About Me

I just joined this site, and think most of my BB-codes should be working now.
But I haven't yet found an easy way to arrange all my uploads,
so for now, this will remain a complete mess ;-)
he, he...

 
In September 2009 I was awarded the titel "Artist of the Month"

Hi there ! - my name is Marco.

0

I am an internationally published and VAT-registred Photographer,
based in Copenhagen (Denmark), but regulary work all over Europe.

 
In 2010 I'll be visiting friends and models across the US
to add "new blood" and more location work to my portfolio.
I am also planing a UK tour, ultimo 2009 / primo 2010.
 


I have been shooting since the mid 70s, and working professionally in
the Danish media industry (radio/TV/magazines) since the early 80s...

My first publication - which was also my first international assignment
as a photographer - was back in 1985, shooting and reporting from the
DIFA Exhibition in Essen (Germany).

Since then, I have worked for The Voice, Uptown, Radio Hoersholm,
FilmNet (2 x live commentary from 'Miss World' in Sun City, South Africa),
Radio2, POPFM, Radio100FM, Danmarks Radio ('Go' Morgen P3'), Kanal2,
TV2/Danmark (live continuity), TV3/TV1000/Viasat (London), TV/Danmark,
Fogtdals Blade, Bonnier Publications, and too many others to list here...

I am a personal member of The Society of Danish Photography (SDF),
which is the Danish wing of
Federation Internationale De L’Art Photographique (FIAP).

My prime genres have been Pin-Up and FetishFashion,
including Burlesque, FemmeFatale and DIVA, but I'm now crossing over
to do more "classic" hi-end Glamour and Beauty.

I don't shoot weddings, pregnant women, animals or babies (!)
and prefere to work with people who have a good sense of humor ;-)

In the summer of 2008 we began shooting on Hasselblads
new and exciting H3DII/31 mediumformat digital platform.
It's heavy, ugly (!), slow, and the files are pretty awesome.
But to be QUITE honest, I'd rather shot with LEAFs
rotable sensor !

 
If you - like me - fancy modern day technology,
then take a sneak-peek here, to see "The House of Tomorrow":

I will NEVER stop shooting on film ! My favorite format being 6x7,
and if handheld is not required; 6x8.
