Photoshoot of June…

The birthday photo session

Just in time for Georgia’s 30th birthday we managed to organise a small photo shoot back home. We used a one-light setup with a couple of reflectors. A large part of the photos were shot without flash, but with big white foamcore boards used as reflectors.

Enjoy…!

And here again as Flickr gallery with slide show effect!

Aurora Borealis!

Just been stumbling upon the following video while researching for an upcoming article on my marketing blog. Absolutely fantastic display of an Aurora Borealis with music of The Gladiator, a must see!

The Aurora from Terje Sorgjerd on Vimeo.

As seen on Take me to your leader.com.

Landscape photographer Terje Sorgjerd spent four years looking to create a timelapse of the aurora borealis — also known as the northern lights –, then finally flew to north Norway and spent a week capturing one of the biggest displays in recent years. The final result is absolutely amazing!

Shot in and around Kirkenes and Pas National Park bordering Russia, at 70 degree north and 30 degrees east. Terje says that the temperatures were around -25 Celsius during the week of shooting.

The stills were shot with a Canon 5D Mark II along with the Canon 24mm 1.4, Canon 16-35mm 2.8, and Sigma 12-24mm lenses.

Klaus Kampert, a German photographer residing in Düsseldorf has published a range of his very beautiful nude and dance photos on the Behance network. His work is truly inspiring and is oriented towards the American “straight photography” of Weston, Adams and Strand. His interest is for people photography with focus on beauty, nude, portrait and dance. He’s been working with some leading advertising agencies together, but is most known for his nude and dance motives which are collected in fine-art circles.

In any case Klaus has an amazing eye for esthetics and light. Have a look at his gallery here.

Sean Armenta has published a couple of really nice tutorial videos onVimeo – Sean Armenta as part of an Fstoppers contest last year. I was meant to mention them earlier, but never got around to write a note about them until now.

First video is about the actual lighting setup, the second about the retouching of the photo itself. I like Sean’s work and it’s great to check his blog and videos from time to time, And while you’re at it also check out his Flickr page where you can also see the photo taken at this shoot..
