Tweens and teens

Tween Friends Photo Session | Stockholm Portrait Photographer

Friendship. Sometimes it’s long, short, challenging, fun, life-saving, heart-warming, uplifting, hurtful, surprising, or even unexpected. There are many things that a friendship can be. One thing is for sure, however, you will almost always learn something from each and every friendship you have in your life.

One of the best friends I ever had in my entire life was a woman approx 70 years older than me. I absolutely adored her. Friendship really can take any form.

This tween friend photo session happened right before one of the girls left the school. She is moving to a new neighbourhood and will be starting at a new school. The girls wanted to document this time of the three of them together before everything changes.

Can you imagine how they will feel in, say, 20 years when they look back at these photographs and remember how things used to be. It will be one helluva trip down memory lane that will, no doubt, trigger a thousand different memories.

That is the power of photography. It takes you right back in time.

“What i like about photographs is that they capture a moment that’s gone forever, impossible to reproduce.”
― Karl Lagerfeld

Tween and Teen Photo session | Stockholm portrait photographer

OK, talk to me… How are YOU holding up during this strange time? Has your life more or less carried on ‘as normal’ or has everything changed for you? Have you been able to meet up with friends and family? Can you still work? Are you practicing self-care and resting when you need to? Wherever you are and whatever your circumstances, I sincerely hope you are as well as you can be, and looking forward to better times <3.

As for me, I am currently sitting in my office, working my way through my to-do list and silently marvelling at the fact I have somehow kept the orchid that sits near my desk alive since November last year! A few weeks ago I was sure it was dead and then as if overnight, it had fresh new blooms on it! Happy days!

Maybe you’d like to see one of my most recent photo sessions? In case you’re wondering, all my sessions recently have been held outdoors and at a safe distance from my lovely clients. It was actually my second time to photograph this fun family. We decided to focus mainly on the kids and make it more of a tween and teen photo session, which I was very happy about as this age group is often overlooked in favour of babies and toddlers. Tweens and teens need to be photographed too and I, for one, am determined to put them back on the photography map ;)
