Long story short: in DK there has been a debate about unemployment for a long time, and on online media, the tone are often really bad :/ I found a facebook page, which actually tried to change the tone which I wanted to support, as I found it awesome
The page are made by ... not an union, but something alike. Google translate doesn't have a word for it. Anyhow, I mailed the guy behind it and suggested I could do portraits for people who wanted it for their applications/resumes (for free of course), as he have a huge maillist and lots of followers on fb pages. So we made that happen. 2 weekends we did this for 4 hours, luckily 2 other photographers joined in, one pr day, and all in all, we had about 50 people through.
A journalist from a work-related paper called me for a small interview about this, so suddenly everybody knew about this, lol. A little weird.... Many were really happy about this initiative, but of course some photographers in fb groups also discussed this, I read one of the debates, luckily most understood my point in this (which aren't about doing work for free, but about doing something for those who actually struggles to find a job!). A few said, its bad for our business, when photographers do work like this, but I don't find that being the reason its hard to be a pro and get a steady income, I think that is due to everybody has their own camera, and everybody can go to youtube to learn how to use it.
This little happening, actually gave me 3 paid jobs, of course I had no intention of that, but in the end, very happy about that
So, this is a few of the images from last sunday, I am still working on the images from this saturday. Some didn't want their images posted, so its not everybody I shot.
(I think the image looks like it took on some sharpening when uploaded here, as its different on my computer, don't really know why)
