q: What got you into photography?

q: You recently traveled around Central America, what were some of the highlights?
a: I loved all of the countries I’ve visited, but in Mexico everything was beautiful. The cities, the countryside, Maya-ruins, beaches, people.
The language school in Guanajuato where I took Spanish lessons for a month was great, and one day I hope to be able to speak Spanish...

q: You’ve photographed many live shows, which one in recent memory was the best experience?
a: Cage The Elephant, definitely! I’ve always knew they put on a really good show, but I had to see it with my own eyes. I packed my stuff and went to Paris to see them - probably one of the best ideas I’ve ever had! Matt Schultz (lead singer) is insane! Esben...

San Francisco, USA.
q: You document a wide range of events, from spontaneous street shots to war-stricken Uganda. How do you use photography to tell a story?
a: Photography for me has evolved into being more and more about people. That’s a bit unfortunate, because I’m not the most outgoing person, but it’s definitely the driving factor in my work. People and the lives they live are...

q: Your photographs capture a spontaneous youthful energy, what usually goes through your head when taking a shot?
a: Not a great deal really, as you said my photographs are spontaneous. I tend to just document the moment that’s unveiling it’s self before me, although sometimes I’ll wait for that moment to come to light.
q: Who are the people that...

q: Your series “Fragments” has a minimalistic/abstract feel to it, what were you trying to capture?
a: I locked myself in a room once and experienced a certain state of consciousness, in which I could basically perceive objects as having individuality and sound. If you place yourself in a quiet...

Adelaide, Australia. 1991.
q: Favorite photographers?
a: Cecil Beaton, Annie Leibovitz, Hedi Slimane, but I’m definitely more captivated by their more private, diary-type images than their fashion/beauty photographs. I love seeing other peoples photographs and being able to peer into a portion of their life, or into their personalities, to be revealed something a bit more meaningful...

q: In your series “wintergraphik” you experiment yarn and geometric shapes,
what’s the idea behind it?
a: I always liked geometric shapes. I just took yarn to create them because I found it more interesting and beautifull then pencil or something else. The general idea behing this work is to make a step beyond photography. I’ve been taking...
