January favourites | Stockholm barnfotograf

I know, I know, it's March and I'm waaaay late with this post, but better late than never, right? ;)  These are my favourite personal images from January 2018.  Yes, some days it was ffffffreezing outside and I almost got frostbite in my fingers, and some days there was almost no light, but we powered though and I'm happy with the results :)

When are you happiest?  There are a few things that really do it for me: a great sleep, a meal my lovely husband has cooked, and making beautiful photographs!  I love to be outside exploring, and being outside taking photos is where I am in my element!  Do more of what makes you happy!  :)

Lifestyle family session in Stockholm | Familjefotograf Stockholm

This was one of my last photo sessions of 2017 and I LOVED it! 

It was a chilly November morning when I got to this lovely family's Stockholm apartment, but the welcome I got was warm.  This family was a perfect energy match for me!  They were laid-back, positive and open to all my suggestions.  They hung out on the couch with their delightful little daugher and their calm and adorable rescue dog while I photographed them.

For the sake of variety, we popped to the little park across the street where we got some gorgeous images of this little girl and her dog.   I was SO exicted about these shots, but somehow managed to 'stay cool'!  At least I think I did!  Thankfully, the mom and dad loved the same images I did and now have beautiful framed prints to grace their walls.  What beautiful memories of a fleeting time :)

2017 personal faves | Familjefotografering Stockholm

Out of all the photographs I take, the ones of my own children are always my favourite.  I don't photograph them every day (I don't want them to hate my camera!), but when the mood is right and all the elements come together, I will crouch behind my camera and photograph them as long as I can.  My ongoing project, A Jolly Childhood, featuring my daughters, is already a huge collection of work.  I thought you might enjoy the highlights of the 2017 section ;)
