Photography in Oslo — and wherever the story goes
Choosing a photographer can be hard, especially since very few advertise their prices online. So here they are.
Around 8 000 kr
for a half-day shoot, VAT included
A bit over 10 000 kr
for a half day, excluding VAT
The price depends on usage rights, specific requirements and the scope of the project. I generally don't work for free, but I give discounts to NGOs, non-profits and great creative projects, and on follow-up sessions if you want something documented over time.
If the price feels steep, get in touch anyway. As a self-employed photographer I set aside money for tax, VAT, insurance, pension, and the equipment and archive that keep the work going.

Questions
Where are you based and where do you work?
I'm based in Oslo and work mostly in Oslo and the surrounding region. I travel for assignments in the rest of Norway and abroad.
Which languages can you work in?
Norwegian, English and French. I grew up in France and live in Norway, so I'm comfortable with French-speaking clients, guests and interviewees.
What does a shoot cost?
A half-day shoot for a private client is typically around 8 000 kr. For businesses it tends to be a bit over 10 000 kr, depending on usage rights and scope. NGOs, non-profits and creative projects can get a discount.
You're also a paramedic — how does that work with bookings?
I work shifts in an ambulance in Oslo, so I plan photo assignments around my rota. Get in touch early and I'll find a date that works.
Can you photograph in hospitals, clinics or emergency settings?
Yes. As a working paramedic I understand clinical environments, patient privacy and how to stay out of the way when it matters.
