Behind The Scenes of a commercial lifestyle photo shoot in Chania Crete, Greece

My journal

I was recently approached to commercially photo shoot for a new clothing company here in Chania, Crete Greece.

The newly formed company called Rice Above Fear is based in the UK and owned by a young Greek form Chania.

The company wanted a youthful photo shoot with a lifestyle approach. Just the kind of stuff I love.

The photo shoot was done in two parts. Day one in the studio for the products and day two outdoors around town by a lake and finally on the beach.

Putting together a good crew and models was essential. I always want to be efficient on set, but if we can’t have a good time in the process then why bother.

The result is good pictures and some pretty funny outtakes.

To view the final images make sure to visit Rise Above Fear.

Q & A with filming / editing mini workshop with cinematographer Hector Torra in Chania Crete, Greece.

One of them is Hector Torra. A cinematographer from Spain with a spirit and humor similar to myself.   Hector and his girlfriend, the lovely Carolina came to Crete to visit the island and spend some time together. While here we had a chance to talk shop and try to find ways to potentially work together. In my opinion it is just a matter of time. In the mean while I asked Hect ...

24h escape to the South of Crete in Paleochora
It all happened mid week, 75 min away in less than 24hours in September. Paleohora in the South of Crete is our favourite destination "get-away".  Amazing beaches, great food and family atmosphere. And all that can be arranged within one stop. Just drive up to the "Palm Tree" and you are done. Perrakis family takes care of the rest. Rooms, food and tones of smiles. We have always loved hanging out there from our single days up to now as a family. Andreas, one of the three brothers has been a buddy of mine since my cycling days and now we both enjoy time together as dads. If that ain't proof of friendship longevity I don't know wha ...
