We encourage you to go to their site and read some of their posts. You won’t regret it.
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.
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.
From now on Atelier Stolzenberg is also present on Pinterest!
Pinterest is a great way to introduce the pictures of Max Stolzenberg to people all around the world.
We want to thank you in advance for sharing Max’s photographies on your pinboard and showing them to your friends.
During our Summer in South France Max and the girls stayed at a beautiful house from the 1920’s. It was surrounded by meadows and one day Yuna discovered some horse stables that belonged to a stud farm not far away. As you can imagine the girls where instantly hooked and so they went to ask the owner if it was possible to visit the horses.
The owners where very nice and humble people and so they invited them to their paddocks.
Max and the models thank them for their hospitality. It was an unforgettable experience.
It was a beautiful sunny evening when they arrived. A mild breeze was rushing through the treetops and the light was just right for some splendid romantic photos. The girls took Lulu and Garfield, the owner’s dog and cat, straight to their hearts and especially Maria and Bilitis showed their talent in communicating with the animals. The horses had blind trust into them and everything was in total harmony.
Girls and horses are a beautiful motive and we think you will agree that Max has once again shown his talent for genuine film photography. We hope you enjoy this new set of photos and the video.
For the video Max chose “Promenade” a song from Francis Lai written for David Hamilton’s film Bilitis
