Shooting myself in a stranger’s house, no one else present, feels like having a secret.
My series ‘A house is not a home’ (self-portraits in strangers’ houses) continues.

Nailed it, cut another hedge. I am done.

1-2-3…..10! Ready or not, there you come.

Don’t we all know those famous fashion photographers like Guy Bourdin, Helmut Newton, Steven Meisel etcetera? Well, I am not famous (yet 😉 ) but I do fashion photography in my own unique way: self-portraits.
