I was as specialist medical physicist at Karolinska University Hospital (Huddinge) working with radiation safety and medical imaging (MRI). Photography had long been an active hobby and after the birth of my son I started my photography business. I started my business in 2010, working weekends and evenings when my husband came home from work. Between my 2 children I tried to balance running my photography business from home 2 days a week while I continued working at the hospital but realised that my heart and mind was in photography and no longer in physics.

I opened my first studio in December 2012 and have been working solely with photography since then. It’s been a very eventful decade and I have loved every minute! I get to meet so many different people, young and old from all over the world. I may work alone 80% of the time but I have a very sociable time at work! I love photographing babies and then seeing them again a few month later for their 1 year session. I can see how much they’ve changed, their hair growth, they’ve got teeth and started to walk. Oftentimes I get to meet them again a couple of years later when they’ve become a big brother to a baby sister. It’s a wonderful experience to document these times for all my families.

I have the best job in the world!
