Everything has stories to tell, if someone is there to listen. My way of listening is with a camera, catching the light and creating a photograph of whatever moment that just passed by. I am a Swedish photographer alternating between Brussels, Belgium and Mörrum, Sweden, but bouncing around Europe and beyond.
I have always observed my surroundings, whether during travels to some remote location, or finding interest in my everyday environment. Concentrating on the little frame in the viewfinder removes the buzz of our fast-paced life. It is meditative and gives me peace of mind. Perhaps some of my images convey that feeling.
Genres are notoriously difficult to define. While many of my images are nature and street photography, I look for stories in the things I see. The Junkyard is neither nature nor street photography, but has an interesting story. Nautical is rather about the interplay between man-made and nature. Trees is clearly nature-oriented, but I try to capture them to entice thoughts about them.
I was a double finalist in the Swedish Photography Championship 2023, and again a finalist in 2025 in the categories of Nature - Landscape and Fine Art. I have received accolades for several more images, all of which are available to view in my portfolio.
In 2026, I will publish my first book: Stations. A collection of observations around the mundane existence of commuter travel, it falls squarely in the genre of street photography. Hopefully it tells an interesting story. It will be available for purchase shortly.

Gear
I view gear as a tool to get the job done. I am not bound to any brand, though I am shooting mainly Nikon. This is simply because my first camera with an interchangeable lens was a Nikon D3200, and since their F-mount fits decades worth of lenses and bodies, I just stuck with it. I am also not particularly bound by any specific format - unless I have something specific in mind, I shoot film just as readily as I shoot digital, 35mm, 120 or large format, and gladly mix them up in my various series. I will quietly admit that seeing a well-executed digital photo in my lightroom provides as much satisfaction as a well-exposed, well-developed and well-scanned film negative. But there is no substitute for the process in the field with film. There’s just something satisfying about the finickery when being on location with a film camera. I am lucky in that I don’t suffer from a need to have the latest greatest gear - I figure if a camera was the weapon of choice for professionals in any sphere just 20 years ago, I will never exhaust its capabilities. So my gear tends to be old generations.
Processes
Capturing the photograph is only the start of the process. As nice as it may be to see on a screen, creating a physical photograph in the form of a print is the crowning of the process. I do this in one of three ways: digital inkjet printing, whereby my image one way or another is digitized (either from the camera itself, or from scanning the negative), edited in Lightroom, and printed on archival fine art paper with archival inks. The second process is old-school darkroom printing, where I create the photograph using my enlarger. And the third way is the very old-school way of salt or platinum-palladium printing. This is a fantastically fun process, which really immerses you in the alchemy of creating photographs.
