The alternative image I made together with dancers Martina Orlandi and Paolo Yao Kouadio for the cover of the Theater De Kom programme for the season 2017-2018. Yesterday I posted the image that was chosen for the cover.
I very much like this one, though, because of the crazy perspective lines.
I had the opportunity to do photography for the new cover of the programme for the season 2017-2018 of Theater De Kom. Theater De Kom is celebrating its' 5th birthday in the new building, reason to throw confetti and have two great dancers (Martina Orlandi, who now works at Korzo Theater and Paolo Yao Kouadio, who now works for Holland Opera and Danstheater AYA) do a high-five in the air.
This shot was taken on the main stage of the theatre. In the background you can see the theatre seating area.

An on-the-go portrait of Paolo Yao Kouadio I took as we were 'freestyling' after a great photoshoot I had with him and Martina Orlandi. The aim of the photoshoot was to get material for the cover of a new theatre publication. As soon as things get definite I will publish the end result(s) of the photoshoot.
Both Paolo and Martina are very talented dancers and wonderful in front of the camera.
Thanks all!

A final one (for the moment) from my photoshoot with Paolo Yao Kouadio and Martina Orlandi.

One of the many great shots I took during the photoshoot with Martina Orlandi and Paolo Yao Kouadio in Rotterdam recently.

A portrait I took on-the-go during a photoshoot session with Paolo Yao Kouadio and Martina Orlandi yesterday.
Paolo is a professional dancer, currently dancing with the De Stilte dancegroup. Paolo and Martina asked me if I would take some pictures for their dance-portfolio. We had an inspiring photoshoot in an old warehouse in Rotterdam. I will post a few of the results soon.
Improvising in between the video-takes. A picture I took of performer Paola Ghidini during our filming-session to get shots for a new video on the design of italian designer Corradino Garofalo. Paola is 'wearing' a shiny metal collar made from the flexible objects Corradino Garofalo designed.
The video and pictures were taken at De Stilte in Breda and is now in post-production.

In this shot I only used natural daylight.

The title is a quote from the movie "Ex machina", a masterful story about a possible (inevitable?) next step in evolution on this planet: robots with artificial intelligence. I consider this movie a must see; very intriguing.

This is a shot of Paolo Yao Kouadio taken in between sessions of filming to get material for a new video. Once more the shiny metallic masks of italian designer Corradino Garofalo was subject matter and the talented performers Paola Ghidini and Paolo Yao Kouadio were so kind to interpret moods in movements. The video and pictures were taken at De Stilte in Breda and is now in post-production.
Working with creative people is so much fun. The energy of ideas was sparkling during our photoshoot somewhere in the city of Breda. Let's try this. Let's try that.
For the photoshoot I singled out a specific area near the city-centre and the objective was that the models/performers use the elements they saw and combined it with their passion: dance and conveying emotion. When we arrived at a new location I didn't have to ask 'what kind of images do you think we make with this'. They immediately started with their creative process. Very admirable.
This is one of the resulting images.
A photoshoot I did with the talented performers Davide Guarino, Paolo Yao Kouadio, Wiktoria Czakon and Donna Scholten. Photography-assistent during the shoot was my friend Andrew Greening.
Bring her home: creating a story-telling scene in an elevator.
