The small-time article about the Tage is now published on the world wide web and can be found through the following link —->>>> Tage Tage Tage (in swedish)…

And I even took the liberty to translate the whole thing into English, sounds ambitious right? Not really, I used the fantastic tool Google Translator, lovely thing.. Haha. Here goes nothing!

With an award-winning music video and many promofotograferingar in the baggage hold Tage Rönnqvist to get into an industry that is hard to crack. But any time he works with unknown bands. This tells Tage about what it takes to get a foot in the door and how to get a picture of Nikki Sixx.

- It can take up to four years before your name becomes known. You must believe in yourself and create a network of contacts, “says Tage who promofotat in three years.

He got his first compact camera 2003rd

- Then I shot the most cranberries and fucking sunsets, pictures that everyone takes. I thought it was funny and started to småning about experimenting with the light.

It is now three years since guitarist from Crystal Blaze and asked for help Tage. And that’s how it since.

- I photograph mainly småband and want to help them climb.

Anyone who thinks that any promobilder Kirre at 15 minutes is totally wrong. Two or three hours is closer to the truth.

- Sometimes I only have time to take 3 pictures, though I had wanted to take 40th Posturing technique is also a science for itself. The band members are very critical, just like everyone else. Mostly I edit the colors. To remove wrinkles, pimples and gives a false result.

Tage limit itself only to the band, this last, he has begun to RAVE for stand-up comedian. But the vast glory is live pictures. Often make up his band and asks if they want free live pictures.

- It is best if someone calls and asks for live images and pays for it, but it happens rarely. Real money is not so important.

Last Friday was Tages and Rasmus Tags music video they produced to the So Long Sisters shine a bit. It won the prize in The Voices Garage Countdown contest. For Tages Rasmus and this means that the video will be shown 25 times on the channel. More videos are in the pipeline. In January he begins work on next. At the same time he also worked with a documentary on the Sturm und Drang.

What is your best photographic memory?

- Sauna Open Air Festival this year. I was there and filmed for a documentary. Motley Crew was there and I tried again and again get past the guards to get a picture. Eventually I managed a few seconds to get a picture of bassist Nikki Sixx and Sturm und Drang.
