This past week I spent a couple of days shooting with Emma Fexeus in beautiful Copenhagen. We had the pleasure of staying at the amazing Stay Copenhagen hotel.

Portraits of Afteroom.
A couple of weeks ago I was commissioned by Residence Magazine to shoot a portrait of the upcoming design duo Afteroom. We had a great time shooting in their studio and here are a few picks from our session. Out now in issue 06/14.

Professor Johan Rockström.
Outtake from a photo shoot I did a couple of months ago for Stockholm Resilience Centre. This was an assignment from my photo agency Azote. I shot press photos and staff portraits and I particularly like this one of Professor Johan Rockström.

Icelandic landscapes.
About a month ago I went to Iceland on an editorial assignment and to gather material for an upcoming project, together with Emma. The days were quite busy but we managed to get half a day off to go explore the beautiful country side. And the people driving the 4WD was the lovely couple behind the Home & Delicious blog, Gunnar and Halla. Thanks guys for showing us the sweet spots!

Shooting furniture for Scandinavian Wood.
I know it’s not a very good excuse but I’ve been quite busy since the last post. And I’m also finally in the process of creating a real website with themed galleries and such. But in the mean time I’m gonna try and blog about what I’ve been up to lately and first up is this product shoot for newcomer Scandinavian Wood.
Good luck guys!

DRY Things.
Last week, Emma Fexeus and I visited Dry Creative Projects in their beautiful studio. They also run a webshop with an exquisite mix of great prints and carefully selected handmade stuff under the name DRY Things. These are a few of all the photos I shot during our visit.
Thanks a lot to Jenny and Johan for letting us roam freely and moving people around while they where busy creating nice things.
For all the magazine editors out there, let me know if you’re interested in this feature and I’ll send you a contact sheet.

Kitchen for Lantliv.
These photos are from the magazine Lantliv, issue 2/2014. The excellent styling was made by Cia Wedin and her assistent Sanna Mattson. I would also like to thank my assistent, and fellow photographer Mariette Svensson for a job well done.

The Gabucci store.
Back in september I shot the italian menswear store Gabucci together with stylist and journalist Cia Wedin for blogzine Scandimood. We documented the store and also interviewed the owner Bob and the interior architects that also made much of the furniture, Broberg & Ridderstråle. These photos are a mixture of picks and outtakes.
Happy Holidays!

Landet Järna portrait.
My photos from Landet Järna have been spread all over the world by now. Both on blogs and in printed magazines, and I’m very thankful and a bit shocked about all the attention. So this week I went back to take a portrait of the owners, Johanna and Maria. You guys run a unique and beautiful business!
