Kite group - #2 of 5+2 AP Photograph - Limited Edition of 5

As a visual storyteller, I approach photography with a deep reverence for the beauty and complexity of the world around us. Since 2007, I’ve had the privilege of capturing fleeting moments and preserving them in a way that allows others to see the world through my eyes—through both the intimacy of personal experience and the lens of broader social and environmental issues. With two bachelor’s degrees from the Queensland College of Art in Australia, my practice is grounded in a formal understanding of composition, light, and design. However, my true passion lies in exploring the emotional and narrative potential of each image. My work spans a wide spectrum, from commercial projects to intimate portrayals of Norwegian celebrities, yet it is the personal projects that resonate most deeply with me. These works have found their way into exhibitions in Oslo, London, and New York, where I aim to evoke a sense of reflection and connection in the viewer. At the heart of my photography is an exploration of the relationship between people and their environments. Whether capturing the quiet beauty of a shared moment between individuals or highlighting the fragile beauty of nature, I strive to bring attention to the often overlooked details of our daily lives. In a world that frequently leans into negativity, my work is a celebration of the positive—the subtle, fleeting moments that remind us of the beauty we must preserve, both within ourselves and in the world around us. In addition to the contemplative and serious aspects of my practice, I also seek out humor in everyday life. I believe that life, with all its challenges, is also filled with moments of joy and absurdity—if you know where to look. Finding humor in the ordinary is, for me, a way to appreciate life’s lighter side and remind us that, even in the most unexpected places, there is room for laughter. Through my work, I aim to inspire a renewed appreciation for the moments and spaces that shape our lives, whether they are poignant, humorous, or quietly beautiful. I hope to encourage a mindful reflection on the impact we have on the world and one another, while also celebrating the joy that comes from seeing the humor and lightness in the everyday.
