Born with a love for striking imagery, Peter Christian Christensen purchased his very own camera, a 35mm Zenit, for the first time when he was just 13 years old. Soon, the young Dane living in the outskirts of Copenhagen transformed the bedroom of his childhood home into a darkroom.
While the camera has changed many times over since the days of Peter’s bedroom-darkroom, his passion for the pursuit of the striking image remains unyielding.
After completing his photographic education in Denmark ‘s school system, Peter moved, to New York City , where he spent four years as a photographer’s assistant.
At the same time, he was honing his unique photographic style Scandinavian in nature: open-minded, but keeping even the complicated simple. Today, Peter’s enthusiasm for the magic and wonder of photography is as fresh as it was the day he developed his first picture.
Peter’s work has appeared in some of the world’s best-known style, fashion and lifestyle magazines:
Marie Claire, Elle, GQ, Esquire, Glamour, Arena, Spoon, Twill, Rouge and Zoozoom, among others.
