Bovey Castle

On day 2 of the UK tour we had the privilege to shoot in the stunning Bovey Castle.
There was one problem…. it was raining like crazy (I believe cats and dogs is an understatement) so after just one quick outside shot we had to move inside and created something special including a very nice mirror, now the real challenge was to hide a group of 20 people in a room that is seen with a camera through a bent mirror 😀

 

After the rain we did try one more outside shot which turned out pretty well luckily.

Workshop Dusseldorf Germany

On June 28th I will be teaching a full day workshop in Dusseldorf Germany.
We have an amazing model and a really cool location.
This is the kind of workshop you really don’t want to miss, at the moment we have 4 tickets left so if you want to learn a lot more about model photography and want to ask all the questions you always were afraid to ask or did not get the answers to….. well this is your chance 😀

Capturing Huge Spaces

 

You probably recognize the feeling. Standing in the middle of an enormous hall, beautifully decorated, a space which is a piece of art of itself. You grab your camera and start pointing. And then? How on earth can one capture that impressive space in one image? I love that challenge! During the last few years, I’ve been travelling to places where these immense spaces can be found. Objects that are covered are e.g. famous museums and train stations. Common characteristic of the images in this post is that they are all shot with an ultra wide lens, and that more than one image was needed to fully accomplish the challenge. I am using the Canon 17 mm TSE, a wonderful tilt-shift lens. As the huge spaces covered are mostly public spaces, it takes some preparation to start shooting. I cannot do without my tripod, and you know, the tripod police is everywhere in those places (:-). The solution of course is to ask permission in advance, and that has until now never been a problem (on the contrary, it seems to be really appreciated if you kindly explain what your intentions are.)

 

Enough said, let me show the images.
