Photoshoot in the studio with J.B., Nail & DNA.
I hardly ever use the white background so it was quite nice. We did some dark ones, too.
But sometimes (read always) i really wish that there were a bit more space in the studio.
Nifelheim is the shit!! A few of the coolest and probably the most fun hours I will ever spend in the studio.
Lots and lots of gear, including a small coffin, a homemade spiderweb maker (a BRILLIANT invention by Hellbutcher!!) a black plastic bag containing 3 rotten goatheads and all that heavy, spiky stuff the band wear at concerts. Wonder what can be worst…a couple of hours on stage or half a day in a photostudio with all that weight. I´m still very proud of my work that day…and of course for them choosing me as their photographer. They actually booked med almost a year in advance to make sure I´d be available :D
Photoshoot with Spazmosity, a blackmetal band from Stockholm. There were blood…lots of it EVERYWHERE!
We tried to keep it clean on the studio floor in the beginning, but after a couple of hours we had to give up. Simply too much of the stuff…Luckily it was quite easy to clean the floors when we were finished. And the guys did their part, of course. Fun day;)

Seemed like everybody from Stockholm were at Sweden Rock Festival, not so crowded at Anchor as it used to be…Met some fun people, tho:)The bands for the evening: Godhate and Mindslip. Pics in solid Anchor quality (I think I will buy me one of these)
Viperia was the other band besides Vision I voted for…I felt right at home…thrash and absolutely no lights;) Great gig!!I think they won something, too? “Best” something….
They were good and absolutely the most good looking…but they didn..t win :(Some bore named winston (?? or something…) did.
I voted – of course – for Vision!! And some deathband because you had to vote for 2 bands minimum.
Went to do some photojob for SRM. 15 000 people at Gröna Lund, the local amusement park this thursday evening. I arrived just in time for Engel…And yeah…It was really an nice evening. According to most of the people who were there.
Releaseparty for the latest from Grave – Dominion VIII. Yet an wonderful evening with Peter, Sophie and great bands. And a couple of beers (thanks Peter;))
Live: Mr. Death & Grave DJ..s: Mia HellBe & Fred Estby (ex-Dismember)Absolutely spandex-free!! Lots of people i know & love…Came home late…Or early…?
It depends how you look at it. Anyway I had to get up & work at 7.
