The actor Lluís Niubò in front of the mirror experimenting the other side.

And now an extra bonus. After the session, my friend and photographer Marc Vicente entered in my studio and decided that the model and me needed a portrait together. This is the result:

International Amnesty Spain catalogue

Joan Vicent — Sun, 21 Sep 2008 19:43:23 +0000

Just finished this work for International Amnesty. The pictures are for the International Amnesty Spain catalogue 2008/2009.

They wanted real people and not models (well, you can see Lluís Niubò, but he is not a model but an actor and he’s more or less real people). I made some dyptics and a tryptic playing with the individual pictures and with the relation between them.

All the shots are made with a Canon Eos1ds MarkIII, a 50mm lens and Bowens flash units.

Song: Paradisu Zinema (Joxe Ripiau)

Josep Ardiaca. Portrait.

Joan Vicent — Thu, 18 Sep 2008 22:22:07 +0000

Josep Ardiaca is an adventurer. Also, he’s a photographer. One day he gone to the doctor and the doctor ordered him to left the camera at home some days (he ALWAYS has a giant lowepro bag at his back and a big tripod with him, always, really, always…).

He discovered the photography in Brazil, when a postal card photographer asked him if he wanted to make some money as assistant. Now he’s the photographer and shots landscapes for postal cards, books, magazines, institutions and corporations and a lot of pictures of buildings and spaces for architects and builders. He has a company named Amaneceres fotográficos and he works more than the doctor wants.

Also, he’s my friend.

Song: Thousands are sailing (The Pogues).

Bulldog. Portrait.

Joan Vicent — Thu, 18 Sep 2008 06:33:34 +0000

This is a serie of portraits for stock with a great model. Her name is Lambretta and she’s a wonderful and extreme patient english bulldog.

Song: The Ugly One (King Stitt).

The Mirror. A Serie. I

Joan Vicent — Tue, 16 Sep 2008 08:42:22 +0000

Today I start a portrait series called “The Mirror”. The people that appears in this serie is part of my life and I decided that this is a good moment to portray all my people.

All the photos are taken with a similar light scheme and the focus is only in the eyes, playing with a very narrow deep of field.

Hope you like it. I’ll post more portraits in the next days. Sorry for the low activity in the forum these days, but I’m very busy with the photos of the International Amnesty Spain catalogue.
