Thief

Trying to balance light inside and outside. I call it, Thief.. Haha

Less Creative

The words, the thoughts. It doesn´t really matter. Sometimes creativity is just. Out there. You need to catch it. Lately, my creativity hasn´t been what I´ve wanted it to be. I want to create. Create something. That you haven´t seen before, in something you probably have seen before. I guess it complicated. But then again, its just my thoughts. My words. The words.

Listening to The White Stripes - My Doorbell, I write these words. I´ve been thinking about the doorbell, when they´re gonna ring it. Geese, I do.

Creativity is not knocking on my door at the moment. As I write these words.

How can you create, by just using your mind. Oh well. Back to work for me,

Im just leaving this for discussion...

Kay Berg

I did a portrait of Kay Berg, my teacher and Hasselblad Master, today.

Ideas and pre-work was done by Celine, Juni, Ida and me. All post-work is me...

Martin,

Portrait of my cousin, Martin.

His really sweet girlfriend, Iselin, helped out. Thank you both! ...

Hangover

So, yes, its Sunday. I gotta say, as I probably have said before - Sundays are my least favorite day of the week. You are hungover, bored, sick, and its the day where you have to do all the things you have delayed the whole week. I hate Sundays.

But, this sunday, I have been finishing of some pictures I took with Amanda

I gotta thank Tone Elde for helping out with styling and makeup, I cant believe

how I do shoots without her! :)

Hm I dunno what to say anymore. So many things are happening to me right now I am doing quite great, except the fact that I managed to loose my license due to speeding.

Im shooting the next four days for school projects, trying to concentrate all my creativity and create what can possibly be the best.

Also I have a model shoot on sunday, with someone more talented than just my pretty girl friends, and I had a girl contacting me through Facebook wanting to do some TFP work, which I am open for anytime! So awesome!

Ehm I´m actually also working for Design Agency Armed right now. Which is newly launched. Check it out at www.armed.nu, due to economical crisis all over the world, and the fact that the "agency" is at a starting point they will offer really cheap designs so CHECK IT OUT.

I also finally got to upload my website www.chrisaadland.com and Im quite happy. Still doing some constructing though Enjoy it.

And last , but not least I got in touch with Thale of www.menthale.no, cause I love her style and vintage clothing (due to the fact that I HATE outfit-blogs), so I figured I wanted to photograph her and her concept Fudge Store.

Well, I need to sleep now. Eventhough, Yes Sleep is overrated

Christmas wishes

Ehm, okay, so first I have my birthday coming up. All I wishes for is money (lol) so that I might be able to buy even better camera accessories.! Geese, yeah, I am a nerd

Anyways. And there is Christmas coming up and my mum and dad wanted me to make a list, for what I want this Christmas. And that is so hard. Today EVERYTHING costs a fortune, and I mean, you cant really wish for stuff that are gonna cost 1000$ !! , but what else is there that is cheap these days ?  Socks? Or maybe an orange wrapped in Christmas paper? I mean.. Its the thought that counts? Yeah right. Like you wouldnt get disappointed if  you got a damn orange.

So what do you want for Christmas?

As of right now I have been searching on www.bhphotovideo.com to find my wishes, but its hard. I kinda want UV filters for all my lenses, but then again, I wanna buy L lenses as soon as I can. So I guess probably a 58mm UV filter would been needed anyways. Umm. And I really need a skarf, I want one of those that everone has. Lol But I just simply love them.

And oo. I really want a Lara Jade print that I can frame and put on my wall. Or any other of my favourite photographers; Joey Lawrence, Richard Avedon, Annie Leibovitz. That would just be awesome ! Books by my favs? Perhaps..

Marie

Last night was so much fun, but as usual a fun night results in a crappy morning. Its weird that you think the night before that it is worth it cause it is so much fun, but then, the day after you´re like..Crap.... 

Anyways, so for today I was shoot some pictures with a friend, Marie, mostly to try out different stuff with my 580 EX II flash, which i used to hate, but now love.

Some of the pictures turned out nice and is all uploaded at my Flickr

And thanks to Nina for helping out ...

I have alot of shoots coming up for school-work, and I wanna thank everyone that is helping me out with them, modeling and assisting.

New Age Ninjas

Okay. So yesterday I went to shoot NaN, a performing-group consisting of 5 really great guys who knows their stuff. We got to shoot 3 of them and a friend of them. With me I had Øyvind as an assistant and co-photographer (lol), and Tone and a friend of her as stylists. An awesome team, and a must-do-again!

I am currently loaded with school and my boring-ass job so I haven´t really looked through all my pictures yet. But have faith, I WILL publish more than just this one, love it thou...

There was actually an artist in the room next to us working on something really cool! She made the fiber-chords glow using music and a video-canon in each end...

Yvonne

Idag var meg og Yvonne oppe og tok bilder i en gammel hytte her med meg....
