7 International Loupe Awards 2011

Fredrik — Wed, 16 Nov 2011 21:20:46 +0000

Photographers from over 90 countries entered this years prestigious International Loupe Awards , so It felt great to take home 7 Awards! Last year I got a Loupe award for a heli wedding in Queenstown and i’m proud to say that I scored high with my weddings again, but this year I also won awards for my commercial work. Here are two of my favorites. The first commercial/fashion award is of local model Charlotte Gardiner with makeup by the very talented Gena Bagley. The Second shot “The running girl” was for a worldwide campaign for a client of ad agency Interbrand. Feels good to get recognition for all the hard work and big thanks to all my clients – weddings couples and corporates!

Spending a day with Heather Waraksa

Fredrik — Mon, 09 May 2011 04:07:09 +0000

As a photographer I take all opportunities I can to meet with other top photographers. It doesn’t matter how good you are, you never stop learning.

Heather Waraksa, from Brooklyn NY, is one of the top 10 wedding photographer in the world and is famous for her cinematic and fashion inspired images. She was recently in New Zealand and I spent a whole day with her last week. I got lots of new ideas and concepts to experience with couples for the next coming season.

The night ended in true NY style with cocktails in the company of great photographers.

It has been an amazing year, meeting 3 of the top 10 wedding photographers in the world was something i never thought would happen. David Beckstead with his distinct style, Jerry Ghionis who makes every wedding glamourous and rock’n roll and Heather’s soft, beautiful and romantic images.

Here are a few images taken last week, inspired by Heather Waraksa’s work

6 Wedding Awards in Canon Creative Asia Awards

Fredrik — Mon, 20 Dec 2010 21:23:50 +0000

Christmas has come early! I have just found out that I’ve won 6 Wedding Awards in the Canon Creative Asia Awards!!! It’s such an amazing feeling for me and for the couples involved. I always try to push the boundaries of wedding photography and always work on new ideas and ways to push my photography further.

I have really been working hard this last year and spending time with Jerry Ghionis and David Beckstead, two of the worlds top 10 wedding photographers has definitely helped. They have given me lots of new ideas and inspiration, but most importantly reinforcing the fact that photography is very personal and you shoot as you are as a person.

Thanks again to all my couples over the last year and thank you to all my upcoming couples who have chosen to have me as a part of your wedding day.

2011 is going to be another great year - I can’t wait:)

Another NZ Weddings Magazine feature

Fredrik — Mon, 04 Oct 2010 22:19:35 +0000

It’s always great to see you images in magazines, it doesn’t matter that I have had countless images published it is still a buzz to flip through a magazine and see my images. This last feature makes me one of the most published wedding photographers on the South Island in the last couple of years.

The double page spread in New Zealand Wedding magazine is from Casey and Glen’s wedding here in Wanaka earlier this year and was one of my favourites. I also won an Iris Award for an image of Casey taken just before the rain hit us and we had to get back in the helicopter.

Here is a link to the post of the wedding
