Berlin & summer

They say that good things comes to good people but that is just bullshit, life is never fair and never will be. It doesn't matter if you have decided to not do to others what you don't want them to do to you, people will still treat you like shit now and then. I'm just understanding that this is the way it will always be and sadly there ain't nothing I can do about it...except for trusting my intuition more in the future. So what do you do when your own city makes you blue, when you feel the need to escape? You get on a plane to Berlin and live in the now. I just came home from 5 beautiful days full of sunshine, dear friends, deep conversations, baths in lakes, great culture, cheap and tasty food and cocktails, new interesting people and a lot of chilling and partying. The days went by so fast, I didn't have time to meet all the people that I wanted to and I felt a bit empty when I arrived in Malmö. I would not want to live in any other place in Sweden but sometimes I wonder if this is the place for me, if there will ever be a place that feels like home. My dream is to travel and take pictures, to get new experiences and never feel like I am standing still. I was born this way, it's my nature and it's not always easy. I'm grateful for many many things in my life but my hunger keeps my stomach empty...

Safe (Self portrait)


It's been so long
Since I've given you away
And every day I add another stone
To the walls I built around you
To keep you safe

Because when forgetting there is only one direction to go...forward

After the storm (Self portrait)

I believe that the best photographs I take are the once that tells a story that people can connect to. I'm constantly battling myself on how personal I should get in my work. I have no problems showing my naked body because it's just a shell, it will change, what's hard is to show what happens underneath.  Sometimes I feel like I'm two persons, one who wants to tell the world everything I experience, show my weaknesses and one person who wants to keep everything hidden and keep a strong facade. What I love about photography is that it allows me to be both. This image of myself being washed up upon land is highly personal but at the same time you don't know the story behind it. My photographs will not change the world, they will not be important in the long run but for me it's a wonderful way of
processing the events in my life.


I'm glad they also liked it at Photo Vogue

Another one for Lifestyle Mirror

Just found out that another one of my photos got published in the online fashion magazine Lifestyle Mirror, based in NY. It's very cool but I just wished they could have spelled my name correctly...

A wreath of flowers

One of the best things about living with my longtime friend/muse is that we can do spontaneous photoshoots.Yesterday evening the light was crazy beautiful so we got on our bikes and went down to the seaside. I made a wreath of the white flowers we got from our friend Vigge and I decided Mi should wear a black dress. Even if it's summer I find myself drawn towards a more dark and gloomy feeling, it's just more who I am at the moment...

Some kind of Frankenstein




I feel like I'm some kind of Frankenstein,
waiting for a shock to bring me back to life
but I don't want to spend my time waiting for lightning to strike. 
cause I'm like a princess in a castle high waiting for a kiss to bring me back to life 
but i don't want to spend my time waiting for just another guy

 A girl, a boy and a graveyard, Jeremy Messersmith

Asti

The first time I photographed Asti she was so tiny, sleeping in the arms of my sister. This was 10 years ago and she is just growing more and more beautiful. Just as much as I like photographing her she likes to have her photo taken. I dress her in my own clothes, or as in this case my grandmother's dress from the 50s. Almost all of the photoshoots with Asti have taken place in the big forrest that surrounds my parents house in the Swedish countryside. Even if it's getting more and more distant I'm still remembering when I was a child and playing at the places I'm now returning with my camera. I miss those childhood years, I miss how easy life was, I miss summer breaks and I miss those little things like waking up in the morning by the sound of my mother making breakfast. At every waking moment I was obsessing over horses and spending countless hours in the stable, boys were not important and I didn't know what it meant to have a broken heart. I had a wonderful childhood and I'm forever grateful for the experiences and things my parents have given me.
