Out of Focus

Not every image needs to be in focus, sometimes being out of focus tell more about the story and adds to the image. If these images were in focus they would not have had the same impact. These images were taken during a winter train journey in Norway using the movement of the train to create these Landscape/abstract images.

Photographer

Marcel Laponder

I photograph people in motion. I photograph what unfolds before me to capture an emotion and to tell a story.

I want to capture an instance where you can look at the photo and you would say: “I remember that moment, I remember what I was thinking, I know what I was feeling”. Instead of posing you and you saying: “oh, what a pretty picture”. I want to show you in pictures what you would normally take for granted.

Over the last nine years I represented Great Britain on the World Cup and World Championships in Winter Biathlon. As an athlete I started photography and through sport my photography developed.

I use my experience gained from capturing athletes in motion and I apply those principles to telling a story in sport, wedding and lifestyle photography.
