I’ve been wanting to work in the studio again for quite some time. But something always seemed to interfere: I didn’t have enough time, or the model cancelled at the last moment, or the studio wasn’t available.
Last Sunday, all came together, and I finally got around to doin’ a shoot. Kristel was modeling for me this time. Thank you girl!!! I had a great time in the studio. And I must say, I’m pretty pleased with the results. Here’s a couple…
Of course: a big thank you to Willy for letting me use the studio, for all the help, and for the tips & tricks. The hair pieces are provided by Miss Needles.
More photos of this studio session in Kristel’s album.
I’m back to being a webmaster again.
My photo club has started their own website: www.fotoclubdifo.be. And they’ve asked me to sort things out. We found us a domain name, hosting provider, and I’m now building the framework for the site and a gallery.
I had been webmaster of a Belgian Springsteen website for almost 8 years, until we decided to call it quits. I always loved being a webmaster. When my photo club asked me to set up their website, I was more then happy to put my knowledge to work.
I went to visit the Margraten American Cemetery and Memorial yesterday. It’s the only official American WWII cemetery in the Netherlands. As the Dutch celebrate Liberation Day on May 5th and since the weather was nice, this weekend seemed an excellent opportunity for a visit.
More photos can be found here.
A few weeks back, I went to the coalmine in Waterschei with model Stephanie and my good friend and fellow photographer Luc Bogaerts for a photoshoot. Although the shoot didn’t go quite as planned: a few models that we had contacted cancelled because they were ill and I was ill too.
Despite the little problems, the shoot was fun to do. And I would like to take this opportunity to thank Stephanie for her efforts and her patience.
Take a look at the rest of the photos in Stephanie’s album.
It has been a very busy Springsteen week. Springsteen announced the first concerts to support his new album with Pete Seeger covers. Tickets went on sale for most European shows in the past week. As usual, it has been an absolute nightmare to get tickets. I managed to get tickets for Paris and Amsterdam, but not for London.
Anyone wanna trade a pair of category 1 tickets for Paris for a pair of tickets to the London show? 😉
And last Thursday, I got a chance to preview Springsteen’s new album. Sony BMG had organized a listing party for the Belgian music press and a select group of Springsteen fans. Free food, free drinks and above all a first listen at We Shall Overcome The Seeger Sessions.
Here’s a few shots from that night:
I went to a little park in Merksplas with model Katleen Struyven the other day to shoot some photos. It was a fun shoot. A big thanks to Katleen for her time and effort.
More photo’s of Katleen can be found in her album.
We had another model shoot at DIFO last Tuesday. Ellen was kind enough to pose for me and my colleagues at DIFO. Thank you Ellen!
More of Ellen here.
I ran into Roos Van Acker at the Dag v/d Amateurfotograaf organized by the Antwerp Fotomuseum and het Centrum voor Beeldexpressie.
I have removed the links page from the site. I moved to most interesting links to the menu on the left. It is too troublesome to maintain, and it was confusing to have links in the menu and on a separate page.
I’m getting sick and tired of spam! First, I get flooded with spam via e-mail. With a little help from my hosting provider, I got rid of most of the spam in my mail. Now, I get spammed through our blog. Anoying!
So, I have decided to close the blog for non-registered users. And I don’t even know if I will allow people to register.
