In the summer of 2018, two outdoor photographers meet for the first time in Katterjokk, 7km from the Swedish/Norwegian border. Neither of them is from there; both arrived at the exact time and place sharing their passion for photography.
Greetings were made, stories were told, and as the evening went on, dreams were shared. They discover a mutual desire to evoke the spirit of adventure through photography, and as they part ways the following morning, the concept of 360N has already begun to take form.
We are Oscar Manguy and Chris Alfthan.
Oscar was born in Baja, Mexico, and grew up exploring the Sonoran desert. At the age of nineteen, he participated in a 15-month long photography expedition where he developed a passion for outdoor photography. That moment "adventure life" led him to Alaska, New Zealand, Patagonia, USA, and Scandinavian Arctic. Oscar is an outdoor educator and spends most of his time in nature. Nowadays, he lives in a remote cabin in Eastern Finnish nature. Since 2018 Photo: Jens Nyström.
