About me
I am a photographer focused on food photography and styling, as well as product photography. Prior to moving to the UK, I held the position of Studio Manager and Senior Photographer in Brandbank Copenhagen. In this role, I managed all studio logistics, as well as the schedules for all permanent and freelance photographers. Additionally, I shot anywhere between 40 to 70 products per day, building special light rigs for certain products where needed. I am proficient in Adobe Photoshop CC, Lightroom and Capture One Pro editing softwares. In 2016, I received the accolade of highly commended photographer in the Marks & Spencer food portraiture category of The Pink Lady Food Photography awards, and have more recently been announced as a finalist for the Intercontinental Park Lane food at the table category of the Pink Lady Food Photographer of the Year, 2017. My freelance client list includes Park Hyatt Dubai, Hyatt Regency Dubai Creek, 56 Grader restaurant, Copenhagen, Chef Thomas Abbey Berdale, Copenhagen, At Viro’s Blog, Copenhagen, Rafaat Food Truck, Copenhagen, Just Eat, Archibald London, The Lanesborough Hotel and POD Food Ltd. . My most recent project was photographing and food styling a cookbook which is scheduled to be released in March 2018 entitled Empowering Women Through Cooking- Recipes from Jordan.

    Highly Commended for the Marks & Spencer food portraiture categoryPink Lady Food Photographer of the Year Awards
    Images of food that are good enough to eat. And ready to eat, whatever it may be – a plate of crisp whitebait, a soufflé trembling and piping hot, a steaming bowl of soup with home-made bread, an oozing slice of cream cake on a napkin, a bacon sandwich, roast Sunday lunch.
