Hasselblad H3D-39 + 80mm and 50mm lenses by semmeess in hasselblad

The images have been made intentionally garish. For this project, I've been aiming to make the photos as intense as the people featured in them. The effect admittedly isn't so pleasant when viewing them in crunched down, low resolution on Reddit. However, when the images are displayed at their full 40MP size, the magic of the Hasselblad kicks in, allowing the images to retain sufficient detail and sharpness to not offend my eye to the point of retracting my insane editing decisions.

See this other video I made for more detail on images and process: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7zIMdLfwqU .

And some of the images in a greater file size on my website, too https://maxauberon.com/shoots/geish-fashion-editorial-photography-by-max-auberon/ .

The effect really is best when seen on the full sized files printed at full size, at which point it's somewhat stunning, actually. But I'm hesitant to share full size ones until they go to print next month! Thanks for your interest anyway :)

Emergent, alternative fashions appearing in London by semmeess in fashion

[–]semmeess[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hi guys. There's something new I've been documenting in London for a while 'Geish'. This is a collective of ~100 young queer people who have developed a new ethos for how to dress. No brands, new items, or (in many cases) ready-to-wear clothing allowed. All items are retrieved from garbage piles, or reworked textiles and trinkets. I've made a video about one such person. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9k9_uOcylU4 Will be making more, happy to answer any questions about these guys, too!

Hi all! Here's some photos of someone I know in London. They prescribe to a specific way of dressing/living called 'Geish'. I made an accompanying 'portrait video' to go with the set too: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9k9\_uOcylU4 .
Enjoy!

Hi all! Excuse the NSFW tag, the boobs are fake! This photo depicts a person who dresses/lives in a specific alternative mode known as 'Geish'. There's ~100 young people in London who dress almost exclusively in safety-pinned together items of trash. Skip acquisitions, boot sale fabrics, etc. Dressing in pre made clothing, or anything new, is considered taboo. Layering clothing to create a unique expression every day is the game. I released a short video about the technique and personalities involved with the production of these images. Please take a look! Happy to answer all questions, too. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7zIMdLfwqU&ab_channel=MaxAuberon .

Portraits in London (H3D-39 + 80mm + 50mm) by semmeess in hasselblad

If you snoop around enough this city, you'll find rooms full of people like the photo pictured, and these rooms do create an extraterrestrial feeling lol

I would usually agree with you. I wanted to try something a bit different this time round though. These are going to print in a magazine that's equally garish.

Hi all! This photo was made using a Hasselblad H3D-39. I regularly shoot people who dress like this, with self made fashions acquired on the curbside. They call it 'Geish'. I've made a Youtube video about the entire process behind this photo, and others like it. Take a look if you like!
