Michel who?

42 years /   Stockholm  /   Freelance

Well, hello — buddy, boss, fan, or stalker?!
I’m Michel, and I love being creative. I’m always hungry to find new ways to express myself, cure boredom, learn, and keep my mind young and full of dreams about what’s possible. I live by ”How hard can it be?!” — then I dive straight in and consume everything I can about the subject.

I’ve been an all-around creative professional since 2010 and have submerged myself in a wide range of creative industries, including content creation, art direction, graphic design, packaging design, video editing, and photography. I’ve also worked in the tattoo industry and taught screen printing. You name it — I’ve probably done it or at least dipped my toe in it. I even built Facebook fan pages and learned FBML (kind of regret that now).

I’ve worked with big clients and small ones, and I always try to do the best job I can. Small budget? Let’s think smarter. Big budget? Hell yes — let’s do something insane!

AD & Content Creator

I’ve collaborated with all kinds of brands and artists — from the super-polished to the wonderfully weird — creating visual stories that actually say something (instead of just looking like pretty wallpaper). My secret sauce? A mash-up of old-school artistry and shiny digital wizardry that makes each project stand out in today’s “scroll-past-in-2-seconds” world.

Graphic & Packaging Designer

My design philosophy? Simple: if it doesn’t look rad and work, it’s out the window. I’ve built brands and packaging that not only grab eyeballs but also whisper (sometimes shout) the soul of the product. Bonus: they make people actually care about what’s inside the box.

Video Editor

Video editing? Oh, I’ve been down that rabbit hole. Cutting, tweaking, splicing until the story clicks and the emotions hit. I’ve used so many editing programs at this point I could probably do it blindfolded (not recommended, though).

Tattoo Industry

And then there’s the tattoo industry — talk about a crash course in commitment. That world taught me that art isn’t just about “pretty pictures,” it’s about permanence, identity, and doing it right. Now I carry that same precision and respect for individuality into everything I create (minus the needles… unless we’re going there?).

Hobbys and life?

Stuff I love to do (when I’m not working) is like 95.5% pop culture! I LOVE MOVIES! Or binging a show the whole weekend with junk food as my co-star. Or throwing myself into a hardcore show and stage-diving like it’s my job. Hanging out with my amazing kid Frank, who’s one head taller than me. Or going to exhibitions or the pub with my wifey Minerva. And I mean, have you met Eliot? He’s my dog with a resting sad face—haha. And the real kicker? Learning new stuff! Right now I’m deep into Blender, and honestly—it’s a blast!

 

Love mail or hate mail—both totally welcome.

 

Peace and potatoes! 🥔✌️

From camera to canvas to chaos — your one-stop creative circus

-I capture, create, and occasionally blow minds

(in the best way).

Graphic Design.

Fluent in pixels by day, bad jokes by night.

I work in Photoshop, In Design, Illustrator, Affinity Publisher.

Final art

You’ve got the logo, the photos, and the text — but how the heck do you make the book, poster, flyer, vinyl cover, or folder look good?
I got you!

Logo

Need help capturing the essence of your company, band, or personal brand? I know it’s hard — but I’m here to help! You’ll always get a clean, solid vector file to use wherever you need it.

Brand Identity & Visual Language

I love doing brand identity — whether it’s from the start or just updating the look and feel of your company. I help stitch everything together, from logo to social media, so you can stand out on this big round rock we call Earth.

Illustrations

Nothing is quite as creative as drawing and creating illustrations — it's something truly close to my heart. Got a fashion brand and want some cool new t-shirt designs? Or maybe just a fun little mascot? Let me do it — pretty please?

A peek behind the curtain — where ideas turn into visuals and caffeine turns into magic.

Design portfolio

Video and stuff.

I speak Davinci Resolve Studio, Premiere, and sarcasm — fluently.

Video

Need video? Trying to create that next viral reel but don't know how to film it? Or maybe you want a slick, high-quality interview to showcase the amazing people you work with. Or perhaps you just want to capture that fun event, party, or gig — and show all the people who didn’t RSVP in time what they missed. FOMO, am I right?

Video edits & digital displays

Do you need help editing your documentary? That sick skate session you captured with the gang last weekend? Or maybe you're just creating so much content that you don’t have time to edit it all? Need help with color grading? Adding cool transitions and openings? Or maybe just an intro?

Photography

Fluent in Adobe, chaos, and getting sht done.

Photoshop, Lightroom and Capture One.

Portraits.

Need new portraits for the company website? Or why not get that badass portrait for your new Tinder profile?

Product & Lifestyle.

Need new fresh photos of people wearing that dope shirt you finally made? Or just want to update your e-commerce store?

Live shows.

I love doing concerts, promo shots, and of course following you guys out on tour!

Events.

I love meeting new people. I love taking photos that aren’t staged—just catching people in their honest state of loving life! I do everything from working at coperat events to wild underground techno parties… and even your mom’s 60th surprise party!

Here’s the proof I actually do stuff.
