Britt-Marie & Per - And why I love my job and clients

Those of you who know me in real life or have followed my blog for some time, know that I took a giant step professionally some time ago. I left my daytime work as a tax lawyer to become a full time photographer. I have a small business on my own, run everything by myself and share studio and office with one of my best friends, Sandra Birgersdotter. But, the changes in my life don't stop there. This past year I have done a long journey also in my private life and even though I always will be the same person I definately see things a bit different now than I did only a year ago. Again, those of you who know me know at least some of what I'm talking about and for those of you who don't I can only say that I have gone through a divorce. So, now it's said. I will never be the kind of person who discuss such private things on internet but at the same time, it has affected who I am today. And, beacuse of the end of my own relationship I have thought a lot about love, relationships, why it works for some but not for everyone, what I want and what I have to give, and I think that my insights also reflect on other relationships, such as those with my clients.

Last fall when I told my close friends about the split up I was questionned more than once if I would find it difficult to photograph weddings again but my absolute answer to that was "No, not at all!". The reason why? Well, regardless of what I have gone throught I still believe in real love, life, happiness, the joy of giving and something that I haven't thought about as much earlier as I do today - to live the moment and accept emotions as they are, here and now, regardless of whether they are good or bad. I also believe that you can't fake an image of real emotions and working with so many couples in love gives me a huge vitamin injection as far as believing in love is concerned! So, that's one of the reaons why I love my job and my clients, they all make me feel alive and positive!

Britt-Marie and Per, you are no exception and I am so happy I will be photographing your wedding at Södertuna slott in about a month! You and your love are real and make me feel alive! /Linda

A beautiful bride's boudoir photos as a Private Gift

Yesterday this beautiful bride became someone's Mrs and I am happy to show you a few photos from her boudoir session in my studio. The photographer she had booked cancelled the photo session just hours before their appointment and great colleagues told her about me. I am so happy for that and I'm sure her husband will love both these and the rest of her photos!

Early morning with Birgersdotter for Nyfiken Grön

Two weeks ago I put my alarm at 4.45 am to get up for an early morning shoot in Kungsträdgården in Stockholm with my photographer friend and colleague Sandra Birgersdotter. She did a fantastic session for Nyfiken Grön and I just L.O.V.E. blossoming magnolia and cherry trees so I was happy to come along! Don't miss the full post on Birgersdotters blog!

And yes, we had fun! From left: Camilla, Sandra and Maria.

Winter sunset - wedding photography with love

A couple of days ago I promised to blog some sunset photos from a winter wedding and here they are. I just love, love, love the natural sun flare and the warm light 40 minutes before sunset! To all photographers out there reading my blog I can add that the photo above and almost all other pics in this post are shot with one of my favourite portrait lenses, Canon 85 mm f1.2, shot in manual mode wide open at 1.2, shutter speed 1/4000 and ISO 100. During the post processing in Lightroom I have increased the contrast and the blackness, decreased yellow and orange, added some extra warmth and adjusted the exposure and made the photo a bit lighter (and of course sharpened for webb).

Anna and Joel, I hope you love the photos and I have to say that it was pure joy to be with the two of you for an one hour photo session on your wedding day!

I love to photograph details and this time I put the wedding rings on some large and dried seeds from a bush. The same bush can also be seen just below the photo of the rings. For most of my details shots I use Canon 100 mm f2.8 macro and so I did also this time.

The two photos below are taken with one of my other favourite lenses, Canon 135 mm f2.0 (as usual shot wide open).

Book a boudoir session and feel absolutely amazing!

Personally, I like to be in control and yes, one of the effects from that is that I don't like to be photographed if I don't know what the photo will look like. At all. And that's it. But, at the same time, it's an amazing feeling when I see a photo of myself that I actually like and it does something special for my self confidence that almost can't be described! So, even though I say I don't like to be photographed I have a kind of constant secret wish to get beautiful photos of myself and I think the hate-love relationship I have with the camera makes me understand the many clients that book me for a boudoir session. For someone that never have been photographed professionally before it might seem intimidating to take these kind of photos but I promise that the end result will give the self confidence a boost!

I never post boudoir photos without getting permission from the client and when I asked this gorgeous bride about it she swiftly replied that "You don't know what your question does for my ego :-)!" and then she thanked ME! But, come on, I'm the one that should thank her for allowing me to post this, she is so beautiful!
