I kite buddy of mine from Norway, Jørgen, has been sailing around the Caribbean for 16 months. This Easter I took time of from work and visited Jørgen on his sailboat “Morning Star”. With wind not on my side, I had almost no kiting at all during my trip. Sad, since we visited some very nice kitesurfing spots in the Caribbean sea. Anyway, we had fun sailing and motoring our way from St. Martin in the east, all the way to Puerto Rico in the west.
The Nordic World Championships in Holmenkollen Oslo Norway 2011 are over. I`ve been lucky to be a apart of this event up close, taking pictures for skiforeningen.no. It has been a great event, and a good experience for me as a photographer. These are my pick outs:

My first fashion photography shoot. The model, Mai-Linn is a new model for Team Models here i Oslo and needed new photos to her portfolio. I used 2 strobes to create the white background and the “wrapping” around Mai-Linns face and neck, one strobe front up above and a reflector in chest height eliminating most of the shadows under her chin. Apart from a minor “hair-job”, this is more or less straight out the camera.
