episode 33: Clipskills Teil 2


TEIL 2 

Ich heiße Fabian und bin Fotograf aus dem Bielefelder Westen.

Nach einigen Umwegen über Musikvideos, Langzeitbelichtungen und Landschaftsfotografien fand ich meinen kreativen Heimathafen in der experimentellen Portraitfotografie: Die endlosen Kombinationen aus Lichtern, Farben und Gesichtern inspirieren mich bei jedem Shooting aufs Neue. 

Den besonderen Look erhalten meine Bilder durch meinen einzigartigen Stil der Nachbearbeitung, der sich in über 15 Jahren Erfahrung in der Bildbearbeitung und Retusche entwickelt hat. Auch durch mein Masterstudium der Medienwissenschaft (M.Sc.) verfüge ich über ein breites und fundiertes Wissen rund um die digitale Fotografie und Bildverarbeitung.

Meine Shootings sind wie Spielen im Sandkasten: Kreativ und unkompliziert. Meine Fotografien sind irgendwo zwischen Ästhetik und Emotion, Perfektion und Provokation.

 

ClipSkills. Normal gibt's wo anders.

How long have you been in photography? As many others I'm a late starter and have begun my path to professional photography in summer 2015.   2. what made you choose photography I got a Panasonic Lumix G5 as a birthday present from my family and friends. I've got a lot of contacts to the local music scene, so I started to produce some simple musicvideos - and the people liked them. At that time, I already got more then 15 years experience with Adobe Software - especially Photoshop, but also Premiere Pro. Because of this, I had an easy start editing my productions. But I needed my footage to have a better quality, so I started to watch endless hours of YouTube-tutorials to understand the technical side of videography - and photography. Getting more and more experienced, I often enjoyed taking photos as well during the shoots. Today, I'm 99% photographer and don't produce videos anymore.   3. Why do you like portrait style? As all humans, I love to look at faces. Every face is unique and comes with endless varieties of expressions. What I love about portraits, is the ability to get very intimate with the captured persons: Normally, you would have to stand nose to nose to see all those little details of an expression and textures. With an >85mm lens f.e. you can simulate that closeness and intimacy without warping the subject too much. People love that - and so do I.   4.How do you describe your style? Bold, strong and heavy. Full of vibrance and contrast. Intimate and close. Also: Sharp hahaha   5. How do you choose your subjects & ideas? Photography is like a giant sandbox to me - and I play a lot in it. I love to play with different emotions and always try to create something new. Most stuff happens spontaneous  - but I have a big moodboard in form of a instagram-bookmark-collection which I use as an inspiration and a reminder, of what I want to try out myself sometime.   6. How do you feel about connecting with other models? Is it easy and comfortable? Since 2017 I'm running my own photography business, so I'm generally more interested in getting new customers - but sometimes I meet a person I really need to do a shooting with. I don't have any problems speaking to strangers and most times, I don't have anything to loose when I approach models. Worst case is, they aren't interested in a shooting. I often get messages via instagram as well from people who would like to have a shooting with me.    7. what other kinds of photography style you would like to try? I started my photography game with creating long exposures and I still love it today. With a long exposure you're able to catch a picture, impossible to see with the human eye. That's why it fascinates me everytime I see it.   8. What is the end goal for you?? I really would like to expose my work in a well known gallery once in my life.     9. What equipment do you use, and which one is ur fav lens? I use the Panasonic Lumix DC-GH5 all the time. It's a powerful workhouse and never disappoints. I know, it's mainly a video cam, but so far, I'm pretty satisfied with it's 20 MP for stills. As a portrait photographer, I use the GH5 together with the Leica Nocticron 42.5mm f1.2 prime lens. Because of the M4/3 sensor, it's technically a 85mm lens and I'm deeply in love with it's sharpness and bokeh. In special occasions, I sometimes use my 25mm prime f1.4 (≙50mm FF) or 12-60mm f2.8-4.0 (≙24-120mm FF) zoom to get a wider view or even closer to the subject. Probably I will switch to the new Panasonic S1 because of it's full frame sensor in some years.   ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
