Rune Bendiksen is a Norwegian photographer with over 20 years of experience. Originally from Ørnes, a small town 120 km south of Bodø, he moved to Oslo in 1998 to pursue his dream of becoming a photographer. After spending three years as a photo assistant for some of Norway’s leading photographers, he gradually established himself with his own projects.


Over the past 15 years, Rune has delivered campaigns and images for some of Norway’s largest brands and agencies, including:


Vikingfjord, Mitsubishi, Shell, Statoil, Coca-Cola, Oslo Municipality, Bærum Municipality, Tine, The Norwegian Nurses Organization, Lexus, Pfizer, Jøtul, Glassmagasinet, Metrosenteret, TV-aksjonen, NorgesEnergi, Flytoget, Canal Digital, Ice, KIA, Ruter, Peugeot, MAC Cosmetics, Gilde, Atea, Standard Norge, The Norwegian Cancer Society, Imove, Skogstad, Avarn, Rottefella, Fabel, Voke, Eleni & Chris, Volvo, and many more.


In 2020, Rune, together with Martin Rustad Johansen, established the rental studio Oslo Fotostudio—a professional space where photographers and production companies can rent both studios and equipment for their own productions. Since then, it has grown to become one of the most visited photo studios in Oslo.


Rune’s passion for photography remains as strong as ever, and he continuously strives to deliver the best possible results in every project.
