Love contacted me when he needed portraits for business and social media.
I suggested that we shoot at Hotel Rival, like the environment around Mariatorget.
We went for a walk, talked about things we like in life. Portrait photography is a favorite and I have sometimes thought / felt that you actually photograph yourself.
Susan Sontag, On photography
“Your photography is a record of your living, for anyone who really sees. You may see and be affected by other people´s ways, you may even use them to find your own, but you will eventually have to free yourself of them. That is what Nietzsche meant when he said, “I have just read Schopenhauer, now I have to get rid of him.” He knew how insidious other peoples ways could be, particularly those which have the forcefulness of profound experience, if you let them get between you and your own vision.
-Paul Strand
