transformationn of Mynh-Ly
shoot in Dec 23 with Minh_ly in her apartment in Antwerp. In this blog I like to show the versatility of Mynh-Ly: from a vintage geisha style towards art nude. in justa couple of hours she knows to create very different personalities. See the complete set at www.benernst.nl
una giornata particulare
location shoot, with Ilvy Kokomo. Location has a 50ies atmosphere, remebered me at the Italian , French movies of this period. Ilvy is like Sophia Loren in the first image.
Ana, boulevard of beauty
shoot with Ana (@anato_mo) at the boutique hotel : boulevard leopold in Antwerp. The versatile posing of Ana fits perfect in the eclectic ( art deco)interior of the location
meeting Mariette
Mariette and i know each other for years. We dont live close: Mariette in Canada and I in the Netherlands. We didnt work together that much, but for me these meetings (and shoots) were very special.
Beginning of this year Mariette was visiting her family in Paris, so we had contact to meet eachother again.
we met in a park outside Paris early morning to shoot outdoor and later in her mothers house, between the art.
love me and leave
remote, duo shoot with Aleksandra and Julia. Organised and assisted by Svetlana Frolikova ( shootparty) Location is an abandoned factory in Prague.

Ben Ernst is a self-taught photographer based in the Netherlands with over forty years’ experience in photography
Ben Ernst's working process is very fluid. First, he conceives a concept and then finds a location and model to help achieve his vision. He prefers to work with models with an artistic background, such as actors and dancers. Mainly due to their abilities in portraying a wide range of emotions and posing fluidly with ease. Traveling models also bring stories and their curiosity informs Ernst’s creativeness. His preferred equipment includes a Sony A7 III, Canon 5D, 6D with 50mm, 85mm, 24-70mm, 70-200mm lenses, as well as Sigma 35mm Art and Sigma 17-40.
The selection of a shooting site is a vital step in Ben Ernst’s artistic process. A location allows him to tie in together the relationship between the model and photographer. And, the perfect setting, either indoors or outdoors, allows for such connection to come through in the resulting images. Ernst and his wife often open their house for the models to stay in, as they often travel from abroad. By having the models visit a couple of days or even longer, he can build a genuine relationship with them. His photographs capture honesty uniquely and highlight the trust built by working together.
