Director of Photography

Cinematographer based in Stockholm, Sweden — working anywhere stories lead me. I’m here for the process — the quiet moments, the honest collaboration, the way light can shift a feeling. I believe in stillness, tension, beauty, and collaboration — building trust on set, that’s where the magic starts. every project is a chance to grow.

My work starts with observing, then slowly becomes its own truth. I’m always searching, adjusting, learning. each frame is a small attempt at understanding the world a little better. I like long conversations, imperfect light, and moments that breathe. Filmmaking to me is about people. the images just follow and I wouldn’t trade this life for anything.

Come take a look behind the scenes at how we managed to build our story last summer - under a tight schedule and with limited resources, making almost all the effects in-camera, using just a little imagination and pure creative force. I’m so happy to have this BTS-film - it really warms my heart and reminds me of everyone’s hard work and how much fun we had together!

To everyone who brought The Mare to life - I’m going to say it again: Thank you for creating with us, for your talent, heart, and belief in this strange little idea. This project lit a fire in me and quite literally changed my brain chemistry forever. I couldn’t have asked for a braver, kinder, or more visionary team to share this ride with.
