Karina Iversen - Day 76


Another portrait assignment was on the agenda today.

A profile photo for various social networks shouldn't just be a snapshot done with an mobile camera, but a portrait that encapsulates a person's personality. My friend Karina Iversen asked me if we could make a personal and strong portrait photo for her LinkedIn profile.

Karina thinks a professional profile photo is important - and it is! When we all visit a LinkedIn, Facebook, Google+ or Twitter page of a person, we look at the profile photo to get a first impression. If we like what we see then we definitely look for more information about this person. If the profile photo fails to make an impression, then we might move on without looking at the persons wall, stream, tweets or what ever it is called.

For a photoshoot like this I normally end up with 200 photos from which the client can choose 5-10 for further processing. Now Karina hasn't had a chance to select her 5-10 photos yet, but I took the liberty to select one my self that I think encapsulates Karina's personality. Let us hope she likes it :-)

By the way - the price for a photo session that will give you 5-10 profile photos in color, black & white or both delivered as digital files, is 500 DKK + VAT.

Debatindlæg omkring "det globale marked", entreprenørskab og innovationslysten

Fra velfærd til velstand - kravet er et erhvervsklima, der fremmer entreprenørskab og innovationslysten Globalisering er et vidt begreb. Det viser mange af de artikler der er skrevet omkring dette emne det seneste år. Jeg undres dog over den ofte populistiske tilgang der gennemsyrer mange artikler. Fænomenet kan dog forklares. Globalisering er så vidt et begreb, at konsekvenserne af globaliseringen skal belyses snævert. Det er derfor på tide at globaliseringsdebatten bliver mere kvalificeret og nuanceret. Hvor ofte har vi ikke læst, at ”globaliseringen kræver at vi tør tænke nyt”, at vi skal ”vinde det globale kapløb på viden, kreativitet og godt købmandskab” og at mange danske virksomheder ”ikke ved hvordan man kommer fra overskrifter til en konkret og fremadrettet strategi”? I den forbindelse er det på sin plads at definere ordet strategi. Jeg refererer til Berlingske Nyhedsmagasin nr. 28, der i deres artikel ”I har misforstået hvad strategi er” citerer professor Michael Porter...

Press photographer has to face a lot of moral issues

Every year we hear about press photographers being killed while trying to capture a decisive photo and document the truth. They also have to face a bunch of moral issues while being close to death and people in need of help. In my opinion it is vital to capture a photo that can influence decisions on a large scale. But when faced with the choice of either keep taking pictures or trying to change the course of a situation by personal interaction (and maybe risk your own life), I can only imaging the moral issues a press photographer must deal with in a few decisive seconds.
