Martin is a Swedish ripper and another dude that needs a continual fix from the slopes. You have to forgive the fact that he ski’s given his pictures make up for his insistence to strap two sticks instead of one to his feet (jokes), But seriously this guy sends it, both on skis and with the lens.
Full time photographer, full time study and full time killing it, we met Martin 4 years ago during the debated best season ever in Mayrhofen.
Such a character, he is always riding with a camera in hand, un-gloved and willing too loose a few fingers to frost bite in order to get the results. Thus, we are super stoked to cloth him in the best gloves so he can keep his fingers and still get his shots.
I can’t praise this guy enough without sounding like a douche so will just let his pictures do the talking.
Martin is on the finishing touches of his new website so will update when that has been launched. In the mean time you can find his content on instagram/martinbjorkqvist or facebook.com/martinbjorkqvistphotography
Congrats Martin and we are fully stoked to have you on the team.
Looking forwards to more epic bangers hitting our screens.

There is something about forests that is just simply enchanting, no matter the season you find them in. The eeriness of a bare winter tree, the lushness of a summer tree in full bloom, the comfort of a tree in its golden autumn cloak. Unlike many types of landscape photography, woodland photography doesn't require any special travel. If you live by some trees, you too can jump into woodland photogrphy!

*This size guide is specific only to W's Nordic Photography Glove |
Please note, our gloves are designed to fit snuggly to give you the best camera feel without compromising on warmth. If you prefer a looser fit, please consider to go a size up.
As we learn more and more about gloves we also learn that all hands are different. Some people have long skinny fingers and slim wrists, others have wide hands with short fingers.
Our gloves wont fit all even with the right measurements from the sizing chart – but we try!
For many, the best option will be to go up a size if your measurements are in between sizes.
If you are between sizes or if your hands do not fit into the measurements on our sizing chart, we recommend prioritizing the fit for the girth measurement. The girth is the most important measurement and if the girth size on the glove is too small, you won't be able to fit the glove.
If you’re considering pairing a liner glove with your photography gloves, we recommend choosing the same size liner as photography glove. We designed our liners to be thin and fit inside of our photography gloves so we recommend your normal size in liners. There are two exceptions to this:
Exception #1: If you are at the very end of the ratio size in the sizing chart, e.g. 1 mm from being a size Large, then we advise going up a glove size if you plan to often wear the liner with the gloves.
Exception #2: If your personal preference is to wear fairly loose gloves, then you should also go up a size when adding a liner. We don't recommend this as you will compromise dexterity with loose gloves and our priority is best possible camera feel. But you know best what you like!
House tip: Make sure to choose a liner size that is snug/tight on your hand for the best Fliptech performance when wearing liners and gloves together.
