Days at work

My little project with portraits continues … This time i went down to Bålsta to shoot Lasse Åberg, famous artist & actor. As a bonus I had my entire family with my as assistants! 🙂
We met up with Lasse at the Åbergs Museum. Unfortunately the rain was hanging in the sky and both the light and the sky was completely flat! I found a place where i started setting up and took some test shots. Everything looked like crap!! The stress and the sweat began coming, will everything just become crap now?
After some kind of panic I found another location that was less crap. We moved everything there and set up again. Took a shot and it was not as bad as before, but not great!
After a while Lasse came over and just as he entered our little set-up the sun came and i got a perfect blue sky with white clouds!

The theme for the shoot was pretty simple, Lasse was hanging up banana skins to dry 🙂 I took three different images of Lasse. I think two of them will make it into my project!

I shot the band Black Jack recently. They wanted something a little bit more different than they had in earlier shoots. So we built an old looking studiolooking place in a big garage. It took some time with everything from saxophone to old chairs that needed to be moved around. After i set up the light i saw that i had some flare coming from one of the flashes in the background, but nothing that couldn’t be flagged off with an old cymbal!

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