Thyssen Krupp, unlike it’s Krupp Stainless Steel counterpart, focuses on elevators and escalators. One would think it’s quite a narrow field, but with the amount of high-rises in Shanghai I’m not surprised at just how busy they are!
So, they needed some photography for their corporate brochure, covering some of the different services they have: sales, technical inspection teams, engineers and friendly customer service representatives!

This was the first photo-shooting I did with Stoll, since then we have shot multiple catalogues together… and once again this summer, I’m looking forward to seeing the printed results.
For this collection the client wanted to have a Chocolate themed shooting, so we were working with a make-up artist (Kate) and a food stylist (Michael), to take care of the styling. We didn’t use as much chocolate as we thought we might in the end… food and clothing just didn’t seem to mix well unfortunately. It happens, sometimes you just have to try to learn.

Looks can be deceiving. This might look like your little backyard TONKA truck, but it isn’t. It’s the real deal. The Real McKoy!
I must admit that when I was first asked to photograph a real size excavator my jaw dropped. Half from a boyish excitement that brought me back to countless hours lost in my home’s backyard, playing with my trucks as a boy… and the other half was a bit afraid. Taking a beautiful product photo of something so massive it challenging, to say the least!
This excavator was not only shiny with metal and plexiglass surfaces, but the body is round, which always makes it a huge challenge with reflective surfaces. Four hours of work, and here’s the result:

Shanghai Krupp Stainless Steel was looking for some professional images of their factory in Pudong. I had always been curious about the place as it’s one of the first buildings you really notice coming from the Shanghai airport, just before you take the bridge into the city.
The day covered not only CEO portraits and architecture, but their internal services and structure – with a focus on the technology they use.

What an amazing day. Twenty models, a whole lot of shoes and enough colour to give a blind man sight again!
I’m happy with the results of the photo-shooting in great part because it was the idea and the concept I was pushing through: a mix between the GAP and United Colours of Benetton. With our colourful wardrobe it’s quite a visual impact.
