I’m an so honored to have one of my weddings featured in the latest issue of Amelia Brud och Bröllop! It’s Shervin and Azadeh’s amazing wedding at Villa Pauli, it was a swedish/persian wedding filled with glamour, love and l.o.t.s. of wild dancing! To see more of photos from their wedding click here!
Congratulations!
In the end of June I had the honor of shooting Carl & Katerina’s (swedish) wedding at Fullerö Herrgård outside Västerås. And in September I got to photograph their (russian) wedding in Moscow Russia. I knew the Russian wedding would be something different because the theme was Karl XII meets Katerina The Great but I really had no idea what I was about to experience. Arriving at the airport (with my sweet friend and awsome second shooter Anna) we were greated by a personal driver with an enlargement of one of my pictures from their Swedish wedding (all the guests was greated this way). At the hotel we had champagne, russian sweets and a free mini-bar in our hotel rooms! (Phew, the hard life as a wedding photographer…) And, they had also made a magazine about their Swedish wedding. With my images everywhere. Crazy!
The day of the wedding, we woke up to find they decorated the intire hotel with lifesize enlargements of my photos from their swedish wedding. Where ever I looked, I saw my own images. Strange feeling. The wedding day was incredible (to see the photos click here), Anna and I worked from early morning ’til 3 am that day. (Then we had an hour to download images before we had to head to the airport to fly back to sweden and shoot another wedding the next day.) Crazy! Again!
So the other day, I recieved a package in the mail – Carl & Katerina’s thank you card. Or should I say, thank you magazine. Becausse they actually made an entire magazine from their 4 day Russian wedding. Filled with photos and gossip! I’m speachless. Honestly, how amazing! ♥
Yes – you can even find a little photo of me in it…!

Wow vilket ambitiöst brudpar, älskar bilderna från det ryska bröllopet, dom är verkligen speciella

..soo how can you doubt that you are AMAZING!!! this is soooo wonderful! YAY!

Det är lätt att förstå att detta rör sig om två personer som tar sitt bröllop på allvar. Jättekul idé och snyggt genomförd. Dina och Annas bilder är outstanding! Blir jag hälften så bra som er kommer jag vara så nöjd! Ni äger i mina bröllopsfotoögon! Jag har funderat ett tag på hur du och Anna gör för att få till ljuset i era bilder. En touch av “solskimmer” eller vad jag ska kalla det (:P) och ändå så krispigt klara och färgstarka! Jag vill med kunna! :D
This is so cool. I had a look back at those old posts of this wedding and they are some of my favourites of yours. I love love love the ones taken during the ceremony and the costumes are out of this world. Stunning as usual
Last summer I had the honor of second shooting with [B]ecker, if you are a wedding photographer you know who he is but if you are not familier with the name - [B]ecker is a fabulous wedding photographer located in CA, USA. He’s a b.i.g. goofball and an true artist. He can really make his clients realax, he nail every shoot and with an open heart he shares everything he knows about photography – a big role model. You can find out more about him on his blog and if you’re a photographer make sure to check out the [b]-school.
I had been following [B]eckers blog ever since I started my photography business, but first time I met him was at his and Jessica Claires workshop in Stockholm last May. He invited me to come and second shoot with him at a wedding in Connecticut USA a few week later and obviously I was thrilled! Day of the wedding, however, I was nervous. Like “can’t-stop-shaking-think-I-might-throw-up”-nervous but [B]ecker was as cool as always and his beautiful girlfriend Keates was there as well and helped me out. The day was amazing. I work, hard. But I had so much fun doing it. And I learned soooo much. Thank you both [B]ecker (for the opportunity) and Keates (for helping me out)!
A few days ago, [B]ecker posted some “behind the scenes”-photos on his blog – you can see me and Keates on the left (with our ShootSacs), our beautiful bride and groom to the right and actually one of my photos on bottom left. To see the full post, head over to [B]eckers blog!

Gee, that’s pretty cool!!
How brave of you to accept to second shoot for Becker. Way to go!
How amazing, I bet it was a great learning experience, not that you need it!! P.S. love the bag!
Just recieved this picture in my mailbox – it’s the group shoot we took at Jose Villa’s and Gene Higas’s workshop in Tuscany, Italy this fall. This day we had all head in to Florens to photograph but, and this is a BIG but for a photographer, we were only allowed to bring ONE camera and ONE lens! Yikes! I decided to bring my new little Holga that I recieved the day before (thank you again Gene and Jose!) and 2 roll with color and 2 black/white – each with 12 exposures. All in all, 48 exposures in a plastic camera which has three focus steps (1 person, 3 persons or landscape) during my only day in Florens! But that day I found something. I can´t really explain what exactly. But it was a feeling, a uforic feeling. All from having to read the light, nail my composition and taking one single shoot. It was…magic. Photography magic. Don’t take me wrong, I still l.o.v.e. my digital camera and if you booked me for a wedding this summer – don’t worry, I won’t shoot it with my Holga. But my digital camera will never give me as much feeling as my lovely little Holga. ♥
Back to the images that I first started talking about, our group shoot:

LOVE this photo of us all:)) Can’t wait to see you again soon! xoxo
Awww…Just got chills looking at this photo and thinking back on that day. I’ll never forget when you got on the train and said, “I HAD THE BEST DAY!!!” and you were so excited. That day is one of the best days that I’ve ever had too. I miss you and everyone from the workshop! :)
