One of my assignments for school was a reproduction from a photo made by a famous photographer. Because Erwin Olaf is my all-time favourite photographer I decided to chose one of his works to reproduce. I chose a photo from the serie Paradise portraits.

Below on the left side the original made by Erwin Olaf and on the right my photo. I was very lucky to have the help of Godard Koremans, he is a make-up artist. Without him it wouldn't even been possible to make this reproduction. My brother Martin Groen was the model.

I'm very satisfied alltough the looks of the both models aren't perfectly similar. The grime and the lightning is similar. It was a very fun thing to do. Thanks Godard and Martin for your cooperation :)
