    Shutter

    Sometimes, the more simple is the harder. This shoot was more difficult than I expected before starting the session.

    This shutter isn’t only a stock picture, but the sketch for my next tattoo.

    Some Malta shoots

    Some shoots from the Malta sessions.

    There are some histories about bizarre loves and impossible relations.

    Mr. Theyedropper asked me for my 5 favourite albums. I don’t like memes butit’s a pleasure for me to-finally-answer his question. Then, in the future, I will post the song I’m listening while I’m writing a post.

    Song: Perfect lovesong (The Divine Comedy)

    Jean-Joseph Renucci. Portrait

    After a lot of days in Malta (working of course!!!!! ;)), I’m back.

    Before showing the Malta pictures with models (not as good -the pictures-as I wanted), I’m going to start the maltese days with a portrait of the corsican photographer Jean Joseph Renucci “Pollux”. It’s a very mediterranean shoot with Godard reminiscences, I know, but it has been a really crazy week and I think it’s very apropiated!

    Aloe soap

    A still life photo before going to Malta (in 6 hours) to take some photos and enjoy the island for a week.

    soap-jvcanto.jpg

    The soap is for cleaning my guilty conscience hehe.

    I will post some work and personal photos when return.

    Chopsticks

    A heap of wood and bamboo chopsticks in a soft toned look. I had this image in my mind for some months and I photographied it last week. I wanted to create a different image of chopsticks playing with a really narrow deep of field.

    One year

    I’m an absolut disaster. This month (I’m almost late for one day…) is the first birthday of the blog!!! I started it in May 2007. Now he’s learning to walk by himself.

    oneyear-jvcanto.jpg

    To celebrate it, I prepared a recopilation my favourite photos I have made in the first year of the blog. I realise that I have done more work than I thought!!!!

    Friends

    This is an image of a session I did yesterday in Barcelona for stock. The theme is about two couples of friends in funny mood. In this particular image, the second couple was less happy ;)

    friends-jvcanto.jpg

    The models are Ferran Font, Àfrica Lis, Lluís Niubò and Alexandra Camarasa.

    In this session I tested the new Canon EOS 1Ds MarkIII (this photo is shooted with it) thanks to the photographer and friend Xavier Arnau.
