I recently took on the task of photographing the little ones at Timotej Nursery  in Tullinge and it was great! I was a little unsure of how I’d manage to capture the essence of each child with so short time but it wasn’t a problem at all! I had a blast and the kids loved it! All the families will get to see 5-10 photos per child in a private gallery but some of the parents can’t wait and want a sneak peak! So while I’m busy editing all those images here are a few of my favourites of a few of the kiddies.

I recently photographed 6 month old baby Arvid from Tullinge. He’s just 3 days older my little Alice! At this age I’d expect to be photographing a baby laying on his belly, holding himself up with strong arms and IF I’m lucky, a sitting baby. But this little nipper didn’t keep still for a second because he’d recently learnt that he can use his feet and crawl around! It was so great to be able to capture this early milestone for his parents…and just check out his eyes, they are huge! I usually show parents a few shots in camera and I showed Arvids mum this first image and she said that it was really a typical ‘Arvid’ Expression!

In special appreciation of such a fabulous baby shoot I am now offering a special offer for baby shoots! Book your baby portrait session before the end of June 2012 for only 600 kr! The photo session shall be booked for a date between 30th July and 3rd September 2012. The photo shoot will be in a mini studio setting so the discount applies to babies less than 8 months old who cannot crawl or equivalent-we all know that babies find some pretty unique methods of getting around! I am already taking bookings for August so if you are interested in this offer then don’t wait too long to make your booking!

A couple of weeks ago, when we had that sudden snowfall, I photographed Carolina and Jake in Tullinge for their engagement photography session (their wedding is not so far away now!) With 3 beautiful little girls we had to get some family portraits and a few playful shots of each of the girls; Cloe 2, Ella 4 and Nova 6! Here are a few of my favourites after 10 minutes playing in the snow!

 

Yesterday I had delivered a pair of new baby studio backgrounds and oh so exciting! This morning I had a few minutes to grab some photos of my little Alice who turned 6 months yesterday and can now sit up all by herself! Oskar joined in for a few minutes too and of course where there is Oskar there is Hunden, his little dog who was the perfct model.

I am just about fully booked now until Midsummer but if you are about to give birth and are interested in a new born session (baby less than 2 weeks old) then get in touch anyway!!!

 

 

Brrr…it’s cold out! I’ve had enough of Winter already. I look forward to the Spring and all it has to offer, not least sunshine and green grass! But Spring isn’t so far away really, so if you are thinking of booking me for a family session, engagement session, or baby portraits then now’s the time to book…and you’ll be super glad to hear that I have a special deal! Book before the end of April for a session in Tullinge between 1st May and 30th June 2012 and get a 50% discount of the booking fee!

Yepp…a whole 50%! That means you only pay 450 kr!

After your session you are then invited to come to my new (hopefully finished by then!) studio/office in Tullinge for a presentation of your photos where you can see them in large format and be inspired with what you want to do with your pictures! No minimum spend or such horrid things here. You look, you feel, you choose. Get your booking made soon though before my slots are full.

This offer is not available on the Goldilocks portrait packages nor any of the wedding packages and cannot be combined with any other offers.

So for a little Spring inspiration I looked through my archives and came across these wonderful Spring photos of Tilda taken 2 years ago. This was a photo session with her sister and Tilda was dancing barefoot in a garden filled with wild blur flowers. It was such a lovely moment to capture, the innocence and joy of childhood. She was proud of her ballet moves.

For my fellow photographers and bloggers out there this collage was created using a Bridge/Photoshop plugin called Juxtapost…what a time saver!

Just a quick couple of photos I took of lovely Alice yesterday when my dear friend and photo collegue Anna came to visit!

I know I’ve been promising blogs for ages and I haven’t delivered… but I promise I’ve been busy! … giving birth! 3 weeks ago our lovely Alice arrived in the world. After regular prelabour contractions on and off for 5 weeks and a long labour Alice decided it was time at last! As they say, good things come to those who wait. She’s such a beautiful darling. Oskar loves her to pieces and just wants to hold her. He thinks it’s funny when she makes noises and says, “Hej hej Alice!” expecting a reply! So sweet! I was pretty out of it for quite a while after the delivery (photographed I should add by Juliana Wiklund) so it took me a whole 6 days to pick up a camera and I haven’t managed more since then. Heres my favourite of our delivery photos taken by juliana. Alice is just a couple of minutes old, lifted up to my chest for the first time.

…and now to some close ups of Alice, 6 days old.

7 days old…

and 2½ weeks!

It’s been a while since I blogged! I am now 8 months pregnant have a lot of difficulty getting around so I haven’t been able to photograph anything since the beginning of July. I’m keeping busy though! I have a whole lot of exciting things to blog, such a thank you card designs, book designs, new albums, my own family/pregnancy photo session and more…. I will try and post a couple of times per week from now until the baby arrives so keep checking in!Anyway, to the first of my blogs after the Summer… during my holidays I went to visit my brother and his family in Plymouth (UK) for the special event of baby Olivias christening! It was so lovely to see Richard and Katy with their beautiful liltte Olivia, who I have to say, is so like my brother when he was small! Well, with my limited ability to move (I was using crutches to walk at this time) here’s a selection of photos I took on Olivias special day.

Olivia is Oskars first cousin and so since I’m expecting a little one very soon it was so wonderful to see Oskars reaction to her. He just wanted to kiss her and stroke her all the time. I’m so looking forward to taking these type of pictures of my little ones together!…it’s not long to go now!

In the evening all the family went out for a pub dinner, English style! We were a little nervous as to how Oskar was going to take the evening but he found plenty to amuse himself with! Isn’t he so cute in his little suit!
