Girly Pictures

2012-01-18T03:14:00.000+13:00

I liked the way the light pole looked and how the light spilled around the area. I'm trying not too keep these photographs as purely formal images, I am at the moment looking for an overall or several concepts in what I'm photographing.

2012-01-02T04:32:00.001+13:00

Here are three photos from a camera test i did. The pictures are from a smal island in the south of Norway. I photographed my friends.

Two late night photographs.

I got out a camera i found at a dump and decided to take it to a themed Christmas party. I am usually relatively hard on editing photos down to as few as possible, but this time it was too hard. Probably shooting film again is making me nostalgic.

2011-04-30T17:01:00.000+12:00

Got some more snaps from my diana camera coming up. Imagine if this was your office!

2011-04-23T04:10:00.000+12:00

Follow your feet. This day was the last swim of the year. Just went down and hung around in the sun. I took some other photos on my diana, I'm sure they will come out in a week or two when I have finished the film. These are a bit cheesy, and some of them would suit well in a dentist office for you to meditate on before he sticks a drill into your moth.

A day at Coffin Rock. I did take more photos, but in good style I opened the back before I rolled on the film. Miraculously only 3 photos where lost, however those three pictures where of the amazing little coffin-shaped pool that you jump into. Here are two of the survivors.

2011-04-16T21:18:00.000+12:00

At this point in the night it had already dragged on way past any form for conversation. Nobody ceased any opportunity to halt the good times and go to bed and just kept going.

2011-04-02T19:22:00.002+13:00

I have heaps of new photos to put up, but i am working for real at the moment. Its strangling the life out of everything important. Pleas hold on though for more exiting stuff!

Swamp Rockin' Zombie - Thunderbox from Max Volt on Vimeo.

A music video i directed. I made it with Max Volt and Thunderbox. Its pretty hot so watch out.

2011-03-13T18:52:00.002+13:00

Ok. So I havent been out taking photos as much the last two weeks. Im working, so i put together three older images I have been thinking about. The contrast and the colors clashed so i just took out some black. Anyway a-bit of POV stuff. I bet i could make some more cooler ones.

2011-03-11T22:01:00.004+13:00

Spring from Northwest Digital on Vimeo.

Here is a film i made over a year ago. We just remastered the sound for it. It's better now. It stars Mick Innes and Roberto Nascimento. If you want to know more about whos involved its all in the credits. Some people find it a bit arty, but you know we gotta have arty stuff too.

Now that some of my films are reaching the end of their festival journeys its time to share them on the internet. I will show you more film stuff in the future.

The strange senario that unfolded when the boy threw his Barbie collection into the pool. Nobody cared. I don't know why, but barbie seems like a bitch. She is always demanding more; a new house, car, camper van, clothes... if i was in a relationship with barbie, maybe I would kill her too.

2011-03-08T00:10:00.001+13:00

So i went to a pool party. This kid turns up with a box full of barbie dolls. I asked him if he was going to take them for a bath. Then he said 'yes' and threw them all in the pool. Even though he loves his barbies, he treated them rough. More pictures to come!

2011-03-05T10:28:00.001+13:00

Just a little series that looks cool.

2011-03-05T02:05:00.001+13:00

Great things happen to this view

2011-03-02T23:28:00.001+13:00

I was going to throw my little camera away, its all scartched and worn and making funny sounds and stuff. But it looks like it can squeeze out a few more photos. Anyway here is a little titillating series for you. It happened somewhere in-between sober and drunk.

2011-02-26T20:27:00.002+13:00

Above: Two students casually looking at the view from their flat. I was in Wellington for a bit. I borrowed my friends tiny little camera and wore it around the neck, it was so small people didn't even realize i was photographing. These are just some little moments a got playing around doing daytime adventures. Anyway... I've got a few more pictures from the NZ capital, i will leak them over the next few days after i have had a looked at them.

2011-02-26T18:52:00.001+13:00

This guy!

2011-02-26T18:03:00.000+13:00

...new years jelly poo...

2011-02-19T14:28:00.002+13:00

2011 the year for change i think. As summer again is warming my skin i have rediscovered my old cameras and have stared taking them for walks again. I have also changed the name of this photo album from "Show Me Everything" to "girly pictures". Its the start of something new and more cognitive (i hope). I am no longer a student, i am a real person. So I will need a more commercial slant to my projects to survive. But as i am currently out of a job I'm free to do whatever I want, so here is some photos of people jumping of cliffs and playing in the sea.

A series of photos from a few days inside a house on an island.

2010-07-06T13:46:00.001+12:00

I have been a bit slow with my uploads to this little site, but don't worry i have been hard at work. Instead of photographs i have made some short film and been writing. I cant show you the films that i have made reasontly, but i will post two films i made last year as soon as they are made public on the internet. So just hold on and you will be entertained. Meanwhile, you can look at this photo:

Fishy

I keep making montages for various reasons. I though it was about time to get them out there as a collection so i have edited them down to a collection of 5 that i am planing to print out 10 editions of and try to sell. Might as well try to get some money for all the work i do right? I welcome feedback on this i as they are still works in process. Oh, they have a white boarder around them so if the spacing seems weird, that's why.

2010-05-22T11:08:00.000+12:00

I have not been active on this blog as i have been working on some film projects that have kept me very busy. I also hired out all my lenses for 3 weeks so my camera is currently collecting dust. But here is a quick photo to keep you entertained until i get into the swing of things again.

2010-05-01T14:24:00.001+12:00

I got some help editing this series series taken on my Mini Dianna. I like the mood in this series, i think this may be a good road to head down for future photography... perhaps?

2010-04-25T16:58:00.000+12:00

So, i though i would leave my flash at home and see what the dark looks like.

2010-04-24T10:57:00.000+12:00

I set up my studio against a paper background in a small room at a party and played along.

Just a little experiment. Trying to get some new content into my everyday doco style. Click on picture to enlarge.

2010-03-20T18:15:00.002+13:00

Digging deep into my photo-collection i found some snaps i took on a 'Diana F+' last year and a old Russian stereo-camera called 'sputnik'. Analogue photography is special.

2010-03-20T15:42:00.001+13:00

Sometimes, with the right number of right people, stuff happens that would not otherwise have happened. I'm sure you've been there.

Doha: Consturction City

2010-02-23T20:36:00.008+13:00

The construction in Doha, the largest city in Qatar, seemed to be endless. Its seems to be a town that has almost sprung up over night and has been trying to establish itself as the commerce and cultural center on the Arabian Peninsula, in a similar way to Dubai. Unlike Dubai, Doha is built on a foundation of Oil and even under the recent financial crisis, it is still growing.

Doha is a place that can only be experienced from a distance, it is hard to get close to anything.

Out of hand

2010-02-21T11:27:00.001+13:00

I just turned up, this is what i found.

Hot and Muggy

2010-02-21T11:10:00.002+13:00

My last road trip took me down to a joust where hung out with some vikings for a night, I wanted to take more photos at this event but i always find it hard to bust out my camera when they are trying to keep their surrounding as historically correct as possible. After leaving the joust, i ended up at a wedding where beer cooled you down in the extremely hot sun, and whiskey kept you from going insane at night when it was still hot and muggy. I also so stopped by a river to do some fishing where i left my camera in the mud for a few day (as stated in earlier entries). It was so hot that you could stick coins to anywhere on your body and they would stick to your skin.

Eight hours of turning a pork over the fire. Never seen so much crackling in my life.

The Camera Returns!

2010-02-20T12:12:00.001+13:00

My camera was returned to me a day before i went away on my overseas adventure. Bellow is a picture of my improvised fishing rod made out of a stick and some barbed wire, it is the last picture i took before i miss placed my camera on a muddy river bank where it spent three days waiting for someone to find it. Now that its back i plan to post some images of my last road trip up to Whakatane as well plenty of brand spanking new photos of the Qatar city Doha and the very (in)famous Dubai.

Im going out of town!

2010-02-01T10:09:00.001+13:00

I wont be able to post anyting or the next two weeks. So just hang on to you suspenders and hopefully i will be back with a collection of new cool images.

A Pirate with a fireball!

Back log.

2010-01-28T16:15:00.001+13:00

Ok, So i went out and took a bunch of photos on a road trip, I was sure there would be one or two i wanted to share with you, but i lost my camera. So untill that turns up i will go back into 2009 and post some photos from then. I will start with a competition i did. I collaborated wit a stylist Lucy Luxon and hairdresser Kate Murphy.

Stepping into the future!

2010-01-20T18:53:00.002+13:00

I here are some photos of a new years celebration on a farm somewhere on the north island of New Zealand. It was kinda like a hippie party, without the hippie's.

Something i stumbled across on a journey through the internet. How do you win?

Sick in Shanghai

2010-01-18T18:08:00.001+13:00

I thought while traveling snapping pictures of interesting stuff would be a great idea to take photos of interesting things and details on a 24 hour visit to Shanghai, instead i got the flu and could only handle a 3 hour walk around town, taking pictures was even harder. But you know... i took some tourist snaps before i returned to the hotel and watched Chinese news for 5 hours.

Ducks hanging soaking in the misty air next to some washing.

I have seen this before in Hong Kong, a window from my hotel room into the shower, so you can watch your roommate clean themselves. And on top of this, in the bathroom you could buy a razor, lubricant, his and hers intimate cleaning soap, condoms and condoms and vibrator. Kinda funny or what?
