Live TV interview for Kamera & Bild at Fotomässan 2015 – ‘CREATIVE PORTRAITS WITH JENNY JACOBSSON’

 
 

A very pregnant and happy me was interviewed directly from the tv studio in the fair hall at Fotomässan (Photo Fair) 2015 by Kamera & Bild about how I work with my creative and imaginative portraits.

Fotomässan Stockholm is the biggest photo event of the year in the Nordic countries and Kamera & Bild interviewed fantastic photographers like nature photographer Mattias Klum, Pieter ten Hoopen, Emma Svensson (Rockfoto-Emma), LisaLove, and Sophie Odelberg. They were also showing the latest technique, and discussing photo trends. See my live TV interview above and check out the other interviews at Kamera & Bild.

I was invited to do 2 different talks during the event and the other one is a talk at the big stage for Moderskeppet on ‘The road to creative images that evokes emotions’. You can watch it here!

Feature and interview for Kamera & Bild – PORTRAIT SPECIAL

 
 

“PORTRAITS IN ANOTHER WORLD
Jenny Jacobsson swapped a career as a DNA analyst to one as a portrait photographer. But she shoots no ordinary portraits. Instead her images holds stories and dreams that have been developed in close cooperation with the person being portrayed. The result is often not just an image but also a friendship.”

I’m so thrilled to see this wonderful and comprehensive article about me and my photographic work in KAMERA & BILD, one of, if not the, biggest photography magazines in Sweden. It is released today in every well-stocked store with magazine.

This issue’s theme is Portraits, and is focusing on what makes a portrait good, how to think as a photographer when creating it, and gives tips about how to develop yourself together with your portrait images. I’m honored to be one of the professionals they asked to give my point of view.

The interview was done last month by reporter Ola Jacobsen and I want to give a shout out to Ola for such a nice collab! Above is the headline and introductory of the article.

Interview and feature for Moderskeppet – Behind the creative work

Interview and feature for Moderskeppet – Behind the creative work

“In photographer Jenny Jacobson’s head fits lots of amazing stories, both her own but also others. Stories that come to life in photos after careful planning, photo shooting, and creative image processing. Jenny is an image narrator who fascinates and arouses emotions…

What are her thoughts about her creativity?”

That’s the description for the interview made by Moderskeppet last week. Through the interview I got to think about questions that I believe would be useful for every photographer to contemplate every now and then. Join me and get Behind the Scenes of my parallell worlds!

In the spotlight of ‘f11 Magazine’ – 27 page feature and interview

Posted on by jennyjacobsson

In the spotlight of ‘f11 Magazine’ – 27 page feature and interview

“Jenny Jacobsson is a Swedish photographer from the city of Gothenburg. Her mission is to create a narrative, using expressive and emotional imagery. From concept, through construction, capture and post production, her images hint at stories where the impossible really does becomes possible. It’s a far cry from her previous work in neurobiology and the satisfying result of a decision to follow her heart and embrace her passion for creating conceptual imagery.
Jenny Jacobsson – Storyteller“

Tim Steele


That is the description for the big feature and interview in f11 Magazine, written by publisher and creative director Tim Steele. I’m so happy to have been given the opportunity to be part of this amazing magazine written all the way from the other side of the globe, in New Zealand. In this October issue the magazine covers images taken from all across Australia (winning work from AIPP APPA Awards 2014), to the desert in southern Africa (Joshua Holko), finding its way to the northern climes of my home in Scandinavia, reflecting the global approach by f11. And it’s exciting!



Some of my favorite interview questions from the feature is

• Your subjects obviously inspire you to tell their stories, but what external sources also influence or inspire you?
• I see strong conceptual pre-visualisation in the creation of your images, does the idea always survive the migration to the capture process?



If it’s hard to read from the images, read the full 27 page feature and interview here:

• Download PDF…

Issue 37 | October 2014 , page 94-120

I want to give a shout-out to Tim Steele, for being such a nice person and a terrific editor to work with. Thank you!
