Who do you think is the typical boudoir shot client? Well, if you you think there is only one type you're definately not up to date! Many times it's a bride to be who wants to take some private, sensual yet very elegant and beautiful photos and sometimes it's just a woman of any age and size that wants to give herself a luxury treat of the more unusual kind. Or, maybe it's like this drop dead gorgeous woman, who didn't know at all until I showed up with my camera at her bachelorette party at Grand Hôtel!
Mr & Mrs - Time to select your favourite wedding photos!
I think most wedding couples really look forward to get access to their private web photo gallery with all the photos from their wedding day, and today is the day for Åsa and Egon! They got married in Låssa church 11 days ago and now the fun-but-difficult part starts, they have to choose their favourites! Here are some of the ones I like!
French Stockholm wedding with style, gold and glamour
Yesterday I photographed Anna's and Olivier's destination wedding in Stockholm and what a day it was! The city really showed off all of it's summer beauty for the guests from all over the world and so did the bride and groom who live in Paris. I will post more photos later but for now I blog only a few previews of what's to come!
Costa Smeralda wedding - Mina & Sumit - part 3
Okay, I admit, I should have posted more portraits earlier but I haven't been able to! I simply had to look through all shots of this great couple first and that has taken some time. Anyway, here are the portraits from Mina's and Sumit's wedding in Sardinia in June, starting with the couple's first look of the day.
As always, I try to shoot as much as I can without flash and so did I also this time. But, the reflector held by my assistant/husband was absolutely necessary this time, the sun were really, really bright!
After having shot the first portraits close to their family's house, we went to the small mountain village where Mina lived when she was a kid, San Pantaleo. There we took a few photos as well even if it was difficult to find suitable light during the middle of the day. In addition to that, the square was occupied because of preparations for the evening festivities due to the regatta at Porto Cervo. But, it's always possible to get some great shots!
At the end of the portrait session we headed back to the coast to Porto Cervo where these photos were taken. Finally I found some open shade and and love, love, love these ones!
Mina and Sumit, you are both soooo nice and you made our stay in Sardinia something to remember for a long time! I know you're perfect for each other and both my husband and I wish you the very best!
Ordinary love, really don't think so, not a love this true
Pure happiness, that's how I would describe the feeling during yesterday's very sunny summer wedding. The bride and groom were both very relaxed and truly showed what a wedding should be about - love, happiness, friends and family! Oh yes, the to-die-for dress from Garamaj, a truly amazing bouquet and a long Pronovia's veil added some extra beauty but really, the bride glowed so she would have looked good in anything!
They got married in Låssa church and nobody could miss that the day was all about Åsa and Egon, or as they would say, it was all about me and you.
I just love this kind of soft black and white photos and once again I had to object against the bride who said she's never looking good at photos!
Yes, I am a wedding photographer with love for details!
Yes, I confess..... I am kind of a wedding ring addict! Yesterday night Teno and I visited some friends that recently got married and I just couldn't keep myself from taking a closer look at the new bling. Unfortunately we couldn't be with them on their wedding day because I was since long booked for a wedding abroad the same week. But, nothing could stop me from a detailed study of their beautiful wedding rings from Vasastans Guldsmedja!

Make your wedding photographer happy - No. 2!
Just hours after I uploaded my previous post I got mail..... another wedding invitation! This time it was an invitation to a wedding in September. The bride and groom to be live abroad and I met them for the first time recently, and I know for sure they will be a great wedding couple!
Do you want to make your wedding photographer happy?
Well, in that case you should do as Åsa and Egon! They are getting married on Saturday and guess if I put on a big smile when I found this invitation in my mail yesterday! I suppose I should have taken a photo before I opened it, but I was just to curious. Most of my clients are super sweet to me and it gives so much extra inspiration during the shoot. Thanks Åsa and Egon!
Costa Smeralda wedding - Mina & Sumit - part 2
Finally I can post part two of Mina's and Sumits wedding in Sardinia! I will of course also add a looong blog post with portraits and photos from the dinner and party, but now it's time to relive the moments with the very cool wedding party before the emotional ceremony and the happy time when the couple said "I do".
Is it a strange animal in the bushes or could it be a wedding photographer doing her thing? Well, judge for yourself! The result from this special moist mud treatment for my feet can be seen above, the first photo. The photo of the bush animal is obviously not shot by me, but by my husband and photo assistant for the day. He also shot the b/w group shot just below and some of the other photos as well.
While I was hanging with the girls my husband found out that some of the guys - including the groom - seemed to miss the VM football game for the day, so they simply started to play around on their own. I just loved the relaxed feelings this couple spread throughout their wedding day!
Just before the ceremony the wedding party went to the beach to await the arrival of all of the guests. Once again, I just l.o.v.e. this relaxed couple!
Emma and Rasmus got married in 2008 and it was really nice to meet "my" wedding couple again! Since their wedding they have become three in the family and I had to take at least a few shots of them. If you want to see their wedding photos, visit my portfolio here.
Mina's wedding bouquet was made of four smaller bouquets so look what happened when she threw it! She now has four very happy unmarried female friends!
Busy summer days for a wedding photographer!
I haven't posted anything in about a week but it's not because I don't have any new photos to show. On the contrary I have too much work to do! Anyway, I felt I really had to shares these portraits from my recent Italian wedding with you! I just l.o.v.e. the location and the fact that one could see the harbour in Porto Cervo in the back.
And yes, I think it's needless to say that this bride took both my and her husband's breath away that day.....
The couple photo at the top is shot with my 16-35 mm f2.8L lens at 16mm and f2.8. For the bridal portrait I used my 85 mm f1.2L lens wide open. As you can see I have placed the bride and groom in the shade to avoid the sun and to get a really flattering soft light. The wall in front of them is white which gave just the necessary extra light I needed in their faces. Only natural light and natural reflectors were used.
