Yesterday I shot Kaya and Dan’s wonderful day in Stockholm. They are one of those amazing couples where you don’t want to leave the party, you just want continue to celebrate them.
The ceremony was in Bromma not far from their home and the party was at Fåfängan in a bright sunshine with views over Stockholm.
Here are a few images as a preview…
Saturday in Gothenburg and an amazing day, Camilla and Frederick’s fantastic wedding day.
It’s a little rain in the air but who cares!? We meet outside the hotel Novotel, close to Röda Sten, in the harbor of Gothenburg, where Frederick is waiting for his bride, and it shows all over his face how happy he is. Just look at the reaction when Camilla arrives..
That’s how the day goes on, so full of laughter,joy and love. The marriage is in St. Birgittas Chapel, at Klippan, ending with ”Signed, sealed, delivered” (original by Stewie Wonder) where the priest play the bass, and the bride and groom is dancing out!
The sun comes and goes during the portraits at Färjenäs and we have so much fun, like when Fredrik discovers the trampoline and Camilla are not late to join! On the way out to the party in Långedrag we stop at their old apartment. They’ve spotted a great wall there, covered with red leaves.
Mingle with sandwiches and Swedish fortune cookies with personalized messages (even one to the photographer!) The party is at the restaurant Långedrags värdshus just by the water. Camilla and Frederick has really managed to put their own style on the whole thing with mass of details and fun elements, such as seating arrangements with images associated to each party participant – absolutely brilliant! After the champagne the party continues with dinner. And as I leave I hear the laughs..

Last Saturday when I went from Gothenburg the sky was gray and it was rain in the air. Towards and past Borås and eventually, I arrived at an oasis I’ve never been at before. On a cape with lakes on both sides was the stunning Hofsnäs herrgård (Hofsnäs mansion). It was not only incredibly beautiful, the weather also went from rain to sunshine!
Daniel celebrated midsummer when he was a kid and now when they where gonna choose a place of marriage, the choice was easy. The wedding was small with only the closest friends and family and it where held just down by the water.
It was a true pleasure to capture their love and I can’t wait to show you the entire wedding. But until then, you get this little preview …
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 ..
I have just delivered the photos to Anders Björler (Grammy winning guitarist of the Haunted and At the Gates) who is going to release his first solo album. The album is really interesting and is a mix of everything from classical music, jazz, progressive rock and especially film music. Incredibly fun to show you the first picture taken inside the Natural History Museum in Gothenburg.
Read more about Anders and the project which is called Antikythera on his website, www.andersbjorler.com.
Mornington Hotel Stravaganza in Gothenburg is releasing the book ”Vardagsgläntor” for the second time. The members of the staff and some of its guests tell you about their favorite places in Gothenburg. Often something a little on the side from the normal ”Liseberg” or big streets.
Each employe have choosen thier own style for the shoot and it’s a fantastic book that’s beeing released. You got everything from lovelly pink to the marlboro man in the photos.
I was the lucky photographer and I will show you much more when it’s released. But in the meantime you’ll get the nice Sofa and Nathalie. Sofia is the night portier on the hotel and a as you can see a awesome model as well. Nathalie works on GIFF (Göteborg International Film Festival) and is one of the guests writing in the book.
Today’s afternoon shooting meant a new kind of models for me. And yes, they’re all cute in some way though I am a little scared for anything bigger than a dog.
More photos and what it should be then I will tell you in a few weeks.
I photograph full time but I show’s far too little of the pictures I take for other organizations or company than just that related to weddings.
But it’s time for a change. I have started and here comes another one of my pictures from a different context.
This is a portrait taken for the website 1177.se of Julia Mjörnstedt. Julia has founded the organization Ung Cancer (young Cancer) and is photographer as well.
1177.se wanted to use the picture in connection with her chronicles. They wanted to be used in landscape mode with text around it and as a close up portrait.
If you would like to read Julia’s chronicle can you do that in Swedish here.
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.
Atronic making solutions for payments. Much more than that, I do not know. Last summer, I got the assignment to photograph the board of the company when they, for once, were gathered in Gothenburg.
The assignment was to capture them in a bit more relaxed and free situation than a normal studio shooting. We went out of the restaurant where they were having the meeting in and took some pictures. The pictures are taken under one roof in the pouring rain and I took up to 5 minutes per person.
After these photos, I then asked to take photos of staff in the same way. These photos where taken outside of their office in Hisingen.
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!

I haven’t blogged in a really long time. I hope to change that now because I really have super much that I want to show you.
Last Friday my sister Sofia visited. She needed to have a few pictures to her CV and when we were satisfied with the usual photos so we took the opportunity to play a little. Here you can see one of the later images.
This will just be the start of a spring with lots and lots of posts!
Talk to you again soon!
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!
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.
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 ..
Last Sunday me and Katarina was on our way home to a few friends for dinner. We walked through Linnestan in Gothenburg and all of a sudden there was the perfect afternoon light.
It’s moments like these that I am so incredibly grateful to be married to a woman who thinks it’s fun to be photographed. And the fact that Katarina is the hottest girl in town don’t do anything worse for me.
When I photograph a wedding I always try to do a preshoot to get to know the couple, to check their photospots before their big day and of cause to give them some extra love-memories.
I’ve just published the preshoot of the lovely couple Johanna and Jacob in the portfolio. Please check it out here!
