Christmas card 2010

My sister and her family visited me in Stockholm a couple of weeks ago and I took the annual Christmas card photo of my niece and nephews.



And a few portraits.

International Aperture Awards 2010

I entered three prints in the International Aperture Awards 2010. One in people category, one in wedding and one in Illustrative.

Wedding

I kind of new that the wedding shot would work. It scored a bronze award, only a point under silver award, so maybe a tiny bit disappointed.




People

Judges always like crisp photos and most of this image is not (effect), although the subject is. I wasn’t surprised that it didn’t get as high scores, but still a bronze award.




Illustrative

I have been very close, but never got any awards in Illustrative before. The competition is usually murderous in that category.

The print I entered is probably one of the strangest images I have ever done. I haven’t even posted it here, because I couldn’t decide if I liked it or not. I honestly had no idea how it would be received in a competition; it’s probably an image you like or dislike.

I got a bronze award and the same score as the wedding image, one point below silver.






I have previously won a silver award in the Australian Professional Photography Awards 2010 with another version of the image.




I am of course very pleased with three awards out of three prints. And there is always next year.

I am Spartacus

I’m so proud of him.
Liam McIntyre is one of three actors vying for the lead role in Spartacus. Of course I hope he will get it.

The photos below are taken the first time I met him. It was winter, freezing and we shot a film noir series outside in an alleyway. He was modelling with another model and from memory I took these in between shots.

Liam




We went to a fabulous Halloween party last year. Oh how I love costume parties.
