IF Insurance

Another job I did for IF with Kitchen ad agency, do you have a good insurance for your house?

Viagra

The job I did for Viagra with TBWA ad agency.

Blog Slow-Mo

Jeeez. I'm a weak ass blogger these days.
I've been working a lot and hanging out a lot.
Finished pretty big ad's for IF, Det Nytter, Viagra, Eiendomsmegler1, Samsung and Vinmonopolet. Good times workwise at least.

I'll post everything once I'm allowed. Pretty cool to know that every person buying liquor in this country the next year will se my photos.

Until then I'd like to present my newest and youngest fan, the precious Clara, daughter of my beloved friends Martin and Veronica.

Westside Yo

Smile

I want to start this week with a smile even though last week ended with grief. I got a new job from the superb agency Try, I haven't worked with them before so that's fab'. It's a really cool shoot that will end up on boards all over the place.

Medicine to a bad day;

Emotional Week

Spent almost all of last week in bed, with fever, caughing and feeling sorry for myself. Spent a lof the bedtime thinking about personal and business related issues.

Then come this weekend and I lost my beloved grandma, even though it was pretty clear that her time had come it really shooked me, she was amazing and I loved her very much. I'll miss her smile, her spirit, her sense of humour and sarcasm. Lots of love Ebba, thanks for everything. You shall not be forgotten.

Ill

I'm home with a high fever. It sucks.

Renovasjonsetaten

Some ad's I did some time back, there were some "issues" with the male model we had booked so ended up using my assistant(good for us he looks like a million dollars, at least with todays value of it, the dollar that is), then the client didn't approve the chosen picture so had to use another one etc. etc. probably not my finest moment but still. Here it is.

Reitan and photoshop

Post-prod, post-prod, post-prod.

I've finished 5 different jobs during the last three days. My shoulder hurts and my eyes has turned into squares. After today I only have one more job to finish and then I'm freeeeeee.

These are some straight forward studio-shots I did of billionaire Magnus Reitan for the danish magazine Dagbladet Børsen.

Lack of energy

I'm tired. The 12-hour day has become more of a rule than a rarity. Getting way less sleep than I need, eat junk food and when the weekends arrive I spend them with friends enjoying one beer two many instead of relaxing.

I miss Cape Town.

Visit Denmark

Not my most difficult shoot but a fun day. Can be seen as ads in most newspapers. Did a shoot for Samsung today that went very well.

Seeeeeeeeeeaguls

It seems that client is very happy with my portraits from abroad, so hopefully I'll get to travel some more in time. Yeah. They will be using 14 different portraits from the trip, and I'll post them all here once ready.

Lunch Birds

Fucking

I know, these are quite old now but still quite funny. And mondays need funny.

Week 15

Had a nice trip to Bergen thursday, shot the third portrait for the Det Nytter campaign, the fourth and last portrait I'll be doing tomorrow. Friday I shot 80(yes, that's eighty) real estate brokers. But amazingly enough we were finished before schedule, now it's only postproduction left. On wednesday I'll shoot some ads for Samsung and next tuesday I'll shoot some ads for If Insurance. That will end an extremely busy month, and hopefully I can finish my fashion portfolio and schedule some new meetings at magazines and ad agencies.

This is from my VisitDenmark shoot last week, will post the ads once they are ready.



FORZA STABÆK

New Car

I did something crazy today. I bought a car. It's a first for everything I guess. I'll most likely receive it the first week of May. It's nothing fancy thou, but for me a car is a car and I'm superstoked anyhow. It's a Citroen Berlingo in black.

I'm heading to Bergen tomorrow for a job. More flying, yeah. Did a shoot for Visit Denmark yesterday which was a funny day. Costumes and all.

This is it, only in black.

Back Home

So, I got back from my trip this weekend. And this week is also fully booked, shooting monday, tuesday, thursday and friday. Three different jobs, then most likely three shooting days next week as well. Good times I guess.
During todays shoot a film-crew from NRK followed us, so I will be on TV some time in May. Yeah.

Will make a Cape Town post one day, with the highlights from my trip. It was superb.

The Sun Sets In Africa

And now I'm heading downtown to enjoy some beers. If I don't blog the next couple of days it's probably because I'm stabbed, lying in a dumpster somewhere.

Sometimes Life Just Smiles At You

Today has been such a day. More pix will come, Cape Town kicks ass.

or the cocky version:

I make my living doing this, what do you do?

Globetrotter

Tonight I'm literally sleeping at the airport. Heading to Cape Town at 06.20 tomorrow morning. This is the view from my window.

Stockholm City

Been hangin out in Stockholm for two days now, shooting more portraits for the annual report I'm doing. Had some spare time as well checking the city out. I like it. Even though it snowed sideways for quite some time I got to see quite a bit.

Trondheim

Even though I have not blogged about him before I do as most of you know have a son in Trondheim, his name is Martin, he is 3,5 years old and is probably the coolest dude you have yet to meet. A die hard Kaptein Sabeltann fan and a talented photographer. He has inherited all my wit and charm :-) and then some so all you kindergarten chicks out there be aware.

Riga, Latvia

Some shots from my spare time in Riga, a surprisingly small city. At least the centre of it, considering 800.000 people live there. Tomorrow I'm heading to Stockholm and then to Cape Town a couple of days later.

Busy Week

This week has been quite busy with a couple of days shooting in and around Oslo, went to Riga to photograph a doctor and a trip to Trondheim. When not shooting or traveling I've basically been eating lamb and drinking beer with my good friends. I also spent some hours with Halvor a.k.a. Mr. Barsk while he was getting scarred for life.
