Håkon Borgen

Bio

My name is Håkon Borgen (born in 1993). I reside in Ørland Municipality, a stone's throw from Trondheim.

I am a professional photographer, educated at the Norwegian School of Photography in Trondheim. Here, I have studied artistic photography and project development. My passion for photography is working on long-form projects with the goal of culminating in book form.

At the same time as I work on my projects, I take on commissioned work with a specialty in architecture, interior, and design.
