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.
Every once in a while I do a so called testshoot.
Those are mainly aimed at finding new models for our workshops, I strongly believe it’s important to keep getting new faces to keep myself and the students fresh 😀
This time it was Lisanne’s turn, she will be used for the glamour workshops but as you can see she can also perfectly fit the normal workshops. The testshoots are never spectacular result wise but a good way to introduce the new models.

A while ago I posted if there would be some interest for a Twitter meeting in our studio in Emmeloord. As it seems there was indeed interest so I decided to plan a date on a short notice to test out what would happen and if in the future we could do something like this but bigger.
On the 16th of January (yesterday) it was that date.
We decided to start at app. 12:00AM to give everyone a change to drive here on the Sunday, there was no set end time.
Because I did not give that much attention to the meeting I did not expect much people joining but to my surprise there were app 20 people who signed up for the meeting, and for a first time I thought that was more than enough so we stopped mentioning the twitter meeting online.
The group was complete at 12:30 and we started with some coffee and an introduction (somehow those introductions always remind me of the AA meetings you see in the movies, “Hi, my real name is …….. and I use twitter under the name off”….. 😀
After the getting to know each other session we voted for a few locations to visit and as expected (or at least by me) Urk won.
Urk is a fisher town very close to Emmeloord and without a doubt for photographers (or just tourists) a great place to visit, to be honest I always test new gear there simply because there is so much to see and I love being there.
On Friday and Saturday I taught two 1: 1 workshops with themes in fashion and swimclothing.
For Friday our model was Nadine and on Saturday it was time for Sheena and Cherelle to join us in the studio.
The team :
Models : Nadine, Cherelle, Sheena
MUA : Carla
A while ago I got an Email from Angela asking me if I would like to work with her.
You have to realize that I get loads of those mails and it’s a reality that most of the “models” are not fitting for my own portfolio, but as every photographer als I have to work very hard to keep my portfolio updated and interesting, and the best way to do that is to work without restrictions and with a top team. So I mailed Angela that if she would deliver a well thought out concept and nice clothing we could always work something out……
And she did, so yesterday it was time for the session.
Sometimes we stream sessions live over the internet via our StudioFD live page (you can find that on this site), and this session was perfect for that, so if you watched the stream, these are the final results.
Our team also shot a backstage video which I hope will be edited next week and uploaded as soon as we have it done, so you have something to watch our for from this session 🙂

Model : Angela Bloemsaat
