I am a professional nature photographer who lives in Vadsø. It is a small town in the eastern part of Finnmark, the northernmost county in Norway.

I get my inspiration form the arctic nature, frost and arctic night, northern light and the midnight sun. My main interest is nature- and landscape photography, but I also take other photos occasionally. On your request I'll shoot almost everything.

I sell photographs for commercial use (magazines, books, brochures, calendars, cards etc.). I also make enlargements and exhibit some selected photos. They are available for sale, in various techniques and sizes.

For the tenth year in a row, I have made a calendar. It's a magnificent product with large colour photos that describes the special arctic light in my part of the world.
 I have also made two photo books; “Out of the blue” (available in Norwegian or English) and “Kyst” (Coast. Norwegian text only)
