for free!
So me and Jonas went there and started setting up. The sun shined but the wind was really hard! We had to use sandbags and ropes to keep our light stands down.
The first car to roll in was a bike, a really cool trike! After that the cue started to form!
When the shoot ended we had shot about thirty cars, hopefully everybody was happy!
Big thanks to Jonas for the behind the scenes pictures

This summer it’s time for something called “SM-Veckan” (Swedish Championships Week) in Sundsvall. To get some attention towards the event some famous athletes where asked to help. And i was asked to shoot some pictures for them. We had Charlotte Kalla, Johannes Skagius & Fredrik Svensson in the studio one day to shoot three different pictures for the different campaigns.
It was a blast! Nicer models than these must be hard to find! 🙂 I’ll post some images as soon as they are ready!

This march i did i job with Sweetpop and the 3D-guys at FA Works. The mission was to visually show the enviormental benefits that comes with the changes that was made to some buildings in my city. I first shot the buildings then FA Works made a knitting in 3D that they sent to me, i then put it all together in Photoshop.

A while ago it was time to shot Birsta City’s fashion campaign for spring/summer 2015. The theme for this year was color and we used colored smoke in all the images. We used up over 100 smoke bombs for the images and commercial. I went out to the location somewhere around 07.00 where they already had set up for the filming. Cold, windy but with a lot of sun sums up the day. The bigg Arri-screen bent both steel stands that it was mounted on!

Somewhere around 19.00 i packed up my things and went home. I’ve just finished editing all the images and sent them to the agency! It looked really good!

A big thanks to all participants and a special thanks to the stylist Victoria (www.viktoriam.se) who gave me most of the behind-scenes pictures!

Shot a new cover for a new tourist magazine last week. This time they wanted a parachuter coming down over a already shot aerial picture. So we had to build a thing where the model could hang and then place two big fans underneath her! Now all i have to do is put the two images together!

Well, now it’s time again for yet another Prosharp image! We had scoted for a place that would work as a entrance in a 50/60s home. Props had been gathered from different places. One problem was the shooting distance! I ended up half way out the window to get the right shot 🙂 The walls was not as i wanted the, too bright!! So i made my own wallpaper in Photoshop that i’ll put upp in post. Also got a nice knitted piece made in 3D that will go up on the wall!

As the product in the image not yet is available it’s blurred out in the image here …

The swedish national cross country skiing team (long name!) is sponsored by Volkswagen. Charlotte Kalla of course drives one too, so when she got her new car the other day, VW wanted som new pictures of Charlotte. Lucky me we had both sun and newly fallen snow, and cold weather!

Just before christmas i shot a magazine cover with artist Eric Saade. Me and my agent, Patricia, went and started setting up a mobile studio at Spårvagnshallarna in Stockholm. OP Communications, who makes the magazine, recides in the same building. Later Eric Saade and his crew came and we could start shooting. As no big surprice the shoot went really well, Eric is used to pose in front of a camera! Even though they had many different outfits he really looked the coolest in the things he came in, so we went with that!

The lighting was made with two Profoto softboxes (large strips) from the back, one Profoto 3×4 softbox from the left side and Profoto ringflash.

Well, the harder the music the nicer members in the band! 😀 Shot the super hard deathmetalband Soreption just after christmas and like all the other times i’ve shot them we had a blast! They needed new pictures for future use. We did two different setups, one in black & white and one in colour.

Ninetone Records recently signed popact Abase, who signs covers of 90’s top band Ace of Base. For the release they needed new images. So during a very long day in the studio we shot singel and group images, each with four different outfits, so we got quite a few pictures this day 🙂
