A freestyling photoshoot with actor Imre van den Bosch
Clothing by Nina Schilp
After an absence of 3,5 years I am reviving the blog on my website to present my recent work.
I made this image together with Imre van den Bosch in the attic of an old empty house in my hometown of Utrecht which was up for sale at the time. It was a great opportunity to explore the character and vibe of the rooms and fit in our ideas
Imre van den Bosch is theatremaker, so finding interesting poses that tell a story in the deserted rooms of the house was a breeze.
Assisting me during the photoshoot was Joost Voets.
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.

I have not been posting much lately, but that doesn't mean I have not been busy. Actually, busy is the word at the moment. There have been a lot of photography-projects and assignments going on recently and some exciting stuff coming up.
For one I am preparing a photography course in the south of France in May. There is still room for four participants if anyone is interested. Check out the website www.chez-castillon.com and this link for more information.
I am also working on organizing photography workshops this year for a small group of photographers. The first on the list is with smoke, fireworks and a model and the second will be with professional (ballet) dancers. All in/around Utrecht.
And there is more.
Today Art paid me a visit. Art does a lot of (fashion)model work and he wanted me to do some out-of-the-box photography with him. This is one of the results. The pose and lighting is inspired by a beautiful painting I saw a few months ago.

I am always keen to work on new ideas and concepts.
This is an idea I have been brooding on for a time and here is a first experiment. It is not quite there yet where I want it but I think it is already quite presentable.
Let's call it temporary tattooing or virtual bodypainting. This is not achieved by photoshop but the real thing! And no, it is not a tattoo. Things you can do with a light source....
Thank you to my model Michiel van Ieperen, who actually came along for a Mad Max-inspired photoshoot, but we started off on a whim trying out this idea.
Yes, I do nude photography too, but normally don't post the results. This is a photograph from a nude photoshoot I did quite some time ago with my good friend Jan.
Below a detail of the image.
A result of a portrait-assignment, doing a series of portraits on location. I took this picture in broad daylight in the livingroom of my client, not using any kind of backdrop screen.
My client asked for a series of portraits in my personal style with nothing visible in the background.
