The relaunch of the TRASKA PHOTOGRAPHERS website is finally complete and the new homepage is up and ready to welcome many a virtual visitor.

Thomas MOTTA was commissioned by PORSCHE MOTORSPORT to take pictures in the pit stop at the Nürgburg Ring during the Porsche Carrera Cup, as well as at the last Porsche Mobile 1 season Supercup race in Monza, which coincides with the Formula 1 races. Dominique During c/o Kemper Kommunikation headed the art direction.

In addition to this, Thomas completed shoots for the December and January issues of ADAC Motorwelt. The magazines feature a motif for an article on the new E10 petrol, which will be introduced in 2011. The post-production for PORSCHE and ADAC were both applied by Gregor Frotscher.

Christoph LOEB recently photographed three spreads in Lisboa for OK magazine. The team included editor Nadine Najjar and hair and make-up artist JULIA Sergienko c/o BIGOUDI. The shoot was produced on location, set against the dreamy backdrop that is Perstana Palace. We have attached a selection of the most beautiful images.

Ralf GELLERT produced a pool shoot for KABELBW, commissioned by Serviceplan Munich. Furthermore, three new campaign motifs were produced for the 'We are Internice' campaign.

The Seltmann+Söhne publishing house released a picture book for German Cancer Relief, titled 'Rainer Wahnsinn'. Germany's most popular actors had their portraits taken for the book project. Ralf photographed Florian David Fitz. A percentage of the proceeds will be donated to German Cancer Relief (as reported by GoSee).

Conrad PIEPENBURG travelled to Tokyo and Hong Kong for GEO SAISON. GoSee presents some first images from the Tokyo report, as well as the BMW 1er production in Salzburg, more to follow on GoSee soon.

Sven HEINRICH was invited to Thomas D.'s home for a TELEKOM campaign shoot. The result is a series of portraits created in the musician's private space. The agency was Tribal DDB.

The Publicis Switzerland agency commissioned Sven to photograph the new GEBERIT worldwide campaign. The elaborate production was shot in Hamburg. Sven produced new CONGSTAR motifs for DDB Düsseldorf and FREIXENET’s '150 years Freixenet' anniversary advert. More on this next time.

Last autumn, Torsten KLINKOW created the campaign motifs for the new PORSCHE CAYMAN R. All back plates were photographed in Spanish container ports and finally processed in collaboration with Zerone CGI. Immediately after that, Torsten travelled to the United States for another Porsche job. Pictures will follow upon release.

Hendrik NENNECKE and his team undertook a journey to Buenos Aires for BRANDNEU. The trip started on a jolly note with two upgrades to Business Class! A relaxed awakening at 27°C, followed by a three hour transfer to a splendid estancia in the South of Buenos Aires. He spent two days shooting in the farm area, which was blessed with the most lovely weather conditions, riding on polo horses with real gauchos for location scouting and eight days of fabulous weather in Buenos Aires. A superb production thanks to Toro Productions/Argentina and GoSee member MARION WALTER. . .

Gran Canaria was the location of choice for the spring issue of MYTREND. Hair and make-up artist Nini Nielson and stylist Anja Hammann joined AD Ingo Maul on set. The journey was rounded off with a voyage to the extremely pleasant Sheraton Salobre.

We have also attached several photographs from freelance fashion productions featuring collection pieces by Tonja Zeller. PATRICIA Bontscheff c/o BIGOUDI perfected models Pilona Lynova and Anna Maria’s hair & make-up.

Hendrik photographed spring motifs under a perceived outside temperature of minus 11 degrees for BOSCH THERMO TECHNIK and a portrait of a famous German actor for PETA – more details to follow soon.
