Remember that not that long ago I wrote one of my photographs was published in Playboy magazine? Well, if you don’t, then have a look here. But anyway, every photographer likes to see his work published. No matter how small – in terms of actual print or circulation of the media – as long as it’s printed with your name. My eldest son’s girlfriend, Milou, is starting her own lifestyle and fashion business called F.A.L.L., along with a website and magazine. Have a look here to see what it’s all about. I did a fotoshoot with her a few weeks ago, to get a picture to go with an editorial piece in her magazine. In one of our national newspapers today was a small article about her starting her own business in a difficult market. Along with a picture of her. See the article and the original picture below.
It remains amazing to see how these photo editors ruin the original shot. And what’s even worse: no mention of the photographer whatsoever! My name was photoshopped in the original, but as a result of the heavy cutting completely left out.
Well, never mind. I’m glad I was able to help her with the photoshoot. Good to see the material is being used. There will be 2 more articles about her business in 2 other national newspapers later this week. One with and one without a picture. And her own magazine will officially be launched in Amsterdam on the 20th. I’ll be there as well, just to make sure they’ve used the proper image and with my name attached.
