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.

SCE soccer match, and some animation fun

/8 Comments/in /by

The Netherlands is a real soccer country, and of course also our son is playing soccer. Normally I always teach workshops on the Saturdays and this means I miss almost all my son’s games, so when I’m free on a Saturday I always try to catch him play. This Saturday he was playing an away game in Steenwijk and because I was free I decided to join the team for the game and play taxi 😀

I have to add that although most of the posted material on the blog is fashion/model material I love to do sports and street photography so when I have the change to do something with sports I will do that as much as possible. I use a Canon 5DMKII for the sports with most of the time the Canon 100-400L. I’ve tested a lot of lenses over the years in this range but eventually came back to the 100-400L recently for the simple reason that it has the best combination of factors. It’s not the sharpest, it’s not the longest or fastest but when taking all the points into account I have to say that for me… it’s THE lens I love. Would love to see an updated version however with f4 however, and seeing the other released lenses I really don’t understand why Canon doesn’t revamp this one.

As you might already know I’m in the middle of test sessions for new models which will be used during our workshops. Last week it was time for Simone, and as you can probably see from the images I’m glad to be adding her to our line up of models for the workshops. So in this blog post today some of the images we did during her testsession. The testsessions are always around 2 hours and we try to shoot some simple setups and see what the model does in front of the camera with little coaching.
