Great clients creating great work

This month we are excited to share the work of our talented client Holger Obenaus! Congratulations Holger for creating such stellar images that graces the cover of this months South East Florida Style & Design Magazine!


 Holger Shares Details About The Project

South East Florida Style and Design, launched a brand-new 400+ pages interior design and art-magazine that will be published nationwide in airports, Barnes & Nobles, select grocery store chains -and, of course, all over South East Florida!
I shot the cover, three… 14-page home-features, numerous editorial 3-page articles and featured photos for advertisers.
The images supplied are from two condos that I shot, one on Fisher Island in Miami (Sofia Joelsson Design) and the other one on South Beach Miami at the new Oceana Tower (Fede Design).
I spent two weeks shooting the images traveling from Miami, up to Palm Beach and across to Naples and Captiva Island.



Shooting Under Pressure…

The photoshoots are challenging because – due to travel schedules – there is no time to scout locations ahead of time. I have to decide on the go to choose the perfect time and light for each shot. 14-page home-features have to be accomplished in roughly 6-7 hours. Weather can be a big factor. I don’t have much wiggle room in my calendar due to production deadlines and travel schedules to move shooting days last minute. Excellent equipment and a flawless workflow are mandatory for fast results without compromising any quality. The stakes for a new publication are high and there is only one chance to make a first impression.
