Days at work

I shot the amazing Linda Lampenius for my project My Way a couple of days ago. The weather was kind of chilly but everything went great! I had an idea of shooting Linda in some kind of nightmare where she’s standing in the middle of the street with broken violins all around her.
I found two already broken violins that was about to be thrown away that we could use. First I shot Linda with the two violins and then Linda went inside to get warm, while I shot the two violins in different positions. I’ll put them together for the final image!

Well, not completely but I’m taking over their Instagram account for the coming week!

In the latest issue of Kamera&Bild there is an article on my portrait project i’m doing, eight pages! They joined me when i shot Lars-Åke “Babsan” Wilhelmsson & the blogger Clara Henry just after christmas. Great that they used my image of Babsan for the cover! I’m planning more shoots that is coming up. The project will me showed at the Hotel Diplomat in Stockholm this september.

I really like making images and coming up with ideas! And to do that i need a camera! Since 2006 i’ve been using a Hasselblad H2 with a Phase One digital back, first a P30 and then a P65+. Phase One also has an amazing software that i use called Capture One that i use when i shoot.

A while ago Phase One released a ny camera for their back, Phase One XF!

So as of last week i 100% dane when it comes to camera, back, lenses & software!

Today it’s exactly ten years since i made my first assignment with my first PhaseOne digital back. Since then i’ve had a couple of backs. Times goes fast! But soon i’ll trade in everything and get a … More on this later!

A pretty cold day! That was what we had when i shot portrait of Caroline Af Ugglas. The idea i had was to have her all tangled up in leather leashes and have her hold two sheeps :)Since i have the worlds best agent, Patricia at Agent Franke, we had two beautiful sheeps at the location when we got there! The place we shot at had a really cool road with old oaks along both sides!
But one thing i thought about was if the model is all tangled up and holds two sheeps, and the sheeps start running the model will fall. Well the sheeps saw another sheep and got all crazy and started pulling until Caroline fell over 🙂 No harm done though!

The shoot went very well and Caroline was fantastic! Patricia took some behind-the-scenes images inbetween chasing sheeps!
A gigantic thanks to Clas who supplied us with the sheeps!

I’ll be talking at SFFs (Swedish Association of Professional Photographers) Norrlandsdagarna 2016. It’s in Skellefteå between the 12th & the 14th of february.

Norrlandsdagarna 2016

About a week ago it was time to shoot another image for my project. This time it was the amazing Andreas Lundstedt that was in front of the camera, in full disco outfit, in a parking garage! We also had an old grey VW Golf as a prop!
After some setting up and filtering of the flashes as the were to be mixed up with the ambient light it was time to start shooting! As always when shooting artists it was really easy getting the shot i wanted! I’ve started working on the image in Photoshop but it will take some time before it is finished but it’s looking great already! 🙂

Thanks to Patricia at Agent Franke for pics and support!

ISPO 2015 München, what a gigantic place!! I have been walking around here for two days now and it never ends! Yesterday it was time for the price cermony for the ISPO Award 2015 where me and my client Prosharp won gold! Many really good awards where given out, Audi’s agency got a price for the best video commercial. It felt really good to go up on stage for best photo after that! 😀

I’ve had a great time here in München together with the Prosharp team, now i’m leaving for Sweden again!
