Fourteenth Collection

"My passion lies in creating images which are conceptual, they come from my thoughts, observations, experimentations and experiences. I desire to look beneath the surface and study the relationships between people, their surroundings, and then project it into my images. My work identifies personality through sexuality, sensuality.

I approached this lovely girl on the street and invited her for a shoot. I got lucky, we made an appointment and had a very exciting shoot. She was wonderful. Some pictures were taken in the studio. I have been experimenting with light because I wanted her beautiful blond hair to come into focus. I wanted the picture mood to be something gracefully in an old-fashioned way. I think that worked out allright.

Model: Isabell Sophie Mayr

Model: Anelicke Neethling
Anelicke is from Pretoria and as everybody can see she is a fitness fanatic
The shoot was done in my studio using a three light setup with a white background, Editing was done in photoshop

This is a beautiful photo of my dearest wife.
For years, I have been looking for beautiful women to take photo photos of their dark sides.
And all these while, little that i know that my wife is such a dark beauty.

This photo started out as a motivation for my wife to practice her makeup skills and I forced her to pose for a photo afterwards.
She has refused to have her photos taken ever since she got pregnant with our first child.
This is a photo that happened about 20 Months since her last photo.

I am glad that I share this photo with the world.
Thank you

This was actually just shot after sunset so quickly had to get some last minute natural light photos. Found a good green spot nearby after a few photos into sunset and used the last remaining available light. Slightly tilted the camera to produce this unique composition that I love very dearly.

Naturally light, natural model, natural beauty ... the beautiful Sena for the first time before the camera... Thank you very much Model: @nanaille_

This photo occurred with natural environmental light!
I often take photos with less depth of sharpness.
So I can emphasize my model distinctly.
The background seems fanciful and the model is
the center of attention.
Thank you Jennifer
You are wonderful!

Yet another picture of my girlfriend Sara.
I have been asked a lot about the light setup, which is actually just a single flash pointed into a white wall behind me.
We don't use a lot of expensive gear and the pictures are mostly shot in our small living room.

This image was captured outdoors, using a combination of ambient light and strobe. The beautiful subject of the photo, Estefania Mas, is a Yogi and holistic health practitioner and educator in Miami, Florida.

"My World"
this is the first image of a just started series of mine. black&white and - like this one - desaturated Colors will dominate the pictures.
taken in my studio with a 2 flashes (main flash with beauty dish & soft diffusor and a flash with softbox to control the shadows).

Every photographer knows the value of good natural light. When Shannon asked us to photograph her wedding and led us to the room where she would get ready I knew immediately that this window would play a major role in the bridal session. Moments before she descended to her groom Shannon stood by this window and peered over the place where she would say her vows. I worked this window light for as long as I could. Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Watson! We wish you prosperity and happiness!!!!

THANK YOU @portraitphotoawards for selecting this image as a Winner!!!

Actually from a shooting with a customer, but she gave me the permission to send it to the competition. She's not familiar with posing in front of a camera but she has a beautiful face and I like her really natural expression! Windowlight only.

Image name: Reverie

One part of the series. For me, it's not just a face but a story and an expression of emotion.

The backlighting from the late afternoon sun was exactly what I was looking for to light up her wreath crown. I had been on location for this Commercial shoot for Trendy Bambini in Toronto, Canada since the early morning, enjoying the different phases of the sun and its ever changing light...but this was the sweetest light by far. And so was this model, sweet as could be and such a trouper. I had photographed roughly 20 children that day, but she stayed till the end, still willing to put on another gorgeous communion dress and smile all over again.

Recently I did a project as a tribute to the beauty of redheads. The model in this image was one of my favourites. More info here: www.ottchemnitz.com

Title: Red
Model: Louise Larsen

This 7 year old kid has been a big brother for a year and a half and he is absolutely thriving in his new role. On weekends he gets up the second he hears little brother is awake, gets him out of his crib, grabs him some breakfast and plays with him in order to give us a few more minutes in bed. So thoughtful and tender, so much love and compassion for his family and friends, and I feel this picture captures all of those qualities in him.

When the light is able to make a beautiful women a real dream. Fantastic look absolutely natural and romantic, she has been able to create an emphasis unique and online with the moment.

This image, in my perspective, portrays the true beauty of natural joy. It's one of the loveliest things in our world, the feeling is truly overcoming and often times it can be difficult to capture these moments in their candid states. So a huge thank you to the model, Paige, for allowing me to do so.
