Biography / Jens Andersson
www.thejens.com
My first memory of Jens Andersson is how the tail of his board went
“pop” when he landed a flawless ollie over a meter-high bar stool in
the old Fryshuset. That was 16 years ago and I wonder if Jens
still holds some kind of unofficial Scandinavian record for the
highest ollie.
My second memory of him was the click of his camera
when he shot a portrait of me. That was 15 years ago, when he had just
started working as a photographers assistant. He only had one frame
left on the roll and still presented me with a perfect print the
following week. He focused perfectly on the pupils of my eyes, my hair
was pitch black and I seem to remember thinking I looked pretty good
in it.
We’ve worked together a lot over the years and as a photographer he’s
always been ambitious, reliable and, above all, always gets it right.
