Now you can read the whole article that the magazine Kamera&Bild wrote about my project! It’s in swedish. There are also two new behind-the-scenes videos that was made during the shoots!
Two days ago I had my opening of the exhibition My Way at Hotel Diplomat in Stockholm! It was an amazing day and evening! More than 200 guests came! A big thank you to everybody who has made this project possible! And a very special thanks to all the people who has let me photograph them so I can make my images!
Another big thank you to Patricia/Agent Franke & Matias/SPART Gallery!
Today i picked up the brochure that’s been done for my exhibition My Way. It has all the images in the exhibition, some behind the scenes pictures and a short text about each image.
Slowly my prints are coming together! All the photographs will be 100 x 140 cm big! UV-laminated on Dibond board. A big thank you to Ase at ProCenter/Scandinavian Photo for helping me make beautiful prints!
My different assignments can look very different! Just before the summer I got a question if I could shoot some images of the Swedish forrest to be used in a big hotel. So during some late afternoons I went out and shot some trees. Here are two of the images.
I recently went over to Los angeles to shoot an image of Maria Montazami. After failing trying to get our calenders to work when i went there in june, i decided to go over once again in august to get the picture I wanted! Maria is a really even nicer (if that’s possible) than on TV. I understand why she’s been in every season of the Swedish Hollywood wifes on TV!
We started as soon as we found a suiting dress for Maria to wear in the picture. Her dog Copper, who was to be in the picture, wasn’t really feeling it when we were to shoot. So Marias assistant Anna had do jump in as a stand-in dog 🙂 After a couple of hours of shooting in the burning sun we tried som shots with Copper. After a while I felt we had enough images of him to “build” the image i wanted!
It was a super nice shoot with Anna & Maria who were really sweet and helpfull!
I’ve done some new portraits for my series during this summer, this is when I shot Meat King nr 1 in Sweden, Johan Jureskog! I had a old school food truck in the back as a Icecream truck and Johan in front of it holding two big cones filled with ground beef! My friend Per acted as the ice cream man in the truck!
Johan was amazing, just acting without any problems! This image is gonna rock!
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!
In the end july i did a shoot with jazz trumpet mastermind Nils Janson. It’s for the cover of his third album. We did the whole shoot in my studio and i did some portraits with the 35mm on my PhaseOne XF camera, it turned out really cool! I did a whole series of images with Nils all wrapped up in ropes too, but I’ll post those later! Looking forward to seeing the finished album!
