Bröllopsfotografer.com



We have just come back from a wonderful holiday in Greece, just to find our mailbox full of emails from friends and customers (not to mention all the commercials and the spam). it's always a joy to keep contact with peope and as nice to read emails with questions for photo-sessions, but just the idea of going through all the emails one-by-one to delete the unnecessary ...
And then, here it comes one that has long been awaited and the joy comes back! :-)
We have just received a confirmation email that we are also included at the www.brollopsfotografer.com where some of the best swedish wedding photographers are displayed!

The spring in Greece.



Well, this is a picture that i should have blogged a month ago, when it was still cold and icy in Sweden but the spring had already arrived in Greece.
I had forgotten how beautiful, shunny and warm it used to be every March-April, when i still lived there and i took everything for granted. It was my very best friend Giorgos Iliopoulos that reminded me of that beauty and i just keep on looking at this picture that i keep on the screen of the computer ever since.
But now it's as nice and almost as warm also here, in Stockholm! :-)

Photographing with [B]ecker.



















It was such a joy to walk around in the centre of the city and photograph our beautiful models!
Becker was leading by taking the first images, showing to us how he would photograph them and then encouraged each one of us who attended the seminary to photograph his/her own way.
Hötorget - Kungsgatan - Stureplan.
Lots of people gasped looking at some 15 professional photographers with a couple of biiig cameras and lenses each, photographing like crazy our "wedding couple". Some asked who the celebrities getting married were. They got dissapointed to know that they were "just" models! :-)

[B]ecker and Jessica Claire in Stockholm.


(note: photo by Brigitte Grenfeldt)

Some days ago [B]ecker and Jessica were in Stockholm for a 2-days seminar in wedding photography. Both of them are world-famous, extremely capable photographers and unparalleled in selfpromoting and establishing their names as trademarks!
The seminars were really informative and full of inspiration. As far as Becker's day is concerned, it was also full of teasing and laughing!

Ellen and Peter




Ellen and Peter live in Holland but they like Stockholm very much. So much actually that they desided to fly to Stockholm to get married!
I met them a couple of months ago for the first time, during a grey, cold and snowy day. We had some coffee at the centre of the city and talked a little about the photos during the wedding day. What stroke me was the way they were sitting/half-lying on the sofa close to eachother, holding eachothers hand while talking about their plans. Laughing and glowing the whole time!

Last week it was ...THE day!
Just look at Peters face when coming out of Stockholms Stadshuset, just after the wedding ceremony!!!

More, or rather really more photos coming soon. The day included, among other, almost an hours travel by carriage in the centre of the city plus a 3 hours cruise round Stockholm! And the weather was just magnificent!

Valborg.



The 30th of April it was the yearly Valborg holiday.
That's a tradition in Sweden that has it's roots at the 7th century a. C. and during which people all over the country starts big bonfires, with the accompany of traditional music and dance.
Hundreds of people are gathering arount the place of the bonfire and it's really interesting to see how the view of the fire affects them. People get magnitised, the eyes stuck on the bonfire, the faces become a little harder (and maybe a litlle scarier).
No wonder that fire had been considered almost divine for thousands of years!
