Autumn Family Portrait Session

I was so happy when this mom got in touch to book an autumn family portrait session! I had photographed them a few years previously, and since then they’d had another addition to the family. I also recalled the fun energy of the family and the fact that the mom never complained about anything, and was so appreciative of my time and work. All these factors combined made me so excited to meet and photograph the family again! :)

Sure enough, they had the same great energy, and the kids were so sweet and charming. I suggested a location north of Stockholm, and we just happened to get one of the last days of the glorious autumnal colours! Just look at all the rich colours in every shot! This mom is also wonderful at choosing clothes for her family sessions. She ensures she includes layers, a complementary colour palette, and lots of textures in the clothes. All important things to think about when planning a session outfit!

Vacation in Stockholm Photo Session

Greetings! There’s been a growing trend these past few years where people on vacation will often book a local photograher for a portrait session in the area they are visiting. I’ve been honoured to do many of these ‘Vacation in Stockholm Photo Sessions’ :)

A couple of months back, a sweet grandpa from Chicago booked me for an extended family portrait session in Gamla Stan, Stockholm. There would be a family reunion involving grandparents, their adult children, and, of course, several cute grandkids. We met as early as we could on the first windless day in Stockholm in months! We explored the charming and relatively quiet Old Town before it was overrun with tourists.

We walked, talked, and created beautiful family memories. Afterwards, I sent the grandma her gallery of images, and she was delighted! How nice it will be for this family to have all these (non-selfie) family portraits for many years to come!

If you or someone you know is planning a trip to Stockholm and would love to book a ‘Vacation in Stockholm’ portrait session, don’t hesitate to get in touch via the Connect tab above.

At Home Baby Session

Greetings! We’re expecting the first snow of the season here in Stockholm today. It is bitterly cold out there - brrrrrrr! That makes this the perfect time of year to create portraits in the comfort of your home. That’s what I did with this sweet young family... We created some images in their home before stepping out to the backyard for more family images..

As well as individual and family portraits, I also photograph events, from large private parties to corporate events. If you need a reliable photographer, mail sandra@sandrajolly.com and we can get the ball rolling!

Stockholm Family Photo Session

Greetings! Usually, I photograph families who live in Stockholm. Sometimes I photograph families who are visiting Stockholm on holiday, but every now and again, I photograph a family who are leaving Stockholm! That’s what this family is doing. Their time in beautiful Stockholm is coming to an end and they wanted to mark the occasion by having a fun family photo session in their beautiful neighbourhood, Gamla Stan, or the Old Town, as some call it.

If you are thinking about having a portrait session in Stockholm or its suburbs, especially now during autumn, you are welcome to reach out to me at sandra@sandrajolly.com or via the Book Your Session tab above. It really is a beautiful time of year for outdoor portraits :)

Peace and love xoxo
