NEW ZEALAND

We had beautiful warm weather, swimming in the river and having a great time in the beer garden in the evening. And then we went to New Zealand straight into winter. ;) just kidding, of course it was a real treat to do this kind of trip. Due to the weather we were driving around a lot in this beautiful country. I wish we'd had more time to enjoy the scenery, but hey it's a work trip. The photos won't come out until next year, here're just a few travel snapshots.

FELIX NEUREUTHER FOR AIRWAVES

Hatte das große Vergnügen wieder einmal Skirennläufer Felix Neureuther zu fotografieren. Diesmal für seinen Sponsor Airwaves.

Shooting Outdoor Sports

Deutscher Text weiter unten...

I was shooting for a great new client recently, Ortovox - a company for mountain sports equipment. They're very dedicated to high quality products and R&D. So the several days shooting on location naturally took place in authentic environments. That meant serious hiking, iced up photo equipment, ropes, crevasses and so on.

You'll see the results during the winter 2010/11 in print advertising, catalogs and in store merch. Check out my work-blog to see a couple of pages of the catalog or check my website for some images in my new "Outdoor" category.
Thanks to everyone at Ortovox!

Ski Freeriding

Alpine Tour

Für den Bergsport-Equipment Hersteller Ortovox habe ich verschiedene Image Photos produziert, die für Katalog, POS Material und Print-Anzeigen eingesetzt werden. Die Mitarbeiter sind alle beigeisterte Sportler und testen die Produkte selbst. So war auch der Wunsch, dass die verschiedenen Shoots unter realistischen Bedingungen stattfinden. Das hieß stundenlanges Aufsteigen, eisüberzogene Fotoausrüstung, anseilen, Gletscherspalten und so weiter.
Die Fotos sind im kommenden Winter 2010/11 im Katalog, Handel und Anzeigen zu sehen. Einen Vorgeschmack mit ein paar Seiten des Katalogs gibt es auf meinem Work-Blog und auf meiner Webseite sind einige Fotos aus den Shoots in der neuen Kategorie "Outdoor" zu sehen.
