not aliens nor drowning

Breath – I haven’t been seduced by green aliens or drowned in work! Although one might think so due to the lack of posts here lately… But don’t worry – I’ve done shoots, travelled to both Moscow and Copenhagen and played around with film a bit more. So much fun! Here’s a little film sneak peak for you all while I prepare some more blog posts for you…

Stephanie

boudoir / morgongåvefotografering

I wish I got to do more boudoir photo shoots! But not with women who’s getting married, I think every women should have beautiful photos of themselves!! I find beautiful angles, flattering light and boost a woman’s confidence by highlighting her best assets. Don’t know why we’re all so focused on the negative parts of your bodies?? Ignore them and enjoy the best parts instead – so much more fun! :D

Hanna

I might be a bit non objective on the subject but I think a photo says it all! Imagine a blog without snapshots? A newspaper without image? A job application with a picture? Hanna hired me to capture her and her personality and I’m happy to announce that she’s still in the running for her dream job! Her straight A grades might have something to do with it but I prefer to think that the photos should get some credit for it as well! ;D

Astrid & Shelby

This winter I did my first visit ever to WPPI, it’s a biiig annual photography convention in Las Vegas, USA. Actually everything about it was big – big hotel, big platforms, big trade show, big lines at the food court…

01as_blog

It was a bit overwhelming for this little girl who grew up in the middle of no-where. I needed a time out from everything “big” and went outside for a moment. Next to me sat this adorable women who radiated some sort of magical calmness – Sherry Pickerell. We started chatting and it turns of her daughter is coming to Sweden this summer for an exchange program! Hello “it was meant to be”!  We kept in contact and a few days ago I got to meet her adorable daughter Shelby and her “host”-sister Astrid for a shoot in Old Town with City Hall as our backdrop! Call me spaced, superstitious or a nut but I truly believe it was meant for me to meet Sherry Pickerel there on a sidewalk outside the MGM in Las Vegas. It just was. ♥

    Alicia, I can not thank you enough for this amazing gift! You captured every bit of each of the girls personalities and made me feel as if I was there being a part of my daughter’s Exchange experience in the beautiful country of Sweden! You are such a wonderful person and photographer! So glad to have met you!

Bentley’s engagement session

sorry, Cherrie and Lars's!

I don’t know what it is about Aussies that makes them so darn loveable. Is it all the vegemite sandwiches that makes them so cute, or all the salt-water they’ve swallowed while surfing? It’s almost worth making my own yukky sandwhich and pooring lots of salt in my drinking water just to get a pinch of that aura that makes me luv them!

01LCblog

I know Lars luves them too, well at least he luvs Cherrie. And Cherrie loves Lars, no doubt about it. Why else would a girl leave long beaches and sun for dark woods and no daylight during winter? Well, this is Lars and Cherrie’s engagement photos (even if I did have to control myself and not take too many photos of their cute little puppy Bentley and turn this into his shoot!)! ;) Cherrie is a photographer herself and my legs were shaking before we started shoot, no seriously – I was a pain towards Boyfriend who drove me there! “Shyysh, don’t talk – I need to focus!” “Well, say something – if it gets all quite I’ll get to nervous!” “Don’t you know I need some peace and quite to be able to focus?!” Hehehe! But lucky me, Lars was so happy just beeing on one of his lovely boats, Cherrie was as happy as always and thanks to the amazing Mia Högfeldt looked even more sazzy (quick note to everyone who’s getting their pictures taken: professional hair and make-up does ALL the difference in the world!). Ok, so I will stop blabbering and start showing you some of the photos we took (even if I’m so nervous I might be sick)…. Cherrie my darling, I hope you like them because I will have to clean our appartment for probably 3 months to make up to Boyfriend for the way I treated him!! ;)

    Gorgeus pics! Just as lovely as always. And i L.O.V.E. her outfits – and shoes – how lovely to shoot a photographer who also has a sense for what looks good in photos!!

    Cute, fresh, warm and – voff! Well done Alicia AND Cherrie!

    So beautiful pictures ! My heart melted when i saw the dog.

  6. Cherrie Coutts 07. Jul, 2011 at 5:59 pm #

    Alicia, I don’t know how to thank you. You have given Lars and I something we can treasure forever…. even something we can put on our walls, and as you know… not much makes it onto our walls. To be immortalised in pictures along with the man of my dreams and our baby is something that goes beyond incredible. If you’e lucky enough, I might just treat you to a lesson on how to eat a vegemite sandwich the REAL way. LOL Much love and a big hearted thanks, C Lars and Bentley. xoxo
    Raoul, this could not have happened without you. I know you probably didn’t get much work done on the day like you had planned, but it didn’t go un-noticed. Bentley simply adores you and we are forever grateful that you were able to be a part of this experience. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. xo

    How amazing this evening at “Torskobben” in Stockholm archipelago turned out to be and that very much thanks to your and Raouls dedication to persuade us (or was it me? :) to go the extra mile to get the right settings for this event! I really like that drive, professionalism and then on top of that your way of working with us made me loosen up and very quickly enjoy what we were there to do. Awesome job Alicia! Photos to keep for life.
    Thank you

Fredrik & Karin

soon to be married

I’m not tall, I know. When my niece was born I was only 1 meter taller then her. (Which my sister happily pointed out to me as often as she could.) It’s not my fault, it’s in the genes which I actually concurred by being a head taller than my granny. But when I meet tall people like Fredrik and Karin I wish I had “Doctor Gadget”-legs!

1blog_fredrikkarin

But I don’t so I guess I have to bribe someone to come along to their wedding and just carry around a high stool for me. Haha, picture me crawling up and down a high stool makes me a bit nervous to be honest. Yeah, not photographing their wedding wearing a dress!

ramona + rasmus

soon to be three

There must be something in the air, or an extra ordinarily amout of power failures about 9 months ago because babies a popping out every other day around me. Fine be me – as long as I get to play, cuddle and sing corny songs and not have to deal with used diapers or late night (all night) crying I’m considering it a win-win situation for me. :D Here are a few “pre-pop” images of Ramona and Rasmus, “after-pop” photos to come…
