WHY COUPLES CHOOSE ME FOR THEIR WEDDING PHOTOS AND VIDEO

Documenting a wedding is about more than just technology. It’s about experience, being fully present, and the ability to read situations that happen only once.

With over 10 years of experience, more than 100 documented weddings, and work both in Sweden and internationally, I have developed a approach that is calm, reassuring, and well-thought-out from the first contact to the final delivery. As an award-winning videographer, I combine cinematic storytelling with a documentary visual style, where authenticity always takes precedence over posing.

This is particularly appreciated by couples who want to let go of the reins and be fully present on their special day, knowing that both photography and videography will be handled in a cohesive and professional manner.

My style – Natural & present

I have been working as a wedding photographer for over ten years and have captured more than 100 weddings in Sweden and abroad. Through this experience, I am able to stay calm, attentive, and fully present, regardless of the pace, weather, or circumstances.

On your wedding day, I am there to support you without getting in the way. I know when to step forward and when to stay in the background. This allows you to stay present in the moment, while every important part of the day is captured with emotion and precision, without interrupting the natural flow.

My work has received international recognition and is often referenced within documentary-style wedding photography and film with a natural aesthetic.

My goal is always the same: to make you feel at ease throughout the entire process and to deliver photos and film that reflect your day as it truly felt.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Contact

At the bottom of the page, there is a form where you can briefly describe the date, location, and what you’re looking for. I usually get back to you within 12 hours with information on availability and the next steps. During the summer, many dates book up quickly—especially popular Saturdays—so it’s a good idea to get in touch well in advance.

2. Planning & Booking

As a wedding photographer and videographer, I share my insights on timing, lighting, workflow, and planning, and answer any questions that come up. Once everything is finalized, a digital contract is sent, and a 20% deposit is paid to secure the date.

3. Before the wedding

One to two months before the wedding, we’ll go over the schedule, venues, and key details. I’ll be there to support you throughout the planning process to ensure everything goes as smoothly as possible on the big day. Everything will be tailored to your vision, your priorities, and the atmosphere you want to create.

4. Date and Delivery

On your wedding day, I work quietly and discreetly in the background to capture moments exactly as they happen—natural, authentic, and full of life. Photos are typically delivered within 2–8 weeks after the wedding

Wedding photographer and videographer in Stockholm and throughout Sweden

I’m based in Stockholm and photograph weddings throughout the country.
From city weddings and archipelago weddings to castle settings, mountain weddings, and rural farms.

Over the years, I have worked in places such as Skåne, Gothenburg, Gotland, Dalarna, Åre, and throughout the Mälardalen region.
No matter the location, I plan the photography and videography so that the day flows smoothly and naturally.

I am also available for destination weddings within Europe.

    The packages are clearly defined and ready to go, but can be customized in terms of scope, number of hours, or delivery.

    Many people choose to tailor the program based on the schedule, venue, or whether the wedding spans several days.

  • The difference lies in:

    • If you book photography, videography, or a combination

    I have an established network of professional colleagues with a similar style and skill level who can be called upon in urgent situations.
