I started working as a model in the 80´ties. I travelled mostly in Europe, and worked in places like Copenhagen (my residence), Athens, Madrid, Barcelona, Zürich, Hamburg and Milan.
I´ve done a lot of work, both editorial and commercial. The list of customers in the fashion - and advertising business -I´ve worked for - is long. When I was at the top of my career, I worked for Emporio Armani, and did fashion shows for Valentino in Milan.
Back in Copenhagen - in the beginning of the 90´ties I picked up an interest for fashion photography, and began also as a freelance fashion photographer.
Working both as a model and fashion photographer suited me fine for awhile. I had the opportunity to work with good friends and colleagues, and make a portfolio for myself -just as I could help new models in my agency get photos for their own portfolios.
There were fine times - meeting a lot of good people, travelling - off and on - to other nearby countries, and just enjoying the ride.
A few years later - still in the beginning of the 90´ties - I stopped modelling, and only did fashion and commercial photography mainly in Copenhagen - Denmark.
I worked for Danish fashion magazines, designers and advertising companies.
