Just a picture from my recent trip to Rome - it’s easy to take nice pictures in this city as (nearly) everything you see there is beautiful and worth being photographed. The light is also on your side; the ochres of the old buildings get more vivid in the setting sun and thousand years old stones reveal the finest details when lit the right way. The city is an astonishing show in itself. As usually, come to see more on my website, www.jancphoto.com.

Today I’m publishing an example of my landscape work. This picture was taken in January in the sunny Southern California near San Diego. The surfers were climbing back up from the beach while the light setting sun was creating interesting effects by making its way through the humid air above the ocean.

Strobes are great but I enjoy working in a fully equipped pro studio as well; for some shootings and for commercial work I rent one that is here in Paris - Studio Blad in the 9th arrondissement. They have great Profoto lights and all things that make your life easier when you bring in models, such as a kitchen, a shower and a make up desk. All you need to do is bring your camera and voilĂ . Here I shot the singer Don L Castor from LA who now lives in Paris; I used 4 lights (again): the main one was a big octogon camera right, two strip boxes and a snoot that lights Don’s hair and spills on the background as well, creating this nice little aura around him.
