Model releases
Being a model photographer I use model releases in connection with a lot of shoots. I have one for adults and one for minors. If you'd like to use them, or be inspired to make your own, you can find my model releases here: https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0BwPAdh7ltSxXU1NaM2ZfVG5zWDg&usp=sharing

Hmmm - can't figure out how to upload to a specific album and post the image at the same time as you could before. Anyone?

I find it interesting what Google suggests to be interesting with their new highlights tool

Argh - I expected this really annoying problem to be solved in the update. But no :-(

Sunday cleanup. Goodbye Pinterest, goodbye 500px.
Next week: Goodbye Smugmug, goodbye Vimeo.

I don't do many cutouts in Photoshop. Actually I rarely do anything but cosmetic retouching. But I love to be able to, so now and then I grab an old scrapped photo and try to get better (or at least avoid forgetting what I already know). Like changing a bad background with something a little less bad - without loosing the hair (besides my own...)

After being occupied with portraits for the last two months I'm now going back into modelling mode. 30 sessions booked today. This summer I'll focus on outdoor model photos in the early morning and beautiful summer nights. Really looking forward to it.

After a confirmation in church it has turned into a common tradition (here in Denmark at least) that the young people get picked up in limousines, racing cars, cool motorcycles or veteran cars. Not this cool fellow here - he wasn't even picked up. He drove this old tractor himself - and it's actually his own. I like kids that don't flow with the stream. Way to go!

How do you work with colours?
I've been working with EIZO monitors for years because of their ability to show a larger part of the colour spectrum than average monitors. Out of the box they tend to be slightly more saturated and red than standard monitors, but when using a colour profile, like the one I make with my Spyder 3 Elite calibration tool, they are perfect. As with white balance I consider it essential to have an accurate starting point, where everything is as close to "absolute" as can be achieved. Especially when I need to process images for printing it's far easier this way to get the printed results that I want.

But most of my images are viewed on screen. Probably something close to 99,99% of all views. And I don't even print that many images myself anymore - they are often just shipped digitally to printing shops, but luckily may favorite printing... more »

Meet Mr. Light. Never complains, doesn't ask for a raise, never calls in sick and works all day long without any breaks. The perfect assistant for light adjustment.

One of today's confirmation portraits. Again using one of my favourite barns as the location because of the amazing light and background that can be found there.

Confirmation jump. A funny moment at my son's confirmation party today. If you want to make sure that a party isn't boring, just invite some of your kid's classmates. That'll cheer up even a funeral.

You know the kind of days where the light changes from bright sunshine to overcast - 10 times within 5 minutes? Sure glad I brought my VAHL (Voice Activated Human Lightstand) yesterday...

Well - zero points for artistic value, but not all confirmation portraits have to be oldschool. And by the way - I don't think his parents actually need any more photos of him ;-)

One more shot from today's confirmation shoots.

Spring isn't really here yet, so everything is still brown and grey outside. Trying a more retro urban look for some of today's confirmation portraits.

Selling stock footage
I'm considering to invest more time (and money) in the sale of stock footage. Unfortunately Photoshelter (that I use for my stock photo sales) doesn't support selling video. I'm looking at different options for an alternate site for stock video. Any recommandations beside SmugMug?

Very happy that the season for outdoor portraits has started again. So much work to be done the next many months.
