My blog, although I don’t see myself as a blogger but as a Photographer I will try to blog some interesting material during the weeks.
Expect at least 2 updates a week.

Claudia vs the Leica R 135mm

/in , /by

By now you must have read about my new project 😀

I just started my new project #VintageLensOnNew
A project where I challenge myself (and you guys) to shoot mainly with old vintage lenses. Not because my Sony or Sigma lenses aren’t good, but to actually play with different looks, and also to “proof” that lenses that are sold for anything between 5-100 euro’s on fleamarkets can be incredibly good and cool. Although I have to add some of the Leica R lenses I use are a bit more expensive.

At the moment I still use these lenses manual, which with the Sony’s is actually a breeze. It’s slower than AF of course but manual focus is helped by peaking, zoom options and of course the EVF itself, and this…. well makes it a lot easier.

Today some images I shot during the Ultimate weekend day 2 with Claudia.
These shots were taken with the Sony A7RIII and the Leica R 135mm

According to a lot of people this is not one of the best Leica R lenses… but in honesty the lens performs stellar on the Sony A7RIII, the images are PIN sharp and I just love the way the colors look….. love it. But judge for yourself… what do you think?

Unesco Heritage Schokland with Claudia and vintage lenses

/in , /by

Today some images with Claudia (and Tim) shot during the Ultimate weekend day 2.
The location is Unesco Heritage the old harbour of Schokland which is very close to our studio and an amazing place to shoot.
And what can I say, I just love the look these vintage lenses give me.

Fleamarkets with the Huawei P20 pro

/in /by

Today was a free day in the Netherlands so it was time to visit some fleamarkets to hunt for some gems. We’re not always lucky….. but at least I got to take some snaps with the Huawei P20Pro. Images are shot on RAW (40MP) and edited in Lightroom CC Classic.

Hope you guys also like to see some other images next to the modelphotography.
Do remember that these posts are more to give you an impression of what we did and how it looks over here (or where we visit), they’re just snaps so to say.
