Midsummer family get-together on Ingarö | Stockholm children's photographer

If you've been following the Jolly blog (and I sincerely hope you have!), you will, no doubt, recognise some of the faces in this photo session.  I love documenting this family.  This time round we did the photo shoot on the picturesque island of Ingarö.  Despite my near miss with an angry family of ants determined to crawl into my pants, we had a fun-filled shoot with a happy, angelic-looking little girl.  When you're almost two, all you need is your parents to swing you up in the air and some old teapots to play with.  Happy days.

Swedish gorgeousness at Ulriksdals Slott

Although most of my clients are international, more and more Swedes are booking the Jolly experience!   This super-smiley Swedish family of six met me at Ulriksdals Slott for an outdoor photo session a couple of weeks ago.  I knew the minute they sat in front of my camera that it was going to be an easy shoot.  The very first frame out of the camera was perfect!  The four siblings had so much fun together and two of them couldn't stop laughing for the whole shoot ;).  Mom and dad loved their pictures and have already decided where they are going to display their enlargements.  A photo shoot is just a couple hours out of your day, but the memories and images will last a lifetime.  Don't put it off.  We can never assume we'll have a tomorrow. 

Bubbles, cupcakes and lots of fun | Täby children's photographer

When this sweet, gentle mom and her gregarious husband invited me into their beautiful home in Täby for a photo session, I had no idea it would be a game changer for me!  As much as I love classic portraits, I have a special place in my heart for documenting real family life.  Being able to photograph a family in the comfort of their own home as they bake, play and just enjoy each other is a beautiful way of preserving the moments that make up your life.  I can only hope more parents will choose this way of documenting their family.  I promise you, we will have a Jolly good time together!  Oh, and check out Grandma and her bubble machine! :)
