Photography: Petter Hegre

After studying at the Brooks Institute of Photography in California, USA, Petter was hired as an assistant for Richard Avedon in New York before returning to his hometown of Stavanger, Norway. Only 21, he started his own studio and soon established himself as one of Norway's most successful photographers. Receiving the "Erotic Photographer of the Year 2001" award at the 8th annual "Erotic Oscars" in London in 2001, Petter secured his status as a world-class erotic photographer. He went on to publish six books and have his work exhibited internationally.
