Relaxed Lifestyle Family Session | Stockholm Lifestyle Photographer

Apologies for the radio silence around here… I took a break from social media for a few weeks. There is more to life after all, right? ;)

When someone gets in touch and tells me they want to book a relaxed lifestyle session at home with their gorgeous twin boys, as the kids’ grandparents are going to be in town for a few days, I start packing my camera bag! Grandparents and grandchildren were finally reunited after a long time apart. The grandparents patiently played with their happy-go-lucky grandchildren and I had the honour of documenting it all. The boys had a lot of energy to burn off, so we made a quick trip to a nearby park and captured some more priceless family photographs.

Whether you want a lifestyle session at your home or you’d prefer an outdoor family session, I can help you. All you need to do is mail sandra@sandrajolly.com to to the Contact page above and we can start planning.

Peace and love xoxo

10 Of My Favourite Teenage Images | Stockholm Family Photographer

Teenagers. They’re often sadly overlooked when it comes to portraits. Everyone likes to have their babies, toddlers, and pre-tween children photographed, but for some reason when it comes to teenagers, documenting those fleeting years is not always prioritized. I get it though, if you have lots of cute photos of your young children, it might be that getting a portrait of your 15-year-old doesn’t feel so important - they probably have lots of selfies anyway ;). Or maybe the teenager in your family just doesn’t want to be photographed. Us parents know, however, that much will change during those teenage years. They enter that phase as a child and leave as an adult. Everything changes during that time!

My approach to photographing teenagers is quite laid back. I don’t ask them to do big cheesy smiles. I chat to them, get them comfortable and photograph them just as they are. I can promise you when this is done right, those teenagers will look back on their portraits in years to come and be so grateful to have natural, timeless images of them in their youth. Wouldn’t we all have loved that?!

10 Of My Favourite Ever Moody Images | Familjefotograf Stockholm

How do you feel about moody images? Personally, I absolutely LOVE them! There’s something about them that just draws you in, makes you curious. One of the most memorable moody images I’ve seen in my life was a black and white photograph of a man sleeping on a sofa, with a window behind him. It was almost dark in the room and his features were indiscernible in the shadows, but there was something about that image that really made an impression on me…

I thought you might like to see 10 of my personal favourite moody images (I have a LOT, but had to narrow it down!). I love when families contact me especially because they love my moody work! Those are my favourite kind of images to create :)

Include Your Pet in Pictures | Familjefotograf Stockholm

She really, really, really loves her dog. Can you even imagine how much she will cherish these images in years to come? She will look at every single one of these photographs and her heart will burst not just with love, but with a plethora of beautiful memories.

In this past year especially, many families have welcomed a puppy into their home. What a beautiful addition to the family, but also to family portraits. I absolutely love when my families include their canine friend in their family pictures. If you have recently extended your family by way of a puppy, why not book a Jolly family session, and we will get some beautiful pictures of you with your new pet :)
