What's in my camera bag, Norway road trip edition (2022)
in journal
This is a long one. I don't like to talk about gear because I don't want to give anyone the false impression that you need X camera or Y lens to create good images. Nor that you need the cameras I use to create images like mine!
I've used many, many cameras over the years. The style hasn't changed much, but the way I make them has.
So hopefully this video gives you an insight into why I have the cameras and lenses I have. But don't forget that I struggle with this stuff like anyone else, or even worse.
Norway keeps on giving and giving
in journal
No matter where I go, I find spectacular landscapes. Come with me on another day full of photography in this beautiful country, this time at the Helgeland Coast.
A day of photography on the road in Norway

A random day living on the road along the Norwegian coast. What a beautiful place, and what a privilege to photograph it.
Small SUV conversion ~ 3-month photography road trip across Norway living in my car
in journal
My car has been my home for several weeks now. I sleep in the car, I eat in the car, I change my clothes in the car, I work in the car, I rest in the car, I cook in the car.
This is the easy and cheap "conversion" I did to my small SUV for a 3-month long road trip across Norway. Built and designed with photography in mind.
Lofoten
in journal
Two weeks in one of the most beautiful places I've ever seen. This is the result.
My first day in Lofoten
in journal
I made it to one of the main destinations of my road trip across Norway: the beautiful Lofoten Islands.
In this video, I do a little bit of exploring at the outskirts of Lofoten. A day with challenging light for photography, but one with so much beauty all around.

Using Color in Black & White Photography
in journal
Black and White photography might lack colors, but that doesn’t mean we can’t use the colors of a scene to improve our images. In this video, I show you some examples of how tweaking with the colors made some of my photographs better.

Of course, this photograph I took of four sheep during an evening walk around town had to be part of this update. Sheep is still one of my favorite photos I've ever taken. You just never know when and where the next image will happen!

My biggest road trip yet

I'm on the road again. Big time, as I embark on a 2-month long adventure. My biggest road trip yet.
How to notice
in journal
To make good images, we need to see them first. And to see them, we need to pay attention.
My annual rant on post processing
in journal
This is a topic that keeps coming up. How far can we go with our editing? When does it stop being photography to become "digital art"? Is the digital darkroom different from the analog darkroom?
So many question, and so many different answers.
It all burned
in journal
Everything around us is ephemeral, even if sometimes it doesn't feel like it. I've taken for granted many places in the past, just to see them gone due to natural disasters; especially wildfires. A big fire burnt some of the landscapes I was photographing not even 3 months ago. Familiar spots, gone; favorite trees, burnt to the ground. But life will come back, changed.
How I use masking tools in Lightroom to make better images
in journal
Editing is a very important step in the creative process. And masking tools are some of the most powerful instruments we have in our toolbox to improve our images and bring our vision to life.

How I self-published my photo book ONE
in journal
Just over a year ago, I published my photo book ONE. Years worth of photography, and weeks of hard work summed up in one volume. It was a lot of work, and in this video, I wanted to share the whole process with all of you. We'll see how to select the images, sequence them, design the book, promote it, sell it, and ship it.
By the way, there are new copies of ONE available.
How to develop a daily photography habit (and why)
in journal
I believe that taking pictures every day is one of the best ways to improve as a photographer.
