Last week’s Mylene Farmer show in Paris was great. Yesterday’s show in Brussels was even better. We had a better view of the stage and the sound at the Boudewijn stadium was good (surprise!). The advantage of having an iPhone, is that I have a camera with me at all times. The disadvantage is that the iPhone’s camera is pretty crap. Especially in harsh light circumstances the shots come out like crap. And still I couldn’t resist…
Just got home from a weekend in Paris. Not my favorite city in the world as many of you know. But when Mylene Farmer is in town for a show, Paris seems a whole lot nicer. I actually had fun this weekend: good show, good food, good company, nice hotel… I don’t think there’s a lot more I can ask.
I dropped by my friends of Apertura and Miss Fashion on the way home to say hello while they were shooting in Antwerp. Such a petty I couldn’t make it to the shoot, but it was still nice to see everyone having fun.
Yesterday’s 4th edition of PhotoVaganza seemed to be a success. Gert and I received a lot of thank you notes. Makes me very happy.
I have been a little busy and preoccupied lately, so Gert did most of the work for this edition. And he did well! Thanks for your effort Gert! I managed to give Gert a little hand the last couple of days and by 10’o clock, we were ready.
People start arriving a few at a time: familiar faces, but also a lot of new faces. Some eager to shoot, others a little bashful and unfamiliar with the concept. But when they saw what was goin’ on, those feelings quickly disappeared. And by 6pm, we had a nice crowd gathering for the traditional pizza buffet.
And then, after the crowd had left and the lights went down, it was time for a little fun with my closest friends…
Luc, Glenn, Alain and myself had a little impromptu shoot with our favorite models: Mariana and Eef. Big fun!!!
Next Saturday, September 5, 2009 in CC de Schrijnwerkerij, Geel: the 4th edition of PhotoVaganza, an event for models, photographers, stylists, make-up artists and more. You are kindly invited.
My friends of Apertura, myself and my new lovely friends of Miss Fashion 2010 set up camp in the dunes of the Lommelse Sahara for the 2nd of 3 shoots we’re doin’ together. Hard work and a sunny day turned the shoot in a lot of fun… The little side project and dinner was great fun too…
Here’s a couple of shots of the team in action.
I guess that our make-up artists had the toughest job this time. They had to work in harsh conditions: wind and sand gave them everything but a clean working environment.
I promised a couple of shots from the Miss Fashion fashion show at the X Beach the other day. Finished post processing yesterday evening, so here it goes… Enjoy…
I had the pleasure of bein’ an assistant and 2nd shooter to my friend Bart Henseler at the Wedding of Cindy & Bruno. While Bart was discussing some of the upcoming shots with the happy couple, I took a typical shot of the bride’s flower arrangement. I kinda like it, so I’ld like to share it.
I joined the girls of Miss Fashion yesterday for their fashion show at X Beach in Koksijde. For some strange reason I ended up in a Dodge Viper 90 feet up in the air…
Wondering if I’m going complety nuts or if this is midlife crisis?
Thanks Karin for lettin’ join the fun and shooting these pics. And Melissa… Thanks for holding my hand on the way down 😉 Photos of the fashion show are still to come.
