More Mohr Mannequins

Day 2 of our lovely Easter photo session: With the help of a laser canon, we fixed a series of differently painted mannequin heads to the same position. This way I took pictures to produce a stop-motion-animation showing the range of surface revisions done by Mohr Models.
Another slide animation with a group of mannequins will reveal the enormous variety of mannequins to rent for fashion stores, trade shows, movies, etc.

Making of pictures by my assistant Katrin Schempp and me for foto di matti:

This week we are capturing the key-visuals of leading display mannequin service provider Mohr Models. During a two-day-long photo-session I shoot the key business fields of the company.
Thanks to my assistant Katrin Schempp ( and me ; – ) ) for providing some neat making-of pictures of our studio-shooting:

Owner Jan Wegener and junior art director Paul are preparing the e-shop-mannequin, a Mohr Model innovation for easier online-shop fashion display:

PetiteBox Making Of

matti — Mon, 02 Apr 2012 14:57:03 +0000

Here are some impressions of last week’s people-shooting for the new service PetiteBox: People in this case means cute babies, young mothers and pregnant women. Apart from a father and a “courier”-model I was the only man with a team of roughly 8-10 girls. A tough job!

The photo production took place in the Amano apartments on Rosenthaler Straße, Berlin.

Thanks a lot to Tanja Henning (Hair & Make Up), Katrin (first assistant), Nicole (2nd assistant , Dorina (Mobilé and Styling), Tanné (Styling), Susanne (Art Direction) and all those other ladies behind and in front of the camera!!!

And here is a nice series of making of photos taken by my assistant Katrin Schempp:

This week, we will do a set of people-photos for the launch of Petite-Box: After the success of Glossy Box, BeautyTrend GmbH will start a comparable service for pregnant women and young mothers. I will visualize the service for the press-kit with real target group people in Berlin.

Old school surfing is the theme of this fashion series. I captured the casual street wear from Barcelona’s brand SPRT in the look of the 50′s and 60′s. Though Catalonia is at the rather shallow Mediterrean Sea there are some spots to catch a good wave – even at the urban city beaches of Barcelona. Toni Torrens, owner and designer of the label was one of the first who brought surfing over from California.

Thanks a lot to our model Pol, special assistant Gregor Koall, and our hair & make-up artist Ana Vergara.
