The portfolio shoot - 3 (3)






When finishing Sara's green shot, the clock had passed 18.00. One thing missed by a lot of people is the fact that good pictures take time! I usually shoot very few shots per setting, but just putting everything up, fixing the light, finding the pose, adjusting the clothes with clamps, correcting the hair and getting the model into the right mood take time.

Hungry but happy after some sweet shots, we headed for Jonas' parents 25 minutes away to fill up our stomach and get the last shot - a beach shot of Maria.

Yup, the ladies love these behind the scenes shots. :-) The photographer on his bare knees on a leash in front of lady Dominance.

Consider the fact of slipping and dropping the Hasselblad H3D-31 into the water... It is a hard and nervous job as a photographer.

We got home 3 minutes before the supermarket closed at 22.00 and I ran in barefoot to buy a steak for dinner.
So the last bit was unpacking the bus, serving champagne for the ladies and cooking mashed potatoes, wine and cream gravy and oven grilled lamb. The original plan was to hit town but everyone was totally exhausted, so we stay at home giggling over the behind the scenes shots.
