One of the night time photographs I took on my travels to Malaysia last month.
An image from my photoshoot with model Johan I am very happy with. Take a model, add some make up, some acrylic paint, some feathers and a stick. Get the lighting right. And shoot.
Last week I went to London for a few days to see my good friend David Headley who owns Goldsboro Books in Cecil Court. I had four of my photographs with me which are now on exhibition there.
During one of our evening outings, walking Davids' dog Mia, I took my camera along and decided to take some long exposure with deliberate movement. This is one of the nice photographs that came out of this.
Imagine yourself a solitary mangrove tree a few feet from the shore line, a slowly incoming tide, a clear nightsky with thousands of stars and a building site behind you with a security light aimed straight at your tree. This was the setting for this picture I took somewhere on the northern coast of Bali.
The tree for me symbolizes the struggle that nature has against the encroaching species called humans. Even here on Bali. The fact that only half of the tree has leaves is quite ominous... I imagine that this part of the coast was previously an extensive mangrove forest. Now all is cleared, the beaches and the coral reefs a little further away are used by tourists and the land directly next to the beach is being steadily filled by extensive hotels.
The building site behind me, admittedly convenient for this picture, is a next slice of the cake that is being cut off from the original cake called nature.
A long exposure.
From a cool photoshoot with fashionmodel Michiel van Ieperen and Miriam Czakon. The photoshoot was intended as a cross-over between fashion and 'arty'-storytelling. Some pictures will be available soon. At the end of the photoshoot I suggested to do a couple of portraits with Rembrandt-style lighting. This is one of the nice ones of Miriam.
I am open to all kinds of photography assignments and opportunities. Interested in a photoshoot or know someone who is and you like my work: you can contact me through jos@jkimages.nl
I am just back from holiday and already a lot of work and exciting projects going on. So hardly any time to focus on some of the cool pictures I took on Bali, Indonesia. But, don't worry, I will be posting some of the best shots of Bali very soon.

Another nice portrait of Nicolas taken during our photoshoot last week. I took this picture using only natural ambient light. See my previous posts to see some of the other pictures we made together.

Another result of an awesome photoshoot I had with Nicolas Simons.
Nicolas wrote me asking if I would want to do a photoshoot with him. He wanted some awesome (nude) pictures; all in good taste and in my style.
So I drove down to Antwerp with my gear and a few props and we took some great photographs in a deserted farm outside the city.
