News and Things

First of all, sorry for being off the whole Summer. I just needed a break of constant photography and focused on reading and thinking about photography especially as art. There is now this larger body of work I'm developing slowly. It will have stills but also video where the main focus is on sounds and spoken stories. If anyone out there is interested in discussing sounds, I'd be pleased.

Some real photography I did at the beginning of the Summer. First of all the shoot with the most wonderful MUKA VA -team.

More of MUKA VA / 08/2011

MUKA VA's Cotton House, a Suomi-Filmi inspired collection which partially sports a news print fabric that contains news about the Finnish film industry. Photos were inspired by Suomi-Filmi and Film Noir as well.

MUKA VA / 07/2011

In July I had an awesome photoshoot with the designers of MUKA VA, whom I've known for several years. Mukava means something between nice and comfortable which describes just perfectly both, the designers and their clothes.

These two were made into postcards. Other shots follow!

Hey - Ban Glasses!

I've found out there is a genre of Sun-glass -accidents:
1. Leaving glasses on for too long and getting panda-tans or nose-burns
2. Mislaying of glasses that causes either a headache or an economical loss, or both
3. Breakage of glasses by sitting on them, walking on them or running over them by a car or a lorry
4. Not-being-able-to-see-anything-because-the-shopping-mall-or-the-buss-or-the-metro-tunnel-is-not-as-bright-as-the-outside-world

Move Fast and Break Things / 05/2011

Most resent images, first, second and fourth of those which most likely are not to be published. Too late or too early, not focused, or focused on wrong things. There are more reasonable ones to put in a portfolio but I like these better. Suitable for a sketchbook.

Frankly, the purpose of these is to showcase the latest sewings.
