>Last week I met up with Angelika and Jonnie for their engagement shoot in Gamla Stan. We had a blast! The light was absolutely perfect and they were perfect models. Both Angelika and Jonnie were so relaxed in front of the camera and had no problems sharing their feelings for eachother with my camera!

I’m so looking forward to their wedding day in June at Noors Slott! I’ll be covering Angelika getting ready and my second shooter, Cherrie, will be covering Jonnie. They are going to have the perfect story to tell in the wedding photo book. Cherrie was also with me for this engagement shoot and you can see her lovely pictures on her blog.

Well, here are a few of my favourite pictures from the photo session! I have also just finished their photo guestbook design which I LOVE but I won’t blog that until after their wedding!

>Last week I photographed Susann and Ricky’s engagement session. In most of my wedding packages an engagement is included. It serves 2 purposes really. Firstly, we all to get to know eachother before the big day so that my couples can relax safe in the knowledge that they are good hands. Secondly, my couples get some nice photos of themselves in the ordinary clothes which they can frame for their homes or even in their wedding party program and wedding preparation website!..or order a photo guest book: a lovely photobook complete with blank pages for your guests to sign on the wedding day!

Susanne and Ricky have a little baby which they left with grandma for the first time since he was born to do their engagement session. I felt honoured! They were nervous and could only remember the horrors of their high school photos and eager for some photos that show them as they are and how much they love eachother, in a relaxed way!..and I think we managed that! Don’t they just look beautiful and in love!

>A couple of weeks ago I was in Skåne and had the pleasure of a family shoot on the beach! I was soooo looking forward to it. We still had half a meter of snow in our garden in Stockholm and Skåne promised a warm Spring weekend!… Then it snowed again! The snow melted quickly and we had our session as planned much to the shock of the little fingers of Eadward 18months and Aelfie 3.5 years!

I’ve not been so well since I got back from Skåne so this blog is long awaited but here are a few of my favourites!…

Now I’m off to curl up on my sofa and feel sorry for myself again!

>I’m snowed under at the moment designing books for families and editing photos for enlargements. I’ve even recently ordered what I hope to be the most amazing photo book to offer my wedding couples and families. The book is the same lay flat design as my current books but this one is handbound in leather (with loads of colour options)! The pages are about 2mm thick each so I am expecting my 30×30 cm book to weight about 2½ kg! I hope to receive it in a couple of weeks so keep an eye on my blog for pictures!

Since all blog posts should have a picture, I’m posting one of Anya, one of the enlargements her parents have ordered! Isn’t she such a beauty! (Julia, I’ll be working on your pictures next week!)

I have so many exciting shoots coming up this month including family sessions, an engagement session, a newborn session and in a month my first wedding of the season! Happy days! If you are thinking of booking a Spring photo session with me then send me an email of give me a call! If you are one of those lucky people who have recently received gift certificates then drop me a line, I’d love to hear from you and book in your photoshoot!

>Yesterday I photographed the most adorable 4 months old Freja in her home. The apartment had the best light a photographer can imagine when going to a home shoot with a wall of North facing windows! Wonderful!

We had such a lovely time. Almost every prop and detail you see in these pictures is special, from the hat which Teresas had for the evening of her wedding, the patchwork quilt was hand made my Frejas grandmother, as was her white knitted dress which she will wear on her name giving ceremony next week. The ribbon on the dress was used in the detailing of Teresa and Andreas wedding day! It’s so lovely to go to a home and photograph a family amoungst their treasured possessions! It makes the photos even more meaningful. Well, here are some of my favourites!

Teresa told me that Freja had started to show an interest in her feet and laying in the picnic basket gave her the perfect position to admire her little tootsies! This was the first time she had grabbed her own feet.

This is where Freja usually watch her dad cook dinner!

I’m really looking forward to designing this photobook!
