Alexander Sylte (b. 1976, Molde, Norway) works at the intersection of contemporary photography and visual culture. Operating from his Oslo studio, he crafts considered imagery that navigates both artistic inquiry and commercial contexts. His evolving practice encompasses fashion commissions, editorial work, and long-term personal projects that examine shifting perspectives in Nordic visual expression.

His collaborative method engages thoughtfully with designers, artists, and cultural practitioners. Through this approach, Sylte develops visual narratives that translate naturally between exhibition spaces and editorial platforms, fostering dialogue across creative disciplines.

In 2018, the establishment of his purpose-built Oslo studio marked a key development in his practice. This environment, with its precise control over light and space, has become instrumental in refining his distinct visual language.

Sylte's foundation in analog photography emerged through dedicated darkroom practice in the 1990s, where he developed a profound understanding of photographic fundamentals. His subsequent studies at Bilder Nordic School of Photography expanded this knowledge into contemporary realms, encompassing digital imaging, post-production, and sophisticated studio lighting techniques.

Drawing from extensive experience in creative direction and visual storytelling, he brings measured perspective to each project - whether artistic or commercial in nature.

His current focus centers on select collaborations with fashion houses and cultural institutions, contributing to contemporary photographic discourse through a considered Nordic lens.
