Photography: Loving this £3 cap from H&M

Bought a cap for my son last autumn. It cost me something like £3.
Ridiculous, especially when actually thinking of how many hours he’s spend playing with/wearing that cap. He really loves it.
Thought I’d pay a tribute to the cap. And create a picture for my son to remember the cap by.

Photography: Kid eating icecream

One of my favorite pictures.. Nothing can make a high energy boy aged 3 relax like an icecream. Moments before this picture was taken we’d run, fought and pretended to be playing american football, tackling away on each other. And then suddenly – he just sits there, relaxing, but still dirty and a bit exhausted from all the commotion.
The photo is from Malaga, Spain, October 2010.

Photography: ..you got issues?

Was shooting random shots of my son the other day while waiting for his mother. Suddenly – while posing as a tough guy – he had this expression on his face. It reminded me of Sid Vicious, Johnny Rotten, Sex Pistols and their lazy, crazy “I don’t give a fuck” attitude.
So I decided to alter the photograph into a Sex Pistols inspired “rebelling youth”-poster.

Here’s how it turned out:

The graffiti wall and texts are created in Photoshop.
The photo is given a lot of contrast and then “torn” out using the Quick Selection tool. Some adjustments are made in the Refine Edge dialog box.
The color theme is from Kuler.
Hope you like it.

Thanks to Esben Hindhede for advise on creating this poster
