Erika Skogg | Northern Nature

An intimate, photographic portrayal of Scandinavian-American communities by Wisconsin-based, National Geographic Explorer Erika Skogg.

From a glimpse into Finnish-American culture in Michigan’s upper peninsula to scenes of Swedish-American tradition right here in Minnesota, Erika’s images selected for display at ASI capture the essence of Scandinavian-American holiday tradition. Her stunning photographs have been taken during visits to homes and communities across the Upper Midwest, visually preserving Nordic-American culture.
