Photo reportage with analogue character
Client
Condecta AG, Winterthur
There are sometimes photographic subjects that really call for special image processing. This was the case with the photo reportage about MobiToils from the company Condecta: small, portable toilets that are placed on large construction sites in high-rise buildings. Because when a construction worker is working on the 16th floor of a high-rise, there is no toilet in the building, no elevator, and in some cases not even a staircase. Therefore, the company Condecta distributes small, portable toilets across the various floors. When three high-rise buildings are being built at once, that's quite a lot of toilets, which then have to be constantly emptied and cleaned by employees. Everything has to be done quickly, and it's a tough world on the construction site.
That's why I've prepared a small series of images with an analog look – fitting the theme, so to speak: black and white with vignetting and film grain. The good old analog days were beautiful after all ;-).
As always, I shot digitally in color with the Leica SL2. Everything had to be done quickly, so I shot with the two excellent SL zooms—the SL 16-35 and the SL 24-90mm.
