I was born in Sweden to European parents. Our family moved to the UK when I was just three years old and I was educated in England, which is where my passion for photography began whilst studying graphic design. I spent many months in a traditional darkroom learning film exposure and photographic printing, which I incorporated into my graphics as much as possible.
After a spell gaining an art honours degree at De Montfort University, I put down my Pentax K1000 film camera in order to run a graphic design company with my business partner. After a decade of being involved in graphics and marketing my passion for landscape photography crept back and I began to spend more time out exploring nature following my photographic calling. This is around the time I was lucky to meet my wife to be April via instagram ( See here fabulous website here: photochronicle.co). Our shared love of nature, landscape photography and being outdoors lead to an international romance. After three long years of commuting between the US and UK we were married in one of our favourite coastal locations, Pacific City, Oregon! We now live with our beautiful daughter in Sussex where I spend much of my time exploring the beautiful hills and seascapes.
