I just got the most awesome cosplay idea for next year’s Blizzcon. And since there is no way in hell that I am going to dress up as anything, I hope someone else grabs it: Get your Hogger (the truly epic boss from Elwynn Forest outside Stormwind) costume just right and convince 40 friends into [...]
Being the one in charge of documenting all the fun during a friend’s bachelor party actually sounds a bit like a pain in the ass, and you will probably not get to drink a whole lot until you leave the camera somewhere. On the bright side, you have a good excuse handy if the party [...]
My goal above all others this year is already reached: Becoming the official Blizzcon 2009 photographer! Blizzcon is annual fan convention held by Blizzard Entertainment for fans of the company’s games – World of Warcraft, Warcraft 3, StarCraft 2, Diablo 3 etc. – and it is a huge event. I visited the show in October [...]
This month, I finished a pretty interesting assignment: The Danish vocal ensemble Theatre of Voices, whom I have been photographing in the past, performed a Chinese opera written by Liu Sola – The Afterlife of Li Jiantong – in both the Danish Opera and The Barbican Centre in London.

Until a week ago, I was fairly green when it came to the ins and outs of the online photo stock libraries so I decided to sift through all of the major ones and try to decide which one to start using. I want to eventually use a handful of libraries for my photos but [...]
I am constantly annoyed when I view photo contests, read photo magazines etc. All to often, great Photoshop skills try to trick me into thinking that a photo is better than it actually is, and I would argue - very generally - that people today tend to appreciate skillful post-processing more than the actual shot [...]
Recently returned from a trip to the beautiful Galapagos Islands, I can safely say that the place is a photographer’s dream: Wildlife all over, stunning vistas and incredibly interesting landscape. While light at the equator tends to be a bit too harsh for my taste, apart from the wee hours of the morning and late [...]
My blog is finally back online after at least two years of lying dormant. Back then - when everybody needed a blog because everyone else had one - I did not really have a particular goal with it, and therefore it eventually went inactive. You could definitely say that I hit the classic newbie blogger [...]
