The fine folks from Hasselblad have shared with us their latest endeavor and they selected Bjrn Ceder to document Tennis Against Corona, an aid initiative to support those heavily affected by the pandemic organized by Stockholm Open, the worlds oldest Association of Tennis Professionals indoor tournament. Bjrn is a Swedish photographer and a creative director 25 years of experience in the industry. For Stockholm Open, Bjrn had the honor to photograph the worlds second-best ranked brothers in male professional tennis, Mikael and Elias Ymer, competed head to head in the Royal Tennis Hall in Stockholm. We shared the images below, check it out.
In their words
I didnt want this to be a regular sports shoot. I decided to use super wide lenses to do the wide shots of the match to let the architecture speak. For everything else, I used telephoto lenses and straight angles to work against creating typical sports photography shots, Bjrn
