About me
As a photographer and filmmaker, I’m always looking for the documentary expression. The naked, truth. My photo studio is the backyards, the side alleys, the old houses and the people who live their lives, a little in the shadow of the big media outlets, those who have a unique story to tell but who very few have been interested in.
It’s my absolute conviction that the best stories are right outside your door and what drives me is the challenge of capturing the moments for the course of history.
Being able to tell a story through pictures is my passion. The monochromatic photography is my expression. To come close, search for sincerity and truth, my only desire.
Born and raised in Sweden, I live and work today high up in the mountains in Norway, close to the Swedish border.
