"Creating Visual Moments.

Photography is the art to capture a moment, stopping the world for a brief second, only to preserve it forever in digital or analogue form. 

With my photography I want to collect these moments and emotions to tell a story. They are visual tales about journeys to distant countries, big cities and lonely mountain worlds - little moments. Moments and emotions the viewer easily understands, gets touched by, feels and experiences through my imagery.

Natural light and the vagaries of the weather provide me with the framework for a scene. Adjustment, flexibility and teamwork are necessary to capture the atmosphere and emotion which in the end touches the viewer and pleases the customer."

Michael recently shot for clients including About you, BASF, Buff, DKV Mobility, Dynafit, Odlo, Otto Kern Fragrances, Powerbar, Superdry, and Würth.

Ray Demski is a Canadian photographer, director and DoP based in the German Alps.

Growing up in the rocky mountains of Canada, Ray always loved the outdoors, a passion amplified by the fact that from the age of 14 he spent seven years sailing around the world on a 45-foot sailboat. It was during this time that Ray picked up his first camera and ignited his passion for documenting the diverse people and landscapes around him, while also developing his skills as an athlete.

In his role as a Nikon European Ambassador, Ray continues to push the possibilities of action and adventure photography. Encouraging others to explore the world around them and always search for something different.

Clients include adidas, Audi, AOK, Black Diamond, Bogner, Braun, BMW, Callaway, Descente, Multipower, Nikon, Red Bull, Salewa, Siemens.

"Latin America is rich, diverse and vibrant and our clients love coming with us to this part of the world,” says 7 Seas Productions founder Chris Bengsch, who has been operating across the region for 22 years. 

7 Seas are a multi-lingual and experienced production team servicing fashion, car and consumer brand clients across film and photo. They bring clients from Europe, the UK, Australia and the US to Latin America to produce their global campaigns with spectacular results, just ask Hermès, Bloomingdale’s and Mercedes-Benz. They have comprehensive teams on the ground, and can complete the entire job independently if required.

But if you’re missing the warmth of shooting somewhere exotic, then consider coming with 7 Seas to one of their three key production sites including Cuba, Colombia and Argentina, being Colombia right now the easiest to get to. Due to pandemic rules which can change on a weekly basis.

Got a brief? Need more information on Covid-19 restrictions? Call Chris and the team and give them a challenge. 

Everything is possible on the 7 Seas.

Aine studied experimental art and photography at the Ontario College of Art in Toronto, where she developed a taste for thinking outside of the box and extreme, experimental photographic manipulation.

In the field of botanical photography, Aine’s unique process of photographing plants results in the creation of a modern, dynamic vision. Something that has not yet been seen in the field of Botanics.

Working with an immense variety of single images taken from different focal points combined with a play of light and illumination, she is able to compose botanical imagery that exude an extraordinary depth and movement.

She enjoys challenging herself with producing images that are distinctive, dynamic and totally original in form, whether it be food or plants.

Aine’s botanical imagery has won many international awards and has been published in magazines, such as GeoWissen Germany.

Fashion is defined by its need to continually move forward and discover what's next, and that’s exactly how 7 Seas are kicking-off 2021. With new locations and a savvy team of experienced, multi-lingual producers ready to go to the ends of the earth for their clients’ vision!

As a trusted local partner for clients and also for affiliate agencies, 7 Seas provide unparalleled on-ground support, just ask their fashion friends including Bloomingdales, Disney, Tatler, Zara, NET-A-PORTER and Zimmermann who all went somewhere special. 

7 Seas offers 7 good reasons to call - Cuba, Colombia, Argentina, South-East of France, South-West of France, Chamonix and Upper Italy. With people on the ground and a solid location database to substantiate every location proposal.

Need a spectacular setting for your next fashion campaign? Want to secure a unique location that nobody else has? Talk to 7 Seas, the location masters, and see what's possible, where, when and how. They provide a curated handbook of locations matching your brief and can navigate any location requirements or limitations you may have with complete ease, after all they have been doing this for over 20 years!

For the past two years Aine has been working intensely on a continual personal project focusing on the undiscovered beauty and uniqueness of discarded supermarket food.

Working with multiple images from both her scanner and camera data, she combines these with a neutral black background, resulting in a completely new angle on food that is not only aesthetically pleasing but also amplifies its structure, colours and movement that we normally do not appreciate.

Remaining true to her minimalistic approach to food photography, Aine’s new direction to this project challenges her to use two or more elements. Each final image contains at least one item found in the garbage, whether it be food or a prop.

H5 Models was founded in Munich in 2019 by Christine Beckenbauer, co-founder and long-term managing director of the people agency Lachfalten.

The idea: to gather interesting and beautiful people with a "certain something" in a model agency. People you meet on the street and you suddenly look up because there is something very special about them: a nice laugh that shines at you, humour, class, dignity, natural beauty, and intelligence. But sometimes there is also something that you don't recognise at first glance: character, experience, traits that shape a face.

The talents of H5 Models are scouted, cast and photographed by leading photographers in all of Germany's major cities.

"In our model index you will therefore find the best professionals and amateurs in Germany, who are picked and photographed by trained eyes.

We know the industry and know what is important. To make your shoot, your campaign or your film a success, we are there for you around the clock. Just give us a call and we will do everything we can to support you with strong faces or talented actors.
