John Wilhelm is a 44-year-old IT Director at a Swiss university with a passion for photography and digital art. Some of his most wonderfully creative photo manipulations are of his girlfriend Judith and their three young daughters – Lou (5.5 years), Mila (2.8 years) and Yuna (6 months).
Although the photographs look like much fun, we all know that getting children to work with a photographer can sometimes be difficult. “I guess if you have a healthy emotional connection to your kids they can feel if something is really important for you and then they cooperate (and if they don’t there are still sweets and candies),” John mentioned.
Scroll down and check out some of these incredibly awesome photographs that John took of his daughters. I only wish I had half of his creativity!
John‘s photos are surreal and eclectic. “I guess I watched just a little too much TV and played too many video games when I was a kid,” he said, explaining his many sources of inspiration.
“Most of my images are heavily manipulated but not all of them are compositions. If an image works straight out of the camera I just improve it (beauty retouching, cleanup, level corrections, sharpening, colors and tones, emphasize light, etc.). What I really love is to bring different images together to create something completely new,” John said, explaining his manipulation techniques.
