WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER & VIDEOGRAPHER IN STOCKHOLM & SWEDEN
I offer both wedding photography and wedding videography, either separately or as a combined package where the entire day is documented in the same style and narrative. Many couples in Sweden are looking for a wedding photographer who can also create a wedding video, so that the planning, execution, and final result are all cohesive. That’s exactly how I work, which allows me to document the day as a whole, from the preparations to the reception.
I’m based in Stockholm but work on weddings throughout Sweden. For more than ten years, I’ve documented over 100 weddings in settings ranging from urban areas and the archipelago to manor houses, castles, and international destinations.
When photography and videography are planned together, the result is a smooth workflow where nothing competes for attention. You’ll have a clear plan for the day, a discreet presence during the wedding, and a final product where photos and video come together to form a cohesive story.
On this page, you can read about how the service works, what’s included in the packages, and what the process looks like from initial contact to final delivery. If you’re looking for a photographer who can capture your wedding in both photos and video, please feel free to send me an inquiry, and I’ll get back to you with my availability and a proposal.
WHY COUPLES CHOOSE TO BOOK PHOTOGRAPHY AND VIDEO TOGETHER
Many couples want both wedding photos and a wedding video, but also want a smooth and organized workflow throughout the day. When the same person plans both the photography and videography from the start, the result is a cohesive record that flows seamlessly in terms of style, narrative, and structure.
I work as a wedding photographer and videographer in Stockholm and throughout Sweden, and over the past ten years I have developed a style where photography and videography blend seamlessly. This means that important moments are captured in the right format without anything feeling rushed or disjointed.
What happens when the same person takes photos and shoots video?
Throughout the day, I switch between photography and video depending on what’s happening in the moment. Some moments are best captured in still images, others in motion and sound. Experience determines what tells the story best.
For longer segments such as the wedding vows, speeches, songs, and dancing, we use additional cameras and professional audio recording. This ensures that the entire ceremony and key moments are reliably captured, while allowing me to work creatively without missing a thing.
WHAT IS INCLUDED WHEN YOU BOOK PHOTOGRAPHY AND VIDEOGRAPHY?
You’ll receive a comprehensive portfolio featuring both photos and video, all presented in the same style and narrative:
• A large gallery of edited wedding photos from throughout the day
• A highlight reel that captures the atmosphere, movements, and sounds
• Separate videos of the ceremony and speeches in their entirety
• A coordinated workflow where planning, visual style, and delivery are seamlessly integrated
This package is ideal for couples who want comprehensive wedding photography where the structure, my presence, and the final results are carefully planned from the start.
HOW DO YOU KNOW IF YOU SHOULD BOOK BOTH PHOTOGRAPHY AND VIDEOGRAPHY?
Not every wedding needs both photography and videography, but for many couples, the combination is a way to preserve the day more vividly. Video captures voices, movements, and the atmosphere, while photos capture the quiet moments and the details.
A combined approach often works well when:
• You want to be able to relive the conversations, laughter, and movements later on
• The day includes several important moments that you want to remember in their entirety
• You value documentation that is both tangible and visible
• You don’t want to have to leave out parts of the story
For smaller weddings or shorter events, photography alone may sometimes suffice. For full-day events that include the ceremony, dinner, and reception, many couples choose both photography and videography to ensure a more complete record of the day.
WHAT COUPLES SAY
A wedding couple on their experience with photography and videography
“Wow!! The photos and video are absolutely amazing. We’re so incredibly glad we chose both photography and videography—it feels like we’re reliving the whole day all over again.”
— Johanna & Fredrik, wedding on Fårö, Gotland
What couples say about their photography and film
“We’re incredibly happy with our amazing wedding video and drone footage. David captured all the important moments without being noticed. Communication before, during, and after the wedding was smooth and professional, and the package was completely tailored to our needs. The video and audio for the ceremony and speeches were perfect.”
— Anna & David, wedding at Marhill Estate, Skåne
BENEFITS OF BOOKING PHOTOGRAPHY AND VIDEO TOGETHER
Hiring a photographer who offers both wedding photography and wedding videography provides several clear advantages during the planning process, on the wedding day itself, and when the final product is delivered.
You’ll get a more cohesive collection of images where the visual style, narrative, and atmosphere all come together. The same person plans the day based on both photos and video, which reduces the risk of important moments clashing or feeling rushed.
This also means:
• Fewer people to coordinate and simpler communication leading up to the wedding
• A smoother workflow on the day, with no tasks competing for attention
• A consistent style and narrative in both photos and video
• A clearer structure from planning to delivery
• A final result where photos and video feel like parts of the same story
For many couples, this makes the process both easier to plan and safer to carry out, while also strengthening the overall quality of the documentation.
Portfolio – Wedding Photography and Videography from Across Sweden
Highlight videos give you the chance to relive your wedding day—from the small details to the big emotions. Here, you’ll get a sense of how I approach wedding videography in a documentary and cinematic style, where authenticity and presence take center stage.
Johanna & Fredrik – A Full-Day Wedding on Gotland
• Location: Fårö, Gotland
• Type of wedding: Full-day
• Package: Photography and videography
• Number of guests: approx. 80
• Style: Documentary
This wedding on Gotland was documented through a combination of wedding photography and videography over the course of a full day, from the preparations through to the reception. The focus was on candid moments, movement, and the celebration.
Anna & Tim - Full-Day Wedding on Gotland
• Location: Nygårds Manor, Gotland
• Type of wedding: Full-day
• Package: Photography and videography
• Number of guests: approx. 70
• Style: Documentary and authentic
An intimate wedding in a rustic barn surrounded by greenery and open fields. Quiet preparations, a ceremony in the great outdoors, and a warm, intimate atmosphere throughout the day. As evening fell, the barn transformed into a lively celebration filled with speeches, laughter, and dancing under strings of lights.
What kind of wedding do you want?
Every wedding has its own unique vibe. Some couples prefer a documentary and natural style, while others want something more cinematic, artistic, or romantic. I’m happy to tailor the photography and videography to your personalities and the vibe you want to convey.
Feel free to share your thoughts on style and vibe, and together we’ll create something that truly reflects who you are.
WHEN IS ONE OR TWO CREATIVES SUITABLE FOR PHOTOGRAPHY AND FILM?
Every wedding is different. That’s why I offer the option of working alone or as a team of two, depending on how the day unfolds and the type of photography you’re looking for.
The goal is always the same: to create a cohesive narrative in which both photos and video capture the essence of the day.
ONE CREATOR – PHOTOGRAPHY AND FILM IN ONE PLACE
At many weddings, it works perfectly for me to handle both photography and videography myself.
This ensures a smooth workflow, a consistent style, and a cohesive record that flows seamlessly from start to finish.
I often work alone at weddings, covering everything from small gatherings to larger all-day weddings with up to about 140 guests.
With experience, careful planning, and the right equipment, I can capture both photos and video without disrupting the day or interrupting the flow of the event.
This approach works particularly well when:
• The day has a clear schedule without many overlapping activities
• You want both photos and video to have a consistent tone and style
• You prioritize presence, discretion, and a smooth workflow
• You want cohesive documentation rather than maximum coverage
This is a safe choice for most weddings where the focus is on emotion, the overall experience, and natural photography.
TWO CREATORS – MAXIMUM COVERAGE AND MORE PERSPECTIVES
For larger weddings, fast-paced events, or days with many concurrent activities, having two photographers can provide greater flexibility and coverage.
I’ll be working alongside an experienced photographer whom I’ve collaborated with on many weddings.
We’re in sync when it comes to our photographic style and workflow, which ensures that the photos still feel cohesive.
This approach works best when:
• There are a large number of guests
• Preparations are taking place at various locations
• Several activities are happening simultaneously
• You want to capture multiple angles during the ceremony, speeches, and reception
• You want maximum coverage of the day
With two creators, more situations can be documented at the same time, while maintaining a consistent visual style across photos and video.
NOT SURE WHICH PLAN IS RIGHT FOR YOU TODAY?
You can always start by describing your vision for the day, and I’ll help you decide what works best.
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.

2. Planning & Booking
Once we’re on the same page, we’ll go over the day’s schedule together, either via email or a video call. As a wedding photographer and videographer, I’ll share my insights on timing, lighting, the flow of the event, and the overall plan, and answer any questions that come up. Once everything is finalized, I’ll send you a digital contract, and a 20% deposit will be 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. My focus is on the emotion, the details, and the overall experience. The finished wedding film is typically delivered within 2–8 weeks, along with photos that reflect the day exactly as it felt.

These packages reflect the most common needs for full-day weddings and clearly outline what’s included, how the day will be documented, and the level of service you can expect. At the same time, we can always tailor the package to your specific day, venue, and how you want your story to unfold.

Whether you’re planning an intimate wedding or a larger celebration, we’ll create a package that gives both photos and video the attention they deserve.
