Memories of an unforgettable Summer

Max has asked us to realize two new videos containing some of the most beautiful pictures he did during his Summer stay in south France.
We are proud to announce the premiere of the first of these two videos on our YouTube channel for Sunday at 20:00 MEZ.
The video will feature photos of Belle, Bilitis, Kia, Lycil and Yuna together with Ennio Morricone’s masterpiece For love one can die..

What Max says:

This summer produced some of the most beautiful pictures. I really enjoyed the days with the girls and will forever remember the time with them. I hope you all enjoy the pictures as much as I do.
At the moment I am working on some exhibitions and I am already organizing some new photographic adventures with the girls.
We will go to Florence and meet some interesting people there. Among others the writer Olivier Mathieu and the well known photographer Corrado Pinci, former collaborator of the famous photographer Angelo Frontoni, who unfortunately died in the meantime. We all have a hang for romantic photography and I will also talk with Corrado about a future project together.
Until May I will photograph a few more girls and then go back to the south for a longer period of time, where the light and the landscape allow me to take the most beautiful pictures and inspire my creativity. Until then I wish you all much joy with my pictures and would be happy to welcome some of you at my exhibitions.

Memories of David Hamilton

One year has past since our last video with pictures of Max, chosen by the great master of light David Hamilton.

Without any question Max can be seen as the successor of David. He constantly tries to perfect his style and invents new techniques, enriching the genre of romantic photography.

From time to time Max showed his pictures to David Hamilton who gave his critique.
In this video meant to honor the death annual of David we have put some of the finest photographies of Max, rated as very well done by David himself.

The premiere of the video will take place tonight on 19:00 CET on the youtube channel of the Atelier Stolzenberg.

 

 

We want you to draw your attention especially to the following picture in the video.

It has been done by Max in a way that it almost looks like a painting.
We can assure you that no filters, neither analog nor digital, have been used to shoot this picture!
Just a simple analog 35mm camera, a single manual focus lens and the talent of Max and the beautiful jeunes filles as well as the beautiful light of south France created this picture.

This new technique was developed by Max and discussed with David just before his death.

This and all other photos of the new video are available from us.
For prices and sizes please go here.

It is no secret that Max often uses his old Minolta SRT-101 or X-700. This cameras are just the same camera that David used during the time he directed Bilitis and later in the mid eighties.

You can see it here (Minolta SRT-101).

And here (Minolta X-700).

 

Here is an old Minolta advertising from a french magazine from Max’s collection.

A picture of Max, using his beloved Minolta X-700 during a recent photo shooting in south France.

We also encourage you to visit the site of Olivier Mathieu who brought together the most complete archive of information about David Hamilton. It is really worth to be read.

 

This pictures shown on our site can be purchased as personally autographed and dry stamped prints (limited to 300 worldwide) from us.

The prices for the different sizes can be seen in the shop.

Simply write to Bilitis to place your order. She will help you through the ordering process.

 We wish you a lot of pleasure with Max Stolzenberg’s amazing photography.
