Samples from Faroe Business Report Faroe Business Report — the International Review of Faroe Islands Industry and Trade has been published yearly since 2005 and serves to highlight the Faroe Islands' industrial exports and the country's business environment. The Report is composed of different chapters, i.e. Geography (including tourism), Fisheries and Seafood Industry, Maritime and Related Industries, Business Environment, and Energy, Oil & Gas Exploration. My photos have been used for the front cover, the chapter-opening spreads, and most of the company presentations and other editorial articles. |

Samples from the seafood industry My work on the Faroe Islands (and also in lceland and Shetland) has generated considerable focus on the fisheries and seafood industry over the last couple of years. The Faroes depends heavily on exports of fresh, frozen, and salted fish. Much of this published work is from the Fisheries, Seafood Industry chapter in the Faroe Business Report. I have also worked for Faroe Seafood, the largest producer of fish products in the Faroes Islands, and the published photos show scenes from aboard the trawlers Bakur and Stelkur, as well as landing to production in several of their main filleting plants before packing for export. Last year the Ministry of Fisheries and Maritime Affairs published some of my work in their booklet Faroe Islands Fisheries and Aquaculture which can be downloaded on their website Fisk.fo. |

Samples from media I take assignments that range from photojournalism through PR and corporate advertising. My career has included work for e.g. Swedish newspapers and magazines including Svenska Dagbladet, Göteborgs-Posten, Allers, and Aftonbladet. In the Faroe Islands, for instance, I have freelance for the two major daily newspapers there, Dimmalaetting and Sosialurin. Assignments have ranged from cultural events and entertainment to corporate environments and portraits. |

Samples: brochures and ad campaigns My assignments have included some features on health and fashion and a couple of years ago fashion designer Ivanka Percan from Malmoe/Copenhagen hired me to highlight her work in a fashion catalog. Another example of fashion and studio work was the Swedish fashion and entertainment magazine Nöjesnytt featuring spring fashion for kids, families, and youth -- at work and at leisure. A completely different example of an assignment was Faroese transport company Faroe Ships’s use of a 12-pack Image-PRime solution for ad campaigns. Image-PRime is an all-inclusive concept that covers everything from planning to photo sessions to delivery of high-resolution digital royalty-free pictures. |
