pretty much inspired by his personality

but also the length of his hair I would never grow myself... I really kept him in my mind and so wanted through my lens.
shirt off, of course! Timothy Dale Hollinshead portrayed in my new in-house-studio after a fruitful conversation and some bubbles we had ... we moved into the color and flash.
Enjoy my thoughtful capture of Dale :)

4th photograph from the series that is totally dedicated to women





Very much inspired by the subject I aimed to portrait women in most realistic but also honest way. Not only because I am a woman myself, it is also and mostly due to fact that I find women simply fascinating. In my reality driven by curiosity I would be the one sitting in the corner staring, drawing, making notes and taking snaps. I would also ask thousand questions and analyze my observations with my wife later over a cup of coffee. Women are incredibly strong, powerful, creative, determined and challenging. I found it just right to dedicate my time, research, vision and an eye to produce photographs that were taken to gently express my thoughts.
Many thanks to all talents involved. Loved the time we all spent on that unfinished yet series.

John is a painter and is just preparing himself for a big show where two of his large paintings will go on display in one of Museums. He is the kind of guy I could speak for long hours to. Happy Birthday next month!
First shoot this year, you will now bring me luck <3
