WHEN REWILDING MEANS BURNING EVERYTHING TO THE GROUND…
“I didn’t rewild my business because I wanted a rebrand. I rewilded it because it started to feel like something I didn’t recognise anymore. Like something that had been made palatable. Sharpened down to fit inside someone else’s idea of what a photography business should be. I am my business, and as I was untaming myself, I had to do the same to my business. One cannot be free without the other. “
I WENT QUIET
“What followed was unlike anything.
It was an unravelling of my identity.
I thought I was just going to have a bit of an identity crisis when I moved. It was only natural.
What I didn’t know was that everything I believed in, stood for, and wanted for myself, was about to fall apart…and I was the one actively, purposely burning it to the ground.
Everything I had fought so hard to achieve was no longer important. “
Jeg fotograferede stemmen fra min barndom!
“Jeg fik lov til at fotografere stemmen fra min barndom.
Du kender den godt… eller jeg ville blive voldsomt overrasket, hvis du ikke gør. Den har formet flere generationer af børns minder og bringer varme og smil til alle aldre. Den sidder i kroppen på den der helt særlige og fuldstændigt fantastiske måde, du aldrig rigtigt glemmer. Vi citerer omkring jul, og når det regner... og når kylling er lidt irriterende. Bamses stemme.“
Five Reasons an In-Home Portrait Session Might Be Exactly What You Need
“There’s something subtle and powerful about being photographed in your own space.
It’s not just about convenience or avoiding traffic. Not about glitzy lights and big bright spaces. It’s about comfort. About presence. About allowing the place you live to hold you as you allow me to photograph you.”
Why I Left, and Why I Came Back
“Growing up in Denmark taught me not to be afraid of becoming ill or to fear deep poverty. I grew up with trust in my fellow humans and in society as a whole. It made me resilient, fearless, but at times somewhat gullible. Coming to the US shifted all of my perspectives, and in order to survive in my new country, I had to adapt. Fully…”
Editorial Portraits That Reflect Who You Are - Not Just How You Look
“Portraits are more than just images, they are windows into our souls, reflections of who we truly are beneath the surface. When done right, a portrait can be a transformative experience, a way to connect deeply with yourself and embrace the many layers that make you, you
What moves me is what lives beneath the surface; the quiet truths, the subtle shifts, the parts of ourselves we’re not always used to showing.”
I Still Get Nervous
“You’d think after all these years it would settle. That the experience, the consistency, the experience, the feedback would quiet that part of me. But the truth is, it hasn’t, and I honestly doubt it ever will.
Because the work I do isn’t mechanical. It’s not about lighting ratios or technical perfection. It isn't about the pretty picture or an alternate reality.
It’s about people. About being seen. And that never, ever feels small…on the contrary. “
Why I Prioritise Emotion Over Perfection in Every Portrait Session
“I want the people I photograph to feel something when they see themselves. Not just “I look nice,” but a deeper sense of recognition. A quiet moment of awe. That feeling of, this is me, and I’m worth seeing.
That’s why I keep my process grounded in ease. It’s why I approach my sessions with softness and space, rather than pressure or performance.
Because I know what we’re up against.”
5 Ways to Prepare for Your Portrait Session
“Let’s be honest, getting in front of the camera can feel vulnerable.
Even the decision to book a portrait session can stir up nerves or self-doubt. In a world full of filtered images and pressure to look a certain way, it’s easy to feel like we have to be “ready” before we deserve to be seen.
But that’s not true. You don’t have to look or feel perfect. You just have to show up.”
HOW I ACHIEVE AUTHENTIC PORTRAITS EVERY SINGLE SESSION!
“We sat there, talking through where we had gone, what she had experienced, and she expressed her deep, immense gratitude.
For her, not only would she have these beautiful portraits of herself forever, but she also told me how she would always remember our day together. The time we spent exploring who she was becoming. Feeling out the vibe and seeing where it brought us. The deepest, most beautiful results of co-creation. ”
FROM MODEL TO PHOTOGRAPHER
When I started modelling, I wasn’t chasing confidence. I was chasing proof. I needed to see myself through someone else’s eyes, because mine had been trained to distort. The camera didn’t feel safe, but it felt like a way out. A way to be rewritten. If I were receiving money to do a job I was chosen for because of my looks, then all the words, all the shame and hate, couldn't possibly be true. It was something objectively true…and THAT was something I could hold on to.”
What If The Portrait Experience Was a Ritual of Self-Discovery?
“But what if we viewed the creation of portraits as a ritual? An exploration of the inner being.
A welcome to what wants to come out?
What if it is the funeral rites of the person you used to be?
Or the baptism of the person you are becoming?
What if, the single act of allowing yourself to be seen in a safe space while documenting your becoming, your power, your transition, is one of the most powerful, personal rituals out there?”
