Teenage Family Session | Familjefotograf Stockholm

GOOD VIBES. They had it in spades! There was SO much laughter during this teenage family session in the suburbs of Stockholm! I actually had to tell them off for making me laugh so much! I was so happy when the mom of this family got in touch and told me she really wanted a family session before her teenage children begin to fly the nest. I do plenty of sessions with toddlers, but for some strange reason, some families don’t always prioritize getting portraits taken with their teenage children. And as I keep saying, this is such an important stage! These teenagers are on the verge of stepping out into the world to build their own lives. Now, just imagine, these parents are going to have so many beautiful images of their teenagers around their home to help remind them of all the good times!

Logistically, it’s always easier to plan a family photo session when all your teenage children are still living at home. Emotionally speaking, these years are fleeting (although it might not always feel like that)! There is so much change happening during this stage of your child’s life, it should really be captured. I like to do that in a fun, relaxed way ;)

I’m happy to tell you I’m now taking bookings for August. If you would like to book a session for you and your teenagers, please just get in touch via the Contact page above or mail sandra@sandrajolly.com and we can get you booked in.

Peace and love xoxo

End of School Year Portraits | Stockholm Portrait Photographer

I’ve photographed three two-year-olds during three family sessions this past week. It’s a fun, albeit full-on age group! It does make me wonder though why so many families have their babies and toddlers photographed but few book sessions with their tweens and teens? It’s such a shame! When you look at photographs of your two-year-old and then you look at your tween/teenager, does it not amaze you how much they have changed in that time? They are becoming young adults right before your very eyes! SO MANY CHANGES!!

The below photographs were taken during the evening in a local park over a one-hour period. That’s all it takes to create beautiful, timeless, natural images of your tween/teen. Trust me, you don’t want the only evidence of these years to be phone selfies!

You can always book a portrait session just for your tween/teen, it doesn’t have to be the entire family, but please, make sure you have some beautiful photographs from this period of your child’s life. All you have to do is mail sandra@sandrajolly.com or go to the Contact page above for more info.

Happy Outdoor Family Session | Familjefotograf Stockholm

The energy at this outdoor family session on the grounds of Rosersberg’s Slott was HIGH! It was my second time photographing this happy family, so it felt more like catching up with old friends than work :) And the best bit? The boys’ beautiful grandmother is on an extended trip to Sweden, so of course, we had to include her in the session! Grandma was an absolute NATURAL in front of the camera and hardly needed to be directed at all :) These charming boys may not realise it right now, but one day in the future, they will cherish these images of them with their grandmother.

Now is the perfect time to book your outdoor family session. If you’ve thought about it in the past, but never got around to booking a session, now is the time. As we all know, life can change on a dime, and tomorrow is never guaranteed, so feel free to get in touch via the Contact page above or at sandra@sandrajolly.com, and we can get you booked into the Jolly diary.

Peace and love xoxo

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
