My Philosophy of Life
I want to spend my time on things that truly matter to me.
I choose people over possessions.

My Turnaround
My Photographic Approach
A few years ago, the pieces finally fell into place. Until then, I had simply been taking pictures of the people I met and the things I saw. My photos were merely records, without any real connection. This led to an existential crisis in my photography career, where I tried to understand the meaning of it all. Why was I taking pictures? What did I want to achieve with them?
I realized that the most important thing for me was to tell stories through my pictures. I wanted to create compelling images that tell stories about us as humans and our natural environment.
My portrait sessions, wedding sessions, and so on are therefore not just documentation. They are vivid visual narratives about people and the events in their lives.
Photographer, Eskil Frøding
