Ilja C. Hendel works for international corporate clients, corporate publishing houses as well as leading magazines on assignments in Scandinavia and abroad.

He has an intuitive, observing approach to photography - to discover the motives in actuality, always on location and mostly un-staged.

Since 1997, Ilja has been working full time as a photographer. Prior to this, he took a Master´s degree in Political Science, Social Anthropology and Economics, which may have influenced his kind of fieldwork approach to photography.

In 2005 he moved from Germany to Oslo. He speaks Norwegian, German and English.
