Munich - Frankfurt: WE! SHOOT IT

WE! shoot it, is the international working photographers-duo Michael Compensis and Thomas von Salomon. 

Right at the start of the new decade, they showed us their new personal project calendar 'ICON 911'. The underlying idea was to visualise all generations of the iconic Porsche 911. From the very first series of 911s, still named 901, to the recently launched latest model 992 – each series in between was lensed by the duo.

Each vehicle was photographed in the studio, but staged individually. That’s what made the project so interesting. But that’s not all; Michael and Thomas had the rare opportunity to walk around the individual vehicles with their owners and spontaneously find the “perfect” perspective and come up with the right way to stage the cars. For their outstanding personal project Thomas and Michael just recently have been nominated for the International Gregor Calendar Award 2020.

For Smart social media, the two staged the Smart ForFour with electric drivechain. In a couple of pictures but also cinemagraphs they pointed out the electric theme by putting some flickering icons in the motifs, shot right on location by using a special lighting tool to project them!
