Being a Tourist in Dubai.

As some of you might remember I assisted Swedish photographer, Henrik Mill at a wedding last summer. http://shippeyphotography.blogspot.com/2010/06/swedish-wedding.html

Henrik that I was photographing alongside was recently interviewed by a Swedish magazine called Style where one of my images of him in action are featured, please take a look at page 39 and if you can read Swedish please also read the article :-) http://issuu.com/stylewesteras/docs/style_nr.1_2011

My mum is here for a quick visit it is her first time in Dubai so we have plenty of things on our To Do and See List. I am sure I will be taking plenty of photographs, I'll show you guys later.

Swedish Wedding!

Back from a few weeks break.

Well it wasn’t only a break I was of course busy using my camera as well! You can’t really go far without it if you are an avid photographer as I am.

I have now started to blog for a Swedish newspaper in Swedish so for all my fans that can read Swedish please take a look at this link. I am posting almost everyday. If you don’t know how to read Swedish maybe you can try Google’s free language translator will probably be a bit hilarious at times ;-) the translation that is maybe not my writing… ha ha. Hopefully my writing will be  a bit more witty as well. It’s a different kind of blog from this one so don’t be shy take a peek.

Whilst in Sweden I was assisting at a Swedish Wedding in Västerås, which was great fun. I was helping out Photographer Henrik Sunvisson that does loads of weddings in the Västerås area of Sweden. You can see his work through this link he does some remarkable portraits. http://www.henkasfoto.blogg.se/ andhttp://www.uppdragmedia.se/

I recommend that even if you are an established photographer to go out and help/assist or be the second shooter with another photographer once in a while you will have great fun for one thing and you always learn something, you will both act differently for the same shot for sure.
