Meet Espen Helland

OM System Ambassador with a background in Wildlife Biology and Conservation


Hei hei! I’m Espen Helland, a Norwegian wildlife photographer based in Perthshire, Scotland. I’ve missed my share of shots in nature I can’t get back. When I switched to Olympus (OM System) in 2020, I decided to learn my gear inside and out. 

Since then, I’ve led workshops, sold over 500 courses, and have posted YouTube videos since 2018 to help people connect with nature and leave the stress of camera settings behind.
