… since the last blog post. Everything changed, like literally – my life, my career, my face and many aspects of my personality. It is just insane to look back and just realize how much of a different person I am. I am still unable to recognize myself in the mirror, which is a bit… Continue reading Oh, look, 3 years have passed…

An issue about Style
I was browsing one of the photography Reddits today and I have noticed a lot of topics about personal style. People are asking other people if their style is clearly visible or how do you get to have a style and such. I did a lot of reflecting in the past on what style is… Continue reading An issue about Style
Light is everything
There is a bit of common belief that processing can change everything. And there is some truth to it, if you think about composites and actually creating photos in Photoshop, as oppose to show what the camera seen, filtered by your own vision. When you take a photo, even if you do not want to slice… Continue reading Light is everything
Working for “free”
I have been thinking about writing an actual post about this for quite a while because I really needed to feel like I am clear about the subject. I also wanted to see if whatever action I took had an actual result. The trigger for writing it right now was a very interesting offer I got… Continue reading Working for “free”
Let’s talk with no reason!
GDC was great, but there is one thing that really bothered me – It was unfashionable there to meet people for no reason. I remember opening a discussion like this at a party “Hi I am Sebastian and sometimes I am a photographer. I just wanted to tell you that I have noticed you… Continue reading Let’s talk with no reason!
Paving the commercial way
Well, 5 months ago, after my last post on this blog, my great quest towards improving my photography took flight. Suddenly, after the Sweden Game Conference, apparently I reached a “hype bump”. Many people have starting thinking about me as a photographer fit for their needs. Because, truth be told, I am the only photographer… Continue reading Paving the commercial way
Surprise sunset
When we were driving back to Sweden, from Germany, just before Puttgarden, this amazing sunset happened over the Krummsteert-Sulsdorfer Wiek. I quickly took a photo over Marcus who had to drive in an awkward position. The photo is the one above. I was sure that it was just a snapshot and that I am going to… Continue reading Surprise sunset
Ibiza – In & Beyond the Party Vibe
“I’m drifting off to some far away, surreal land as I gaze towards the creamy ends of the gentle Mediterranean waves washing the golden shores of Santa Eulalia’s main beach. I’m free and I feel extraordinarily beautiful, as a pulse beating after the rhythm of the sea pushes my thoughts into a deep creative state… Continue reading Ibiza – In & Beyond the Party Vibe
Tamron 24-70mm f/2.8 – Imperfect Love
24-70mm f/2.8 is a particular set of numbers that you want packed in one lenses on you camera. It is the absolute base of any type of photography. No wonder Nikon puts such a high price on it. At least in my experience, this range is what I use the most. Unfortunately, you don’t have… Continue reading Tamron 24-70mm f/2.8 – Imperfect Love
Love for Nature
Recently somebody asked me if I am specialized in landscape photography. I don’t consider myself specialized in anything, not now and not for the following 10 years or so. Besides, I want to explore all aspects of photography from an artistic perspective. If I would talk about my preferences right now, I do prefer some… Continue reading Love for Nature
Where the “10 tips” stop and the art begins
I often read news about “self-taught” photographers showing their amazing work and how cool is that. I never really understood why is such a big fuss about being self-taught, but I am starting to get it. I have learn most of the photography I know from Internet – from blogs, tutorials, forums and others. Took me 2 years to… Continue reading Where the “10 tips” stop and the art begins
My first film!
At a certain point in my existence I read that you are not a photographer enough until you have used a film camera. Of course, I do not really took it seriously but the whole idea did raise my curiosity quite a bit. I did shot on film once, but I was really young, 12 years… Continue reading My first film!
Don’t think about making art…
I have been reflecting lately at what I am doing with my photography. Almost every day I shot a certain number of pictures and throw them away like garbage. Only a few survive and they are all in accordance with my assessment of being good or bad. Unfortunately, I have observed that I am mostly doing… Continue reading Don’t think about making art…
On the way to create my way
I know I like photography so very much that I kind of made a little obsession about it. Not big enough to interfere with my current job, because yes, I have one and it is great, but big enough to make me seriously thinking about becoming a “real” professional. I have noticed that beside nature, I like taking photos… Continue reading On the way to create my way
A Midsummer Dream
I’ve heard people talking about their bad past life experiences with a sense of loss, like there is nothing left to do, since you cannot alter the past. Something happened and “I feel damaged“, thus, unable to recover completely ever. It is strange how this things works because I never heard anyone saying “I was so happy, I will never be able… Continue reading A Midsummer Dream
