Mother
I shot these two images by the beach in Alicante in 2017. Me and my mother took a sheet (borrowed it from the hostel… lucky there was a washing machine in the room!) and tried different poses and angles with the sheet. I think I like the first one most, because of the colors and […]
Easter tulips shot in front of a window
Yesterday I was really inspired to shoot. But I didn´t know what to shoot. I knew I wanted to do something related to easter. I was lucky enough to have fresh flowers at home (from a friend that had just stayed the night at my place.) I decided to shoot the flowers with window light […]
Inspirational lecture at Skellefteå museum

My friend and colleague Victoria Söderström lives and works in Skellefteå and has been a part of the photo club of Skellefteå. They reached out to ask if we were interested […]

Behind the scenes and speed edit of a staged self portrait
I made a behind the scenes video for my self portait ”Imagine a bird”. This is the final image. I also used some yarn, but as you can see in the movie I decided to make the image without it. First test shoot!
Step by step images from ”To the moon and back”
A step by step guide from my creation of ”To the moon and back”. It was a magical evening with beautiful light, and me and my mother (to the left in the picture) ran over the field, while I used my remote to take pictures. I didn´t know what we were running towards, but later […]
Behind the scenes movie
Here is a little movie from a beautiful day of shooting. This day I went out in the forest, location scouting and shooting a staged self portrait. I used some baby powder to create a smoky effect in the image. The images you see in the end are unedited images. Music “Muscle memory” by Myndra […]
