Jonas Fredwall Karlsson
Monica Zetterlund
As the youngest winner ever of the Swedish "Photographer of the Year", Karlsson has developed an incredible talent for story telling in his images, and his relationship with Vanity Fair magazine enabled him to photograph the worlds’ most prominent figures.
No other photographer has covered as much ground for Vanity Fair as Jonas Fredwall Karlsson, one of the magazine’s go-to visual masterminds. For the over 13 years, together with photography producer Ron Beinner, he has captured faces of tragedy and glory, misfortune and fame, from Timbuktu (literally) to Ground Zero—all in his signature style. Jonas has also been a contributing photographer to US Vogue, GQ, Condé Nast Traveler, and many more.
