About Me



I do NOT want to listen to your music, so bands, please bugger off.

Prints for sale as well.



I specialise in concept and artsy model photography. As I am endlessly fascinated by endless imagination, I am not interested in reality as anything more than a base for my work. I want to create film still-like images that are not portraying reality as we see it, but that one still will believe in and think of as reality, no matter how absurd it looks. I am inspired by paintings, literature, films, poetry and propaganda. I am interested in the contrast between what it actually is and what it looks like.

I always look for new models to work with. Right now I'm especially looking for French models to work with, as well as good indoor and outdoor locations.

Je parle francais aussi, n'hésitez pas à me contacter!

My Interests

Photography, film, art, and twists in these; printing; British accents and especially the sophisticated, educated ones, The UK and its history (yeah, am an anglophile), French language, culture and history, clothing and its significance in society. Going to exhibitions, museums or the cinema. Literature and poetry, in-depth analysis, irony and sarcasmnot only as tools of power but as a mirror of another's way of thinking. Propaganda and its ways of argumentation. Women's history. The different female social roles, their birth, female sexuality and how these are depicted in art and literature. The concepts of the "bad" woman, the witch, the femme fatale. Immorality. Fervent discussions. The concept and the unsteady nature of right and wrong. Puns. Defining and restricting and thinking the opposite. Long walks.

I'd like to meet:

People with visions. (Models, photographers, designers, artists, thinkers etc.) I highly appreciate ambition and intelligence.


Heroes:

Paul Arden.
