HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!

Although a bit late, we would like to wish all our customers, visitors of our homepage and blog, as well as all our friends a very happy and prosperous New Year!

For us the previous year has been an outstanding one! Not only we have had the honour of cooparating with customers-friends that trust us and keep on coming back to us year after year, but we have also gotten the chance to meet new ones, and that's always exchiting.
We have met new people, we have learned a lot through seminars, photo communities and practice, we have renewed our presentation in internet and the social media, and we have travelled a lot both in the country and abroad! It has been wonderful and we feel so privileged about that. Thank you from our hearts!

This year we are celebrating the 10 years anniversary since we started together, Mia and myself, our "Orasis foto". A lot has changed and been improved since that time, both in our company as well as in the whole photographic world.
We feel challenged and hope that this year will be an even better one, with more people to meet, more travelling and even higher standards to reach. But most important, with the same joy as during all the previous years!

At the slideshow above you can see a selection of photos from the lsat year.

The new "Allt om Bröllop"

We had the pleasure to see 2 of our pictures from Katrin and Olivier, and Caroline and Johan in the new edition of the swedish wedding magasine "Allt om Bröllop", which comes to the selves the 20th of January.





... and here comes the original versions:

Mommy's sweeties !

Some weeks ago i photographed U, who is pregnant in the 9th month.

The idea was that U would be photographed so that she had nice pictures from the tummy, but also to show in the pictures how beautiful and sexy a woman can be, even when the body goes through such extended changes. The pictures should look like studio/fashion pictures.

A nice album was made by them, in the like of "morgongåva" or "boudoir" photography albums, and is ready to be given to the father-to-be on Sunday, as a present for his birthday.

That's why more pictures can be added here only after next week, after the birtday (both his and the baby's :-) )!

New priests at the diochese of Stockholm.

Yesterday it was the first time for the new year to photograph the new priests of the Stockholms stift .
The ceremony took place in Storkyrkan i Stockholm, and was held by the bishop Caroline Crook.

New baby in the house!

Well, not exactly as it sounds but kind off ... !!!

We have finally, after a lot of "but" and "we see" decided that it's time to add the top "reportage" camera model of Nikon, the D3!




The cameras enorm capability to keep top quality on the images it delivers, even in really dark enviroments, its full format sensor that allows pictures that cover wider angles, plus the possibility to load the photos takenn in two separate cards, right the moment that a photo is taken (thus having instantly a back-up for events that can be repeated), are the 3 major reasons for having it in our camera bag!

I had the chance to use it first time last July, at the DN-Gala, and since then i have just been thinking of it!
New opportunities for beautiful pictures!!! :-)

(for those who would like to have a more thorough look at the camera, a presentation can be seen here)

Meet us at Grand Hotel!

It's only a couple of weeks left untill the Grand Hotel will open its doors for the new couples that are getting married in 2009.
For the 3nd year on row we shall be there, in the magnificent enviroment of the Grand Hotel, at Spegelsalen, place S:21, looking forward in meeting you!

Being lazy!

It has been almost a week without the sress of the work, the pictures that have to be delivered ... yesterday (!) and the not ending hours in front of the computer working on Photoshop!
It's almost too good to be true! :-)

Instead it has been many hours with the family and friends and as many hours in front of the computer just surfing for the fun of it (especially the early morning hours)!

Today we thought of putting some order in the computer.
We double checked that all the important files with photos are secured copied at 2 external harddisks and then i finally installed a new harddisk in our Mac Pro and copied in it (one more time) the previous harddisk with all its continents.

Such a luxury with 5 Gbs RAM and 1000 Gbs free space in the harddisk, ready for the New Years pictures!!! :-))

Happy New Year!!!

Best wishes from Maria and Georgios for a very happy, peaceful and prosperous New Year!!!
