Here is some pictures when i met one of the greatest photographers, David Lachapelle.

He had a seminar and gallery opening in Stockholm last year. 

His story of his life and the telling of the background of his pictures was amazing!
Thats an artist!
He describes how he begins with an idea and developing it to a picture.
He has a good personality and down to earth!

I got the chance to talk to him at the realese party and it ended up with that we left the party, and chattet all night
talking about photography and all the famous people he worked with.

I asked if i could come and work with him as an assistant, and he said yes and suggested that i could come to NY

when he was going to work with Chris Rock, but then he changed his mind and wanted me to be one of the models

on a big photoshoot at his home in Hawaii. They are going to build a big pirateship and wanted me to be one of the pirates,

so i had to save to beard and loose some pounds so i looked like a real pirate.

When six month had gone i had a long beard they said the shoot was postponed and they contacted me when they are ready.

So i could finally shave the not so good looking beard and wait to the production is on track again.

But i did another job when i had beard.. like a homeless in Pimp our City commercial for Oslo kommune and a Sheriff for Sheriff TV

But i prefered to be a pirate for David Lachapelle.

I spent to days with David and had a great time!
