Beetles, bugs and butterflies on your wall

Hagedornhagen_beatle

Do you remember me writing about Louise Roe  … well the same agency who represents them also introduced me to Hagedornhagen. A company from Denmark founded by Mads Hagedorn-Olsen and Anders Morell Hagen, both renowned photographers who have many awards to their credit.
