Pontus Munewari.
Pontus stop by the studio last night to set up the winter schedule for his appointments, so I took the chance to get his shirt out the way and took some really beautiful shoots of his on going munewari project in b&w with my Leica.
Pontus it’s been a dedicated client for years, we do regularly sittings every month for about 2 hours each session, the same way that some of the Japanese Masters used to work, tattooing they clientele few times a week for about 45 minutes each session. This may surprise to many people but working like that give the client the opportunity to learn about his own pain tolerance, its also help the client to not get too scary or too exhausted after every single session in what’s usually ends up with the client leaving the projects uncompleted.
