A LITTLE ABOUT ME

Biography

Welcome to my photography world.

I am a Swedish photographer based in the beautiful regions of Värmland and Närke. My passion for photography began in the heart of nature, where my countless hikes through the Scandinavian and American mountains ignited my love for capturing the world around me. It’s in the quiet forests, rugged terrains, and sweeping landscapes that I found both my purpose and my inspiration.

For me, photography is about more than just an image—it’s about the interplay of light and shadow, the moments of contrast where the magic happens. I’m drawn to the simplicity and beauty of the natural world, and it’s through this lens that I explore the deep connection between humanity, nature, and our place in the universe.

I’ve always believed in living simply, and my work reflects this ethos. Each photograph is a reflection of the serenity I find in the wild, a tribute to the timeless beauty of our surroundings and the profound connection we share with them.

ABOUT MY PROCESS

My Work

My journey as a photographer began in the woods, but it didn’t stop there. I eventually stepped into the world of real estate photography, where I discovered a new way to capture spaces. I’m drawn to the beauty of natural light, but I also master the art of using external flashes to ensure each shot delivers the perfect balance, highlighting the essence of the space with precision and clarity.

With a background as a chef, photographing restaurants and hotels feels like a natural extension of my work. I have an intimate understanding of the fast-paced, sometimes chaotic environment of a kitchen, and I’m fascinated by the contrast between the intensity of the kitchen and the beauty of the dishes that emerge from it, crafted with nothing but love. This unique perspective allows me to capture not just the food, but the spirit of the place—the atmosphere, the craftsmanship, and the people behind it.

In food photography, I embrace a blend of techniques—capturing the vibrant colors and textures of food, the ambiance of the environment, and the character of the people who make it all happen. Each element is a story waiting to be told, and this fusion of skills and passion continually inspires my work.

WHAT TO EXPECT

My flow 

I believe in the power of natural light to bring out the true essence of a space, product, or experience. By using as much natural light as possible, I aim to create images that feel authentic, capturing the warmth and character of your home, restaurant, or product in the most flattering way.

Working closely with you, I combine your vision with my photographic expertise to craft images that not only showcase your space but also highlight its unique selling points. Whether it's through a thoughtful consultation or a hands-on shoot, the goal is always to create the most compelling and impactful visuals for you.

For me, photography is more than just a transaction—it’s about building a long-term relationship based on trust, clear communication, and a shared creative vision. I value personal connections and take the time to understand the heart of your business. If you're looking for a down-to-earth photographer who sees the uniqueness in every project, I’d love to work with you to bring your vision to life.
