Business Portrait - Finn Wichmann Lund

I'm finally returning to my blog after a while - nearly 6 month. There are several reasons for this, but let's not focus on trivia around securing an income - let's focus on the exiting process of creating portraits.

Today I had the pleasure of photographing my good friend Finn Wichmann Lund, as he needed a straight forward business portrait for Linkedin and other "official" web pages / documents.

I call this "Quick Portrait" as the set-up is really fast. I use two Nikon SB-910 attached to a Lastolite Professional A2412 Triflash bracket mounted on a Manfrotto 5001B Tripod. As a diffusor I use a standard shoot through white umbrella. On each Nikon SB-910 speedlight I attach a PocketWizard Flex TT5. On my Nikon D800 with AF-S 24-70mm f/2.8 I mount a PocketWizard MiniTT1 and an AC3. To reflect some light back I use a Silver California Sunbouncer. The camera is in Aperture priority mode, ISO 100, f/7.1. I´m shooting against a white wall. The RAW files is then post processed in Lightroom 5.

I normally shoot around 25-30 photos and select 5-10 for the client. The total time including set-up, photo shoot and post processing is app. 2 hours (excluding transportation). This is ideal for business people, who can't allot more than 30 minutes for a shoot. And all offices has a white wall.

Here are a couple more photos from todays shoot.

Give me a call (+4540528090) if you live in Denmark and need a "Quick Portrait" for your official profile.

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.
