Leica September 9th

I have been a Leica follower and “light” user over the years, following my father’s own gears.

Until now Leica has been for a bunch of elitists but the change is to come on September 9th.

You may have heard of the medium format size sensor S2 Leica D-SLR around the net ?

Exciting announcement are coming on September 9th and you can even subscribe to the live broadcast here

Man, I miss this (is)land

I’ve been living there so long and never though of enjoying its endless beauty.

Organizing my landscape photos and I came across this series  I shot sometimes ago. It was a sunny day, as it is almost 10 months per year.

I remember never swimming in its water when it’s below 26 degrees Celsius system …

I’ll be back very soon.

Fashion Studio

You may have noticed that I use to drag my models out to the cold for shooting, at least last winter, it’s not to be mean to models, and they know that I love ’em :), but it’s more about creativity …

I just try to be a bit different from the crowd a bit. I’d say that for outdoor shoot is more demanding, technically, for lighting and you really need a lot of juice, if you want more than what the available light on location gives you of course.

Well, now that winter is about to go away, I will definitely get back to the studio for more fun shoots.
In or out, I like to control my lighting and most of the time, for outdoor shoots, I tend to “erase” the ambient with my flashes.
Anyway, here are a few “indoor” shoot with some gorgeous and really talented models.

I shot these with some Carl Zeiss lenses fitted on my Canons with special adapters. I’d say that the contrast from these lenses are really incredible.

I had some of my L series lenses for the shoot but mainly used the Zeiss ones. They are so yummy> Also note that these guys are all manual, from focusing to aperture setting, but again, in studio situations, things tend to be a bit “easier”.

Amanda Choong, behind the scene at the market place

A few weeks ago I did a photoshoot with a young and yet talented inspiring model, Amanda Choong.
The shoot took place at a marketplace outside of Canberra. It was cold of course but the model performed as a professional model.
Check out the video (don’t forget to flick the HD button) below a few new photos.
A big thank to Jean Paul Groove, a close friend of mine, to have mixed the music and a special thank to Vincent, my brother, for the video.
Enjoy the show.
