There are echoes lost in the garden, is anybody listening?

Some more photos from the shoot I had with Sunniva (Sòl) last summer, in context with her band, Vǫluspá, releasing their first album. We wanted to experiment with different backgrounds and lighting to see how we could create a different mood with the same outfit. I quite like the forest background, it works well with the viking-theme we usually go for, although it was a nightmare to shoot here with thousands of mosquitoes trying to eat us alive. We suffered through it though (Sunniva the most, being the one with the least amount of clothes) in the hope that some of the photos would turn out great, which I think they did!
Also, if anyone finds my editing to be horrible, bear with me, I’ve never had any Photoshop courses, so all my photos are victims of try and fail, or try and succeed! The more I edit though, the more I learn, and the more I love the endless possibilities that Photoshop give us.
Though our hearts break, through violent winds our ship will sail

Finally! Here’s some of the photos I took of Sunniva last summer, in context with her band, Vǫluspá, releasing their first album. Check out their songs here or on Facebook here . I love how the colours in the background compliment the feathers she’s wearing, and I’m quite happy with the way these pictures turned out. I have a few more photos I’d like to share with you guys, so stay tuned 🙂
Oh, also:
I’ve been wanting to change my blog theme for a while, and finally got around to do so, giving it a more professional look and making my photos HUGE so that they stand out more. What do you guys think?
Create a hype, then turn it around

Proud to share some really cool pictures of my friend Katherine that I took a while ago. Refreshing with a new face, and she is such an easy model to work with! This girl know how to pose, and her outfits were all really amazing! These are just from the first outfit, so I’ll share some more photos later (just need to edit them all first, which takes AGES!).
Hey, we’ve got the world to see, so let’s forget our anxieties and get on our way

Just some very improvised pictures I took the other day while tidying my room (everything is more fun than that, am I right?). The light in my room is perfect for some nice natural light-portraits, so in the lack of a better model, I went ahead and took a few “selfies” using my 35 mm lens and the timer.
Hurray for longer days, hurray for more and more sunlight, hurray for spring!
Ma belle amie, Claire

Here is the rest of the photos I took when Camille and Claire came to visit me in Edinburgh. This is beautiful Claire!
I must say I was really impressed with both of them, smiling and wearing only thin dresses in the freezing cold weather with winds and 6*C, bad ass french girls.
Only one exam left now and then it’s back to Norway, woooo!
French beauty

Here are some of the photos I took when my beautiful friends from France were in Edinburgh earlier this month, starting with Camille! Don’t know anyone else with such amazing curls, just look at that hair! I will upload another post with pictures of Claire when I get back to Norway after exams, so stay tuned (:
Full of life, full of love

It’s been a great week with good old friends visiting me in Edinburgh, both from France and America. So nice to be with people that know you well and care about you, this was a much needed break from a semester which has mostly been all about studying. We had tons of tasty food, laughs and jokes, shopping, several visits to pubs with mandatory jega games, and of course Japanese drinking games! Pepper Yamyam (no idea how to write that)! Even got time for a little photo shoot with my beautiful french girls, which I will post here soon! They turned out so nice, even with the weather being really cold and windy.
Now it’s 100% revision mode on until I head back to Norway for Christmas! Can’t wait to come home to white snow and home made meals and be with my family again. I will definitely take a lot of photos in Norway and post them here, so stay tuned! (:
Night gathers and now my watch begins

I rarely work with black & white photos, but thought these photos turned out great! They were taken this summer when I was working with Sunniva on a project that will still have to be kept hidden (at least for a little longer) before I can share the photos with you guys!
