About Me
I am Katrine
Hi there!
Photography has always been my passion.
From film cameras to the latest digital, I've always enjoyed capturing those moments in time that will never come back but will still keep us company into the future.
Photography is memory keeping, it's adventuring, exploring, learning, connecting to people and places.
This site is my expression of that passion, in its multifaceted form.

I'm enjoying VERO's social media experience which is different from Instagram in several ways:
- NO ADS !!!
- No algorithms, meaning my feed is organized the way I want it !
- No data mining !
And also important to me, it's visually appealing both in the phone app and the desktop app. It's a joy to see my feed spread out on the whole screen when I'm on my computer.

I've been using Instagram since 2010 and seen a lot of changes from the early square photos with heavy filters to today's different formats with Stories, Reels and Lives etc.
I feel a bit nostalgic for the simple layout and chronologic feed, where I would follow a few people and actually see their posts.
For every Instagram post I create, there's a lot that goes into chosing the right hashtags, a meaningful caption, and tagging people and accounts - in the hopes of reaching both my followers and grow my audience.
To grow a following, Instagram's algorithms reward Reels with a bigger audience and want to shift the focus away from photos to video. That's a major change from the beginning, in order to compete with TikTok for users!
I'm not a videographer, I love photography! I'm not planning on letting Instagram dictate my interests. I do the occasional video and reel but that's not where my focus is.
I will continue to deep dive into landscape photography, moon close-ups, night photography adventures, experimenting with slow shutterspeed and new techniques, because that's what makes me happy!

Some of my friends and followers prefer Facebook's format to see my photos. I parallell post a lot to my Facebook page and Instagram for that reason.
