I was born in Nacka, a suburb of Stockholm, Sweden, in march 1990. I started off as a birdwatcher on my Dad's shoulders when I was just a few years old.

After a couple of years away from the birdwatching, I picked it up in March 2003. During a vacation in Egypt in 2004 I discovered that I could point my Mum's camera through my field scope to take a picture and that's where it all began.

I love shorebirds, especially the small calidris species. They are my favourite motives and I travel the world to photograph them.
