baby mosaics

Leander changed a lot in the recent year, from a tiny little baby to a not so tiny little boy. But one thing never changed, he’s still so cute and has such a rich facial expression, we enjoy it every day.

Enjoy it, too!

This the first shot from yesterdays shooting together with Mike Le Gray and Model Loredana. She’s a gorgeous model and we got some quite nice shots, but it’s still a long way ahead until I’m really able to make the pictures I have in mind…

faces of japan

An arbitrary collection of portraits. Japanese people, men, women, old & young. A monk in Tokyo, Harajuku cosplayer, a fake Geisha in Kyoto, people on Matsuris or just people in the street. Ten different faces…

on-location

manganite — Wed, 17 Mar 2010 21:00:26 +0000

Last Sunday togehther with Mike Le Gray Photography and teani photography I did my first on-location model shooting. For a first try the output was okay, but the whole thing was much more difficult than thought before. But the model was great and very patient with us and the location absolutely perfect for that kind of shooting. We should definitely give it another try.

Above picture is another one in my series of cosplay portraits taken 2006 in Harajuku, Tokyo. And it was just selected to be shown on an exhibition organized by ipernity.com during the World Photography Festival in Cannes in April this year!

That’s just very exciting news! Thanks to the ipernity team for that
