What do I offer?

I have more than 10 years of professional experience in visual storytelling

My vision for my stories in adventure, streetsport, authentic portraits, video production and Art Direction is to inspire and empower the modern human and especially the youth to venture out and experience the world - outer as well as inner - in new, conscious and constructive ways.

To bring light to that which we hide in the shadows.

To create unity and connection in our divided societies.

Therefore I especially work with organizations, brands and companies, that take on a conscious and social responsibility in a world where it's needed more than ever.

Among other themes, I work within these subject areas:

Skateboarding
Other board and extreme sports
Nature and travel
Trends, taboos and tendencies

The authentic portrait
Personal development and existence
Youth, community and identity
Presentation- and music videos

Throughout my life as an adventure photographer, portrait photographer and photojournalist, I travel regularly, and I have also long focused on my own inner journey.

I am searching for truth and depth in life.

Therefore, honesty, presence, emotions and inspiration are main focus areas in my works.

It is important to me that my images evoke confidence as well as strong feelings and thoughts in anyone observing them - we're already up to our ears in feeds full of hollow content.

MY WORK GETS 5 OF 5 * ON GOOGLE

Delivers high quality photos and video productions!

"It is a great pleasure to work with Simon Skipper! I have done so while he has been a photographer at the Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Copenhagen.

Simon is able to lean into tasks, understand the company's culture and deliver high quality photos and video productions that match their needs.

And one thing I really appreciate is Simon's openness to and constant pursuit of improvement. He asks questions, evaluates his work - and proceeds into the next project wiser and stronger. "

Charlotte Aabo

A passionate soul and an eye for details.

"If you're looking for a great visual storyteller with a warm and open personality, I can highly recommend Simon.

I have worked with Simon on several occasions where he has captured anything from eye-catching portraits, aestehetic website images and touching photos of kids learning entrepreneurship.

On all projects, Simon has always delivered very high-quality and with a touch of personality and edginess that make his photos stand out from the crowd.

Moreover, Simon is a pleasure to work with, as he is genuine, cool-crazy and always going that extra mile to make the result perfect. I would definitely recommend Simon on any tasks that demands a creative mind, a passionate soul and an eye for details."

Nana Christiansen

You are an inspiring person.

"You are an inspiring person from the time I met you and your friend when you were on a trip to Norway. You stood in front of our old house by the main road and looked like someone who froze a bit and needed a cup of coffee, I invited you in and we had a good talk.

Was already a bit photo interested, but your story inspired me to get more interested. And despite my schizophrenia, PTSD and social anxiety, today I have started making money on my photos, getting more out on trips and to concerts with my camera.

And a lot of it I think is because of our meeting and having followed you on the sideline on Facebook and Instagram. Thank you for being who you are, Simon."
