Or actually, I got a text on my cell. With a package notification from Cyberphoto. Quite the package too, I’d say – new back-up camera (Nikon D300S – Willy‘s got himself a baby brother!), new lens (Sigma 20mm f/1,8), on-location back-up drive (Jobo 200 GB), a memory card and a memory card reader. And a...
I had a portrait session with singer Anna Järvinen on Södermalm last weekend, for a magazine cover. She was super nice and I think we got some great stuff! We had the photo shoot by a red storage door outside Hotel Rival at Mariatorget. Will be interesting to see how the cover turns out. Here are a...
A tiny little post just to tip you off about this website and this book. It’s a Swedish photography community called 1x, with people contributing from all over the world. And the quality of the pictures is AMAZING. STUNNING. Photography at its finest. So if you think about giving someone a photobook for christmas, get...
I think these pictures have been posted earlier, on my old blog. But I like them and think they’re worth posting again. It’s a 50′s portrait session that I had with two of my colleagues a while back. I’d like to do more editing like this – so if you need (or know anyone who...
Two years ago I packed my bags and moved Stockholm. Two years and two months ago, to be precise. That’s also how long I’ve been doing 9 to 5 work here. I started out as a web editor, moved on to graphic design and layout and finally became a photographer. It’s been two great years....
Blogs get a lot of spam. There’s nothing to do about it really, but to use some kind of spam filter that deletes all the weird (mostly sexual related) stuff that appears in the comments area. Allan Cole Roberts wrote a post about the spam poetry that his spam filter detected a while back. Here’s...
I travelled up to Luleå, Boden and Kalix in northern Sweden for a couple of photo jobs, together with a colleague earlier this week. It’s cold up there, but no snow at the moment which makes it sorta dark. But before the sun sets, there’s some really amazing light. Inspiring light for a photographer. I...
How people survived without the Internet for thousands of years is beyond me. (Writing ‘the Internet’ makes me feel old – why is that?) There are so many people making awesome (and free) stuff out there, one could spend ages and still not discover it all. Heck, most of everything I know I’ve learned from...
I’m leaving for Canada and Vancouver on November 5th. I’ve known about it for a long time already, but since it’s been months away, it hasn’t really felt real yet. Until now. Two weeks to go… I’ve got most things done, but there are still quite a few todo’s before the plane takes off. Have...
On a photo shoot – a wedding for example – I try to make the photos my own, bringing my style into the pictures. I’m going for the clean, sharp and creative photos that I like. But since I’m shooting on behalf of my clients, in the end of the day the most important thing...
Here’s the second part of the pictures from Jessica & Karl’s wedding day. (Click here for part one).
There was a blanket of fog over Stockholm as I got ready for Jessica and Karl’s wedding this Saturday morning. But as we – a couple of hours later – got out of beauty salon Puder in Vasastan, the grey fog had transformed into beautiful warm sunshine. We took a walk to Observatorielunden and Gamla...
Here’s a couple of teaser frames from Jessica & Karl‘s wedding yesterday. Check back soon for the full post.
This is going to be a short post. But a funny (and sad) one, nonetheless. I just wanted to share this link – a story about the world’s possibly worst wedding photographer. Today I’m shooting Jessica and Karl’s wedding. Hopefully not with the same results as Don Quixote above :-) Pictures coming up as soon...
The second part (here’s part one) of Sanna and Jan’s wedding day pics. The newlyweds are on their honey moon right now by the way – hope you guys have a great time!
October is a tricky month for weddings in the Nordic countries. You never know whether it’ll be warm or cold, sunny or rainy, snow or no snow. Or whether the trees will be incredibly beautiful with red and yellow leafs, or just plain boring without any colours whatsoever. On Sanna and Jan’s wedding day –...
Here’s a preview of Jan and Sanna’s wedding portait session yesterday. Full post coming up soon.
I’m currently in Ostrobothnia, Finland, waiting for tomorrow when Sanna and Jan are getting married. It’ll be SWELL! (Pictures coming up asap.)
A couple of days ago I met up with next weekend’s wedding couple, Jessica and Karl. It was the first time we met, and they were just as nice people as I expected them to be based on our e-mail conversations. They’re getting married in Björkhagen, just south of Södermalm in Stockholm. We’re meeting up...
