Backstory
As a native of Denmark he began in stunts, founding a stunt/sfx company serving Danish films & TV productions, such as Lars von Triers 'The Kingdom’. He also worked as a cameraman and editor on local TV stations in Copenhagen. Compelled to be international he moved to the UK, began shooting short films, music videos and freelancing as a camera operator in TV entertainment & news (BBC, Sky, ITV, Channel 4).
After years as a stunt performer which by now included films like Da Vinci Code & Eragon, he left the action business to pick up a light meter, solely focusing on cinematography and soon got to lens his first feature film.
