Frankfurt: Frederic Schlosser
Frederic Schlosser is an automotive photographer focused on strong moods and emotional light. Born and raised in Germany, Frederic's passion is mostly about cars and design.
His latest work for the all-new KIA Seltos shows his artistic way of shooting cars. The conscious interplay of light and shadow creates interesting shapes and layers to frame the car. The campaign was shot in Sydney, Australia, alongside with the famous model Georgia Fowler. It’s about transporting a lifestyle and a feeling rather than just showing a product.
For BMW ALPINA Frederic photographed the new XB7 on the beautiful German island of Sylt. Dramatic skies and soft lighting are underlining the powerful, luxury car. The constantly changing weather situation on the island was a challenge which allowed only short time frames of natural light.
Both projects are photographed and retouched by Frederic.

Title: Porsche 911 Sport Classic
Porsche is drawing attention to the new 911 Sport Classic with an unusual marketing campaign. This ‘icon of cool’ is opening a new chapter in the Porsche Heritage Design strategy, with the goal of bringing a past era back to life. “The wide-ranging marketing measures evoke the expressive attitudes of the 1960s and early 70s, targeting Porsche customers and fans,” says Robert Ader, Vice President of Marketing at Porsche AG. “As a collector’s item that offers great driving pleasure, the new limited-edition model is being presented on the Côte d’Azur and at other locations. At the center of the campaign are a large-format coffee table book of more than 100 pages and the reveal film ‘A Tale of Now and Then’.
The photos were taken in an editorial reportage style on the Côte d’Azur. The conscious interplay of sharp and hazy gives the images the appearance of random snapshots.
