PHOTOGRAPHER DANIEL MÅNSSON

Today i´m really happy to introduce todays creative guest on my blog whose work I have admired for many years 
photographer Daniel Månsson. I have made a brief interview with him and picked some pictures with his permission 
from his impressive website. More pics to see also on his blog ddmphoto.blogspot.se, now take it away Daniel!

Hello! Who are you?  -I am Daniel Månsson commerical/editorial photographer specilist on lifestyle, travel and portraits.

What is it that drives you forward in your profession as a photographer? -I want to try to become better and better.  

My photos are ok but not still A++.  I hope I will get there before I`m 60.

Tell us about the biggest challenge that you have faced as a photographer, and your greatest best photo memory?

-There is always a big challenge to shoot commercial jobs, to make a client happy and still make a picture with my 

signature style in it. That challenge is also what makes me to become a better photographer. Best memory, I was in 

Iceland  7 month ago for Mazda, that was something extra. 

If you could develop interiror shootings, and to contribute with something new to the branch what would that be? 

-I think a lot looks too staged. You still have to style it but to make it look natural is hard. I think some of the stuff 

IKEA do in there ads with the sun coming through the windows and moody, foggy style is great. But they also have 

the best agency producing it, Forsman Boedenfors. 

What gives you that creative kick! -To rise the level of my quality, styling, lighting, location and then put it all 
together and make something better then I did last time.

Do you have some good tips to give to all interiror bloggers who photographes interior daily for their blog?

-Don´t think too much, try to capture the feeling instead of the surface. Everybody loves to see a picture with soul in it.

Too perfect gets boring...

Where will you be in ten years from now? -Hopefully I will work more with international clients and live down 

south in Sweden. Altough I love my job I think it is very importent to have balance. To enjoy friends and life.

INTERIOR // in the livingroom

Every spring I start to reorganize and moving things around in the house. It has to be something to do when the sun looks out I think ;) As now I am forming small tables with my magazines in the livingroom and trying to find a spot to my new plastic pot from ikea. As usually it is not about major changes, but it's the small changes that counts. 

Now I have news to tell you! In my next post will a talented photographer who is specialist on lifestyle be my first guest blogger here. He travels around the world shooting commerical/editorial pictures and takes according to me just amazing pictures! He will also give he´s point of view what he think is important for good interior photos. Looking forward to that!

MORE GREYISH

Today i´m in mood for grey. Yes I know that we shold love colours now when it´s spring time but I love grey 

colour! The black boxes that I use to storage my accessories are from granit and driftwood that I found from the beach 

last year serves as a nice jewelery holder. Find more greyish fashion inspiration here! See you later! Annaleena xx

MONDAY SNAPSHOTS

Monday snapshots is about details. Inspired by april month when we have winter behind oss and summer 

is coming. I hope you like details as much as I do because details are so inspiring in themselfs, like a creative 

expression in our interiror and that a personal touch that makes a difference in the hole picture!

 The magazine is Covers latest issue. 

DIY // BLACK

Hello! I hope you are enjoying your weekend :) Today I post new pics about my favorite DIY -wooden hanger that I did 

when I was guestblogging at Emmas designblogg. I have painted the wooden hanger now black. I think it was really nice as 

natural too, but the black colour does that everything looks more dramatic! I like that:) By the way, my home paige is 

open now, please take a look here, annaleena.se. Happy weekend to you all! Annaleena xx

LOTTA AGATON SHOP

I had to post these wonderful pictures directly when I saw them on Lotta`s blog today. They are shooted by Pia Ulin 

and styled by Lotta Agaton for Lotta Agaton Shop. And of course it makes me really proud to see that my pyramids 

are there :) I love the location too, It looks like to be an old factory. Just awesome pics, enjoy!

Jag var tvungen att posta dessa bilder direkt när jag såg dem på Lotta Agatons blog idag. Bilderna är plåtade av Pia Ulin och stylade av Lotta Agaton för Lotta Agaton Shop. Helt perfekt balans med kontraster -nytt och gammalt. Älskar också platsen där dom har fotat bilderna, det ser ut som att vara en gammal fabrik. Ni känner väl igen pyramiderna :D Mera bilder finns på Lottas blog.

MONDAY SNAPSHOTS

Monday snapshots is dedicated to the challenge that fabriken has now -this is my style-  so if I would describe my own
personal style signature it would be like this. It´s low key, raw and clean with influences from Finland and Danmark with roots 

in Sweden. My style is a total mix of all scandinavian styles! The pics that I posted is details that I love now. Something old, something new and something blue...:) Switch over to see more stylish inspiration here!

FRIDAY INSPIRATION//COAT RACK

Here comes a fresh sneak peak of two new products that will be available via my website soon- coat hangers! 

I love them because they are so practical and fits in everywhere, in a office or in a home. I have already one 

in my bedroom, no more clothes on the floor. Here more coat hanger inspiration from

the dutch blogger Desirée with the blogg Vosqes Paris and her lovely coat hanger! Happy weekend :)

Här är ett färsk sneak peak av två nya produkter som kommer att finnas tillgängliga via min hemsida. 

Handsmidda klädhängare. Jag bara älskar dom och tror att det kommer att passa in överallt, på kontoret eller i 

ett hem. Jag har redan en i mitt sovrum, det är slut med klädhögar på golvet. Trevlig helg :)

SOMETHING NEW

I have started twittering, it feels a bit like when I started with facebook, how do I do? What can I write? But it's

 quite fun when you come into it. So now you can find my everyday life updates via twitter, or via facebook,

or you can also see my favorite pictures on pinterest here. Puuh..a lot to keep track of, see you later!
