-Who is Pelle?

Originally I am from Stockholm where I grew up in the Old Town in a picture environment. My father was an artist, an autodidact enthusiast. In 1969 I moved to Östergötland and since then I have lived and worked there. For the most part I support myself on commissioned work that comes from advertising agencies, government, [local government] and county council and so on.

-I am associated with the [Swedish Photographers Association]. An important part of my photographic work is that it is free which means that I take pictures without any buyer. The pictures can for example become exhibitions or multi-slide presentations. During the last few years I have also started to make film.

Despite all the years as an official photographer I still can feel pleasure in Photography, to be able to create pictures where the essential is not just what is on the picture but also how it was taken. My work has now become even more stimulating because I have the possibility to use my interest in making images when I am filming.
