…and dance

…and dance - Blog-Beitrag von Fotograf Pete Jordan / 10.06.2021 01:23

I’ve been dancing every morning for a year now, solo dancing to a random dozen songs from my library, straight out of bed, naked. In the year of nigh on zero physical contact with other humans, it’s kept me grounded and (relatively) sane. Anyhow, in April, I had my old phone set up on a beanbag camera mount, from doing a Facebook Live of a poem the previous day, so in a WTF moment a couple of songs into my session, I set it up to film my moves.

There not a lot I can do with it, as a movie, as even flickr bans (in their terms) “restricted” vids, but I grabbed some frames from it; here are a few, cropped to square.

In the last few months I had several shootings in different places with frau_katzenblum. I took over 10,000 pictures with her. And edited more than 1000 of them. So as you can see, the nine images that I present on this blog are only a very small part of our work together. And not only that: it’s just an excerpt from a single series that was created during our last shoot together.

Teilnehmer: Model Frau Katzenblum

As a rule, I avoid concentrating on the clothes during photo shoots, as it is very often just run-of-the-mill clothing. Only when I think the clothes are extraordinary do I use them specifically in my pictures.

From time to time my wife has ideas for dresses that show more than they hide. Then she creates a pattern, orders suitable fabric, cuts everything and then sews the garment. I take these pieces with me to my shoot when I think they fit the model and ask the model if she would like to pose in this outfit. With this top I found the model and the almost empty location very suitable. I also photographed her in another self-made outfit in this location. Pictures of it will follow in a later blog post

These pictures were taken on a very hot and humid summer day in August 2020 in a loft in the center of Cologne. In another blog post from the same shoot you can see the fan that ran during the entire shoot to provide at least a little refreshment.
