Two days ago I had the privilege of filming European Parliament President Roberta Metsola’s official visit to Stockholm — one of the most high-profile political events to hit the Swedish capital this spring.
Metsola met with Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson and toured Nasdaq Stockholm, where they held a roundtable with Swedish financial leaders Government.se — giving me a rare opportunity to shoot inside one of Europe’s most iconic trading floors. She also met with Riksdag Speaker Andreas Norlén and held a townhall with students, European Parliament each setting demanding a completely different approach behind the camera.
Covering state visits like this is what I love most about my work — fast-paced, historically significant, and never the same twice. Every frame has to count when you’re working around protocol, press pools, and dignitaries who don’t slow down for a second take.
