This gallery do as the name indicate contain flower shots. It’s a “dynamic” gallery, meaning I’ll be updating it with more images over time. The oldest stuff is from 2009 and the latest, such as the one illustrating this post, from this spring. I plan do to more macro and near-macro work on flowers, plants and bugs this summer. We’ll see how that plan turns out. Yet another photographic discipline to “get into” ;) Click image for more!

A while ago I was approached and asked to create an ad for a conference on Cochlear Implant (CI), which is basically an artificial ear that can give some hearing back to a deaf person. My “client” was the place where I work. I took the photo and also designed the ad in various versions, for instance posters, half-size for magazines, web use, programs, info brochures and what not.

My friend actually have one of these implants and was the perfect model. The shot itself was made in my home “studio” with a two-speedlight setup, one through an umbrella, other one through a blue gel on a black background. Black backgrounds have the advantage that it will pick up much of the color of the light that shines on them. Hence, the background is actually real and not made in photoshop, although I made it somewhat smoother in post.

I must admit it’s delightful to see some of one’s work in print, even if for a very specialized purpose such as this. The below version is the landscape version of the halv-page ad that ran in “Din Hørsel” – “Your Hearing”, the magazine of the Norwegian Association for The Hard of Hearing. The magazine prints in about 55 000 copies and is widely distributed amongst the hard of hearing in Norway.

I guess you could say this is my first half-arsed photo project. A study on the lives of trash cans…or, not entirely ;)

I’m fascinated by things that are not where they are supposed to be. The tiny cracks in the leather, or the, if you will, splatted bug on the polished façade. Things that makes you wonder “how on earth did it get there”, “who did this” and so forth. Some might call it the decay of values and proclaim the arrival of doom, others will say that our cities and societies have likely always been like this as soon as they grow beyond a certain size. Click image for more!

A selection of photos from a recent shoot I did for my workplace, a school and resource center for the hard of hearing. The material is intended for promotional use, on websites, brochures and similar. The models are students. Click image for more!

Decided to do something new. I’ll briefly mention new photo galleries in a regular post on my blog too. Tge photo galleries are kind of hidden away as pages ;) This one here is from the (in)famous Geiranger fjord in western Norway. Striking views on a day that turned out better than we feared.
