NOR-SWE showmatch
in sportsIt’s not every day you get to photograph four Olympic gold medalists in beach volleyball battle it out on the court where you play yourself during the summer. The Norwegian Volleyball Federation decided to do a show match between Norwegian team Anders Mol / Christian Sørum (gold in Tokyo 2021) against Swedes David Åhman /…

Øyafestivalen again
in concertLike I wrote in last year’s blog post for Øyafestivalen, I decided to stop working for free at music festivals, but I went back to Øyafestivalen (as the only festival) this year. If you’re only here for the photos, head this way. Being one of the biggest music festivals in Oslo with a concept I…

I committed a wedding
Fifteen years since I photographed my sister’s wedding and promised myself I’d never do one again, I ended up shooting one. It turned out pretty nice despite barely sleeping the night before. What I do enjoy about weddings is that everyone is well dressed and in a good mood, so it’s hard not to get…

Lack of posts
in lifeI’ve been a little down these last two years. Artificial “intelligence” companies have trawled the internet for material to train their models.

Norgestour
in lifeI photographed the “Norgestour” beach volley tournament here in Oslo two weekends ago for Oslo Beach Volley Club, and it’s (as always) lots of fun.

Pipfest
Piknik i Parken (Picnic in the park), shortened to ‘Pipfest’, was my first somewhat big music festival I photographed at (back in 2017), and I’ve always wanted to come back here. It’s a nice little festival that gives picnic’y vibes where you chill below the massive trees right in the middle of Sofienberg Park in…

The Gathering 2025
Den årlige TV-aksjonen, denne gangen til Atlas-alliansen, minte meg på at jeg ikke har postet noen bilder fra The Gathering før nå, seks måneder etter arrangementet er avsluttet. To av bildene mine ble brukt til å auksjonere bort en VIP-pakke til neste års The Gathering, og det er gledelig å se at det ble solgt…

Norwegian Beach Volley Championship 2025
in sportsI was hired by Norges Volleyballforbund to photograph the Norwegian Championship in beach volleyball four weeks ago, and it was a blast as expected. Some of Norway’s highest skilled beach volleyball players gathered in Oslo for a weekend of massive spikes, huge blocks, deep digs and sandy fun. Olympic legends from Tokyo 2021, Anders Mol…

Oslo Pride 2025
in showI’ve been neglecting this blog for a few months now as I’ve been busy with work and life in general. But here’s a little bit of what happened this summer. I photographed at Oslo Pride this year as I did last year, only to be interrupted by the very rainbow friendly festival Tons of Rock…
