I do not really know how I should start, but .. Yesterday I got to be on Maria and Hans amazing wedding in Goteborg. They are two incredible people that you do not really want to let go of. Two persons who is supernice any also knows how to throw a big party with really great music, dancing and laughter.
You will of course get to see alot more later, but right now, I offer a small preview ..
This Saturday Helena and Aaron got married inside the Palm House in the Trädgårdsföreningen in Gothenburg. It was the first wedding this year for me and as always, it was hard to hold back the tears behind the camera.
I thought you would like to see a small preview of some of the portraits we took. Some outdoors and some in side the palm house.
Here’s Aaron & Helena!
Today I shoot the first wedding of the year. There are the gorgeous Helena and Aaron who marry in Trädgårdsföreningen in Gothenburg. Here are pictures from our e-session. Preview from the wedding will come later next week ..
Johanna and Jacob’s wedding was in many ways a very personal wedding for me. They chose to get married in the fall and in the ”Stora Holms Säteri” on Hisingen in Gothenburg. And it was the same season and the same place as I got married a year before. But we will not talk about me. This is Johanna and Jacob’s wedding day. And what day they had, sunshine and even more sunshine. It was even warm though it was late October.
Johanna and Jacob is really a nice couple, you know, calm. Nice and relaxed. Stylish as well. And they have good taste. Everything was very nicely fixed in the premises. Stylish and bright. And Johanna, who fixed her own dress herself. With a simple brooch in her hair, also her own…
But finally, my words: Johanna & Jacob, thanks for letting me be part of your big day. Talk to you again soon…
So much is there to say but I choose to show…
PS. If you want then you can also look at their e-session here.
On Thursday, you will get to see a lot of this super nice couple, Johanna and Jacob, and their fabulous autumn wedding.
When Helen contacted me to shoot her wedding, we decided more or less directly that we would meet and talk. Since Aron is working at sea it took a little time before we got to it. Anyway, we sat down over a cup of coffee and talked about their wedding photo, the engagement session and a lot more. It really nice to get to know them. But it was also really exciting, Aron told me a lot about his work on the icebreaker, they told me about trips they’ve done, and much more. And when we talked further about settings for the wedding day we suddenly got it…
M / S Stockholm, a boat that Aron worked at some summers and Helena traveled with was in port Gothenburg to be winter-fixed. And we got free access. It’s a ship that during the summer brings tourists and scientists to Svalbard, to see polar bears and the incredible environment. It is a ship built in the 50ths after 1940-century drawings and have kept all the little details since. The ship was used in Peter Dalles new movie ” An enemy to die for ”.
The E-session was on board and around the ship. We started to go a little tour and take some pictures on deck and then we went ashore for a short walk. After that we went aboard and even went down into the engine room. Who knows, maybe it will become a white dress down there too?!
The whole time it was really super nice. Both Helena and Aron is one of those wonderfully relaxed and nice couple. A couple that you want to be friends with. Furthermore, their wedding to be super good looking!!! That I know! But until then you will have to make do with their engagement session from this december!

A wedding that lasted for 2 days and where I was 2a-photographer and assisted the amazing Sonia Jansson.
A wedding where all the money went to the Heart Research for children.
A wedding at St Bridget’s Chapel, and a party at Stora Moss Kullen.
In short, Sarah & Craig’s wedding.
Read and see the long history here:
It happens so much right now so I barely have time to blog. But on Tuesday, I promise that you will get to see Camilla and Frederick’s fabulous wedding.
Stay tuned for a lot of other stuff before that.
Some times you can’t wait!
I photographed Johanna & James this Saturday. You know that couple that I had a e-session with last spring. And now, the waiting is over. Now, finally, it was their big day. And what a day. Brilliant sunshine and glorious autumnal crispness and an absolutely fantastic nice day.
And even though the weather was absolutely incredibly beautiful, it’s nothing against them. Amazingly beautiful! Look and see for your self. I know that a preview should not be much more than one or maybe two shots. But I can not stop myself. I can not wait!
Sometimes you can not keep away, you just know it’s SO good. Like now, as with Camilla & Frederik. I photographed their wedding yesterday and now I woke up until the middle of the night and had to go through some of the pictures.
There is so much to say about their day. And incredibly thorough and with all those great little details. I can not help but wonder how they succeeded. And you will get exactly the same feeling. But not quite yet. First, you get to see a preview with some portraits. You will see how amazingly good they looked.
And to you, Camilla & Frederick. When you read this, thanks for letting me join. You are amazing. And with all my heart; CONGRATULATIONS!
It is a couple of weeks ago now. A couple of weeks since the lovely Malin & Peter got married. Right at this moment I’m working with their images so they can get a delivery later in the week. Obviously, I will show you everything later, but before that here’s a little sneak preview of a few favorites. I give you …
The stunning Malin & Peter, the preview.
The best weddings for me as a photographer are usually when I follow the wedding couple all day. And it’s often you feel that you do not want to leave them. You’re so close throughout their whole day.
Sometimes, however, the opposite is just as wonderful. Nina & Gustaf live in Goteborg just like me. In fact, they even live in the same house I lived in before. They were married just over a week ago in Masthuggskyrkan in Gothenburg. It is the church with best view (looking down over Majorna in the west). The view is so good that it even came a busload of French tourists and stopped us in our photography.
Nina and Gustav did not want a full day. In fact, they just wanted portraits. But we had just as good time. And as you can see they’re really nice, everyone. Especially their daughter Izabella. What eyes! And Gustaf’s beard, and Nina’s stomach, and the view …. Everything was actually super nice apart from the weather. Almost a little autumn rain in the middle of August. But it is at the same time the only thing you can not influence.
Here’s my portraits of Gustaf & Nina!
”Hello Oskar,
it looks like it will rain on Sunday so we’ve found a pretty cool garage that we had borrowed the keys to. It is located on Magasinsgatan. Do you think it might work? ”
Read more and see how it turned out..
I shoot Malin & Peter’s wedding on the 12th August, and afterwards I made a little slide show to them. I tried to capture the feeling of their amazing day and wedding. I feel like I succeeded quite well. It do has swedish music, but you might like it anyway?!
Would you like to see it you just have to look into here
Love!
I don’t think I have to explain it any further, but next week I’ll give you the biggest preshoot submission ever.
You do know that I always do a engagementsession if you book any of my wedding packages. Last week I had the pleasure to shoot Åsa & Micke’s session. They’re gonna get married down at Röda Sten and Klippan in Gothenburg and would like to take their portraits around there. So we took the opportunity to check out the surroundings together. And do our engagement session och pre-photography as some call it.
They’re really a super nice couple and I look forward to be part of their big day. But first you’ll see their beautiful engagement session
Now you will see a small preview of Liza and Henrik’s stunning wedding in Nääs outside of Gothenburg. It was the Swedish summer with all that implies. It was at the beautiful Nääs vänhem. And it was a night of many laughs and great music. You will all get to see it soon. But for now so you will have to do with some of the portraits, as a small preview.
Liza and Henrik are two really wonderful people. They are both very warm and cozy, they both shine, and above all at each other. Henrik’s joking, which even gives a photographer trouble keeping the camera still. Liza which meets up with small fun entries and her smile. In addition to it. See for yourselves. They are so beautiful! And in love!
Ps. I also took an engagement session with them. It can be found here.
I have a very busy time with several weddings, fix of concert Photos, magazines and plenty of deliveries. Of course, I totally enjoy being able to work on with all that I love.
In the middle of everything that happens, Ung Cancer writes about me helping them. They wrote very nicely about me on their side. Read it in Swedish here: Thousand ways to help
And then, last Saturday night, just returned from a wedding, I get a totally fantastic email. These things really make me happy. Read for yourself (translated by google):
Hello! I found here via Facebook and is now looking around. What good you are! I love the style you have and you manage to really bring out the story / mood of your photos. I love it! I photographed a lot for a few years ago, but makes it almost never long, unfortunately. But now, I was SO inspired by your pictures you will probably pick up my camera again. Will go social / media now in high school, then I also get involved with photography, editing and writing at school! Will stay on your website and be more inspired when needed.
I was so happy when I saw your wedding photos. Have always thought it must be so hard to get good pictures of the wedding. But where did you real good! You can see just how happy couples are and it is so wonderful feeling in the photos! Really.
And that you give money to Young Cancer! It’s that good! Was so happy when I read it. Should be more like you who do so. For almost a year ago, I lost a friend to cancer, and also had a classmate who is ill. And he’s still alive! What you do in fact save lives!
That was what I wanted to say! Continue shoot and you are a great source of inspiration!
Michaela
Thank you Michaela!
You really make me never want to stop!
I leave you with a picture from Metaltown and the not entirely unknown guitarist Björn Gelotte.
Malin & Peter is getting married in about a month. The day before yesterday, we met for a preshoot in Jonsered outside of Gothenburg.
Take a look at Malin & Peter to see what it was ..
There is no doubt that I am fortunate to get to do what I love and also get paid for it. Getting to capture people in their absolute happiest moments. To be part of and share their happiness and joy. It is wonderful! It is simply a dream come true.
I think that people should get a chance to fulfill their dreams. Small or large. But there are so many who do not have the same opportunities for many different reasons. Therefore I’ve decided to try to give back a little. And perhaps be able to help someone fulfill one or some dreams. For it to work, I need your help.
Every year I donate all the money for a wedding to a non-profit organization Ung Cancer. And that’s you, my customers, who decide which wedding it will be. The wedding client who wants me to shoot them and donate the money to Ung Cancer will have to pay 15% extra on the regular price. All money will obviously go to Ung Cancer.
I also had the privilege of getting to know the founder Julia Mjörnstedt and that makes me feel certain that the money will come in handy for people who really need them.
No discounts or print credit will be included, but all money will be donated in full. In addition the price will be an additional 15% up. My price list is not updated with info on this yet, but you can of course to figure out what Ung-Cancer-Prices will be by looking at my price list and add 15%.
Please help me to do good!
Love!
Oskar
