First, awesome that you're here and reading this. If you don't know me, I grew up on skateboards and bikes and beaches in southern California, in a cozy little suburban corner of LA. But now, as the denouement of my existence is temporally much nearer than is my genesis, nearly half my life has been lived in various parts of southern Sweden.
Me and my chatbot spent a million and a half hours making this website from scratch. TLDR: WordPress, NOPE, html and distinct elements for mobile and desktop and a ton of other shit under the hood that will all surely break at some point, further promoting my premature senility. Please use the contact form - which does indeed work - to let me know of any issues you encounter, or just say hi or whatever.
And the photos: they're a much, much higher resolution at the printer than on here on this site, basically to keep your page load times reasonable. All the shotgun sweden pictures are digital photos taken by me in aug/sept 2025, mostly from the inside of a car while riding shotgun. Yeah I edited many of them quite a bit, for colors, which many of you will hate. I welcome your hatred. But another TLDR: I have some color blindness and this is how I like them.
That being said, I generally don't edit my film photos much, if at all. Digital photos almost require it, but film is magic to me, and it feels kind of dirty to digitally alter it very much. I scan all negatives myself, I develop all my BW film myself, and develop some of my color film myself. I'm starting this site with only the postcards of digital photos for a couple of reasons, mainly affordibility.

The film prints will be a mix of unnumbered open editions, limited editions, and possibly unique prints (one-of-ones). Absolutely get in touch with me if you have any interest in any photo of mine you see; we could most likely get a print made. I would prefer of course to make my own prints, that's just infeasible at the moment, thus the print house.
Verbosity over brevity.
See ya out there, in the infinite.
