I am Lave – a lifestyle/commercial photographer & director in the automotive field, based in Sweden, working worldwide with or without my creative network. We operate within photography, film, CGI and creative concepts.

I allow myself to be captivated by the intricate patterns in a concrete foundation, by ancient ceramic mugs from Transylvania, and by speckled, tightly compressed guitar distortion – rough over slick any day. At the same time, I embrace a kind of perfectionism, and my daily quest revolves around finding the subtle balance between these two extremes.

I pursue the feeling of freedom as I glide along a desolate country road on my motorcycle, when I carve down untouched snow slopes on my snowboard, or when I frame subjects and movements through the lens of my camera. Adrenaline pulses in harmony with deep breathing exercises to solfeggio frequencies.

I welcome change and development as a constant philosophy of life, and my thoughts always revolve around the next big adventure.
