Originally from Denmark, Torkil Gudnanso approaches photography with a no-nonsense, Scandinavian sensibility. His style is simple and graphic. He prefers shooting in color in order to play various hues off one another. When asked to list three things he cannot live without as a photographer, his answer is appropriately succinct, light, light, and light.
As a ten year old boy, Torkil reveived his first camera, a Bolex Super-8. His first pictures were of a trip to Italy, which is where, many years later, Torkil would find his first success as an emerging fashion photographer.
Torkil's photography has appeared in Vogue, Maybelline, Pantene, MAC Cosmetics, L'Oreal, Piaget, Guerlain, Shiseido, Estee Lauder, Calvin Klein and Bergdorf Goodman.
