This post is a little late – but we took these photos a couple days ago, so we were still within the weekly schedule. It’s just the social media posting that is an afterthought.

However I tried to re-create something I read on a blog post. And so you get your model to bring her curtains from home and wrap herself into them in the back office. Not quite sure if I am really satisfied with the results. There’s room for optimization for sure. But with all the white it’s a good contrast to the dark images we took recently. Continue reading →

There was no time to do something this week. So we decided to just do something spontaneous. I bought a pack of sparklers, we went outside and these were the results. Not pictured: Dirty shoes and mud all over my pants. Continue reading →

Today the high time of the German carnival season has started. We used the occasion to dress Franzi up in a bunch of different costumes. So we’ve got a cop, a cat, a reindeer and a pirate. Arrrrr! Continue reading →

So, I started photography 10 years ago. I got my camera after Christmas 2005. It’s been a wild ride, picking up this hobby got me into all kinds of other things (mostly music related), but also travelling and much more. But it’s always been a hobby with ups and downs. Sometimes motivation is high, sometimes it’s low. Sometimes you invest a lot and go the extra mile, and then you do nothing for an entire month. I wanted to do something a little more steady and so I committed myself to do a weekly project in 2016! Meet Project 52! Continue reading →
