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

Outdoor family snow session in Stockholm | Familjefotograf Stockholm

Another beautiful outdoor family photo session from a wintery Stockholm! This mom mailed me as soon as it started to snow and said she REALLY wanted a snow session! Our last family photo session together had been in spring, so when she saw the snow she knew she wanted some in her new family photos :). And look how beautiful they turned out! We worked quickly (you have to during snow sessions) and now she’s got some lovely winter wonderland photographs to display in her home.

You see, photo sessions aren’t just for summer or autumn. Those seasons can be beautiful too, but if you plan on having regular family photo sessions (and you absolutely should!), then why not make use of all the seasons?! And remember, photographs are the gifts that keep on giving. What else do you have in your home that brings you joy every time you look at it, even years later?

If you are considering celebrating your family, a portrait session is a perfect way to do just that. Feel free to get in touch via the Contact page above or mail me at sandra@sandrajolly.com. Don’t be a stranger.

When you book TWO family photo sessions! | Familjefotograf Stockholm

Sometimes you really want to get your entire family together for a portrait session, but they live in different parts of the country and can’t all get together for a specific date. What do you do then? You book TWO family photo sessions that’s what!

That’s exactly what the sweet mother/grandmother of this family did. She’d seen my work at an exhibition, loved it, and started plotting to get the entire family together for photographs. Logistically, it proved difficult to gather everyone for one day, but this woman was not deterred! We soon worked out dates and times and had one family session at the end of autumn and the other at the start of winter! I’m happy to report she now has lots of beautiful Jolly photographs to fill her home, and need not feel so far from her family :).

If you appreciate how important family portraits are, feel free to get in touch via the Contact page above or mail me at sandra@sandrajolly.com. I hope to have availability from mid-February. Don’t be a stranger ;)

Peace and love xoxo

Fun Autumn Family Session | Stockholm Family Photographer

When it comes to photographing people, I notice there is a pattern in the kind of people I like to have in front of my camera. They have a certain openness, are unguarded, smile and laugh easily, don’t take life too seriously, have positive energy, and bonus points if they laugh at my bad jokes! ;)

If you were to have a family photo session, what would you look for in your photographer? You would want someone who would make it a fun experience, right? I mean, we’re not pulling teeth here! We are creating family legacies! As I often say, photos are rarely significant at the moment they are created. It is the passage of time that makes them priceless. In 20 years’ time, this family will look back at these images and wonder at how much everything has changed!

Feel free to get in touch via the contact page above, or mail me at sandra@sandrajolly.com, to start planning YOUR Jolly portrait session.

Peace and love xoxo
