Theo Solberg Photography

Concert, event, visual art, landscape / outdoor modeling photography

With Thera Burda, in charge of Art@Work 2022 exhbition at Statistics Netherlands. Picture shot in November 2021.

I bought my first SLR (a second hand Minolta) around 1978, when I was still a student. It took me until 2007 to buy my first DSLR (Nikon). In 2019 and 2020 I have added three mirrorless cameras to my gear (Panasonic and Olympus).

Having shot different subjects, I drifted more and more towards concert photography. This of course had to do with my passion for and involvement in music. So concert photography has become my major subject.

Through my oldest brother, who is a painter, I have also become a regular visitor of the world of visual art. I often shoot openings of exhibitions, but also sometimes shoot individual pieces of art for PR purposes, like for posters or press releases.

Due to the circumstances in 2020 and 2021, I have not been able to keep up shooting my usual subjects as other years. To keep busy, I turned to shooting local landscapes, seeking more peaceful and quiet spots. And sometimes with outdoor modeling. After 2021 I have continued shooting this mix of subjects.
In 2022 other kinds of events became subjects, like dance performances (flamenco, ballet) and cosplay.
Here below I have embedded a playlist with videos that show pictures of concerts, dance performances, cosplay, landscapes and models (in landscapes).
