About

Photojournalist based in Tórshavn, the Faroe Islands, in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean.

Since I graduated as a photojournalist from the Danish School of Journalism in 2011, I have been working freelance for both newspapers and companies doing stills and video.

As of March 2018 I have moved to the Faroe Islands, where I now work on Kringvarp Føroya (national television) as a videographer.

If you need help with stills, video or contact to locals here on the Faroe Islands, feel free to contact me.

I am also a certified drone pilot by Trafik- og Byggestyrelsen, which enables me to deliver professionel and legal drone footage.

 

I like to meet people not being biased, but instead being open and honest. It is not difficult to confirm peoples prejudices through photography, but it is not very interesting. I enjoy telling stories and focus on social issues.

 

I have also studied 2 years to become a Multimedia Designer, working primarily with TV production, giving me a good rutine in both the recording and editing phase of a project. 

 

Feel free to contact me with questions, comments or possible assignments.
