egg of the phoenix

We were out yesterday to do the outstanding shooting in the snow for this year- and yes, it was really, really cold! I had the chance again to work with Julia Krantz who made two amazing outfits and in the last moment two pairs of huge, matching boots as well. We were shooting on a frozen lake in Lerum with two models from ModelOne, Therese and Alex, who were both doing a fantastic job although they were barely dressed and it was incredibly cold. We had organized before that we were allowed to use a football clubhouse there, to fix hair and makeup and warm us up, which was a definite lifesaver. Great fun!

Here the first part of a session I was shooting with Kelly (Avenue Modeller)  a while ago at Belle… (Makeup: Malin Karlsson)

A while ago I had the pleasure of shooting the 2nd time with the german model “Babalon Salome”, who came for a visit to Sweden. Above some of the shots. (Make up by Angelica Klüft.)

Here some quick snapshots of the last shooting I did yesterday for the hat designer TES. We were shooting the new autumn/winter collection 2010 with the beautiful model Liza Berggren.

As I wrote before, I have been working on the layout and artwork of the new CD of my friend Calle. Now it’s done and I finally have the finished digipak in my hands!  You can hear some of his songs on his myspace page and on youtube.

I had the pleasure lately shooting portraits and dance pictures of the choreographer Moa Sahlin. (www.dansbyran.se) Above a few of the pictures from that series.

I had the pleasure to work with the tattoo artist Maximilian Gasolini (www.inkstation.nu) lately- both children are actually his kids. Above two of the pictures! (For non-swedish speakers- “far” means “dad”…)

(I just got some comments about the tattoos- just to clarify – the tattoos are in fact painted- not real tattoos!)

My friend Calle is finishing his new album right now and I have been working on the CD cover and booklet the last days. I am still not done but looking forward to be able to show it soon! Above two portraits I took of him a long time ago- they are not really related to the cover but it is the closest I can show until now…

Here my picture of Jan Isaksson on the cover of the current bodyfication issue! It will be in the stores this week! You will find some more of my photographs inside the issue.

I just got my tearsheet from the Fiberart magazine. The textile artist Julia Krantz was published there this month showing her Shell Series of which I took the photographs. Above a little text which is additionally on the fiberart website.
