I work across portrait, editorial and artist-led projects, creating images that feel intentional, atmospheric and personal.
My work sits at the intersection of art, editorial and identity-driven portraiture, blending concept and stylised lighting to create images that feel like a visual statement. Whether in the studio, on location, or through conceptual shoots, I focus on capturing presence, mood and personality. My approach is editorial in style but deeply personal in intent: each portrait is a collaboration designed to reflect who you are, not just what you look like.
Norwegian-born and raised in France, I’ve built my career in London, working primarily with artists and creatives. My work is evocative and three-dimensional, yet sensitive and authentic. Over the years, I’ve worked across the music world, art galleries, editorial publications, and cultural projects in the UK and abroad. This range means I understand how to create images that resonate in editorial contexts while staying true to your personal or artistic identity. I also lead lighting workshops, music photography masterclasses, and am one third of the band Teiger.
I work with a wide range of people who care about visual storytelling - artists, performers, and cultural figures looking for imagery that feels meaningful. This includes editorial features, album or project artwork, personal branding, and gallery or exhibition contexts. I also collaborate with brands and cultural projects who seek expressive photography that feels distinctive and artful.
I also take on a small number of live events within creative and cultural spaces. These sessions are about capturing the emotional tone of a moment - the feeling of being there. My focus remains on people, connection, and the texture of a space, seen through a portrait photographer’s eye.
