Last Monday in the lunch hour my model Maria Ishoel Frelsøy, assistant and make-up artist Line Sofie Steinfinsbø had a little video shoot at the rooftop of Trondheim Torg for my fashion project. The preview and the rest of the clip is filmed with Canon 5D Mark II and a 50mm f/1.4. Soundtrack is Soleplassland by Tre Små Kinesere.

Today I received a Nikon D7000 that I got to borrow from Camera & Videoteknikk AS for product testing, mainly the movie capabilities of this DSLR.

Third part of my photo-series with Rachel Nordtømme I did in the beginning of February. Makeup-artist and hair was done by Line Sofie Steinfinsbø.

Yesterday I was at Kos Bar&Lounge and Club Vega for Hipster.no. It was a bit stress full, but I got to meet quite a few interesting people that was having a nice evening. The pictures are being post-processed by a Hipster and are coming on-line Monday morning.

Traveling again

Tickets for both Oslo and Ã…rhus is now payed. I am going to stay in Oslo for three days photographing Truls Svendsen and hopefully Rachel Nordtømme for my assignments at Norsk Fotofagskole. I’ll be back next Wednesday with my hard drive packed with raw-material for post processing.

This is the second part of my fashion series I shot with Rachel Nordtømme last Sunday. Makeupartist is Line Sofie Steinfinsbø whom I used on quite a few photo shoots the past months. Shoes are borrowed from Bianco Footwear at Trondheim Torg, other styling is Rachels own wardrobe.

Reporter for TV2

Rachel had a bit unfortunate picture in yesterdays newspaper so I figured I’ll publish two more to compensate somewhat strange face mimics VG-photographer André Pedersen managed to catch her with. Hopefully Rachel would be more pleased with these two portraits I’ve published of her. The story was about Rachel Nordtømme, being Petter Northug’s girlfriend, covering the World Ski Championship for TV2. Want to know more about the World Ski Championship, head over to www.oslo2011.no. This is probably one of the few times I will promote this form of sports on my blogg.

Sick leave for a week

It’s less than two weeks until I am leaving for Marrakesh, school trip with Norsk Fotofagskole. Last week I took the dukoral, the cholera vaccine, and reacted quite badly. I got almost a week sick leave for having hyperthermia, a running nose, soar throat and head ache. I thought I was well Sunday morning so I went on photographing the shoot with Rachel and Trine, when I got home I got worse again. I will be up and fighting on Thursday, hopefully :)

Jeg har forresten presentert bloggen min på Bloggurat.

I couldn’t take my hands of the pictures today and had to run one through post production despite fever, head ace, soar throat and a running nose. I liked this portrait of Rachel Nordtømme very much because of her relaxed expression, the wind machine gave the hair a little breeze to lighten the mood and give the portrait more dynamic instead of just an anti-posed posture.
Makeup and hair is done by Line Sofie Steinfinsbø.
