My walk to the Office

Oslo is beautiful these days. Early autumn, sunny days, crisp mornings. I walk past the castle and Slottsparken in the morning, and it is such a nice walk!

♥ Falling in Love in front of my Lens ♥

These two did :)
This is the story.... A few months ago I photographed a few of the musicians attending the Military Tattoo in Oslo. I hoped it would turn into a nice feature, but I had too little time. But one REALLY nice thing came out of it! Cause I photographed these two, Joke and Josquin, from Belgium. They joked around and were fun to photograph (although technically these pictures are pretty crap - my bad).

Some weeks later they write me to tell me that they fell in love there and then and have now moved in together :) And I am so happy I could contribute! Here they are - in the moment of "falling" ♥♥♥

Aftenposten Junior - over 10 000 subscribers!

We've been going for less than 5 months, and have now reached 10 000 subscribers, as well as more than 10 000 weekly readers, who buy the paper in the shops every week. The goal was 10 000 by the end of the year, so we're pretty happy!

I'm so pleased that we manage to make a newspaper for children that they actually enjoy reading, where we're teaching them important issues such as the financial crisis, the US election, the situation in Syria, Egypt, on China, pirates in Somalia, etc etc. As well as inspiring stories about kids themselves. What's going on in their world? What inspires them?

I love working with it, and my role as reportasjeleder (don't know what that is in english, perhaps "assistant editor"?). It really enjoyable working on a project that people appreciate, do something that feels important, and hang out with kids.

Here's a few pix :)

Let them Eat Lobster, NYC

In august Espen and I went to NYC for a week. My cousin A-S and my friend Andrea were both so kind to let us stay with them. To say thank you, we made a decadent lobster-dinner in return, in Andrea's apartment! A fantastic meal, which started with a venture down to china-town.
