About Me

Hey all. I'm a hard working photographer and director. Based out of Norway, I travel extensively in my work, and are truly blessed being able to do what I do best for a living. I hope you take time to check out the samples of my photography, and more videos will be posted shortly. If you want to learn more, be sure to stop by my site, just click on the logo right underneath here.

My second video, for Norwegian rockers Surferosa

A boys day out, we had plenty of fun with cars, choppers, chicks and fireworks.
Oh man, I wanna do more of those soon..

And here's my two first commercials for Norwegian opticians "Brilleland". I'm never bored working with the gorgeous Lauren Gold. You might have seen her as the DJ in Robbie William's excellent "Rock DJ"-video.

My latest video, for Aleksander With
inspired by 20's-30's burlesque vaudeville and a young Nick Cave
and some other dark stuff lurking around in my wine-cellar....
