Video Portrait Frank Doorhof

During “The Photography Show” in Birmingham this video was released with a video portrait from me.
The video was shot for the series on Smugmug Pros.

 

Today I’m very proud to show it on my blog.

 

Fleamarket

Now a lot of people ask me how I became interested in street photography.
Well indeed it’s a bit different from the fashion work we do, but I think it also has a lot of similarities, in my street photography I always try to get the story, the feeling, the tension or movement, Jay Maisel for example calls it Gesture, I call it…. well after hearing that also Gesture 😀 (who can argue with Jay right?)

 

Finding that special thing, that special feeling is something that I try to do in both my fashion work and streetphotography, in my opinion that’s what sets the snapshot apart from the street photography. Now let me make clear that I only do streetphotography as a hobby and no way claim to be a pro at it, however over time I did find some things that I think can be very interesting for someone starting out with this kind of photography.

 

One of the most asked questions is always “Where to go?”
Well if you live in a city like New York that’s not hard, it’s a circus coming into town 24/7/365 it’s just not fair, but if you live somewhere else (like most people) some cool places are always close, let’s for example look at some images I took at a standard flea market.

I wanna be a pro !

This is a mail I get a few times a month so I decided it was maybe time to dedicate a blog post to it.
Of course professional photographers are living the dream.
We fly around the world in private jets, dring champagne with the stars.
Have several beautiful models around giving back-rubs and bringing you all the food/drinks you can wish for……

Ok snap out of it…..

We are just back from the Professional Imaging 2011.
3 Days of trade show, seminars, workshops and networking.
For me the Professional imaging is always something I look forward to but also three days of very intense work, I almost constantly demo on the booth from Fotoflits (Elinchrom) and have meetings with people that follow my work.

Here you can see the video from day 3 (the last day)
