Vacation in Stockholm Big Family Session

Greetings! It is a huge honour when another family photographer asks you to photograph her big extended family! During the summer, a photographer all the way from Portland, Oregon, booked me to photograph her multi-generational family during their vacation in Stockholm.

We met at their Airbnb south of Stockholm and, as the great-grandparents weren’t so mobile, we did the entire session in the back garden. This was my favourite kind of family - high energy, positive, and up for lots of fun! They trusted me to direct them through the whole process and to my delight, the 90-year-old great-father told me at the end of the shoot that it had been a “wonderful experience.” Happy days for all involved!

I have done many of these ‘vacation in Stockholm’ photo sessions. They can be done at your Airbnb or various locations in Stockholm. What a great way to remember a once-in-a-lifetime trip, right?

Mail sandra@sandrajolly if you plan on visiting Stockholm in the coming months and would like to do a vacation photo session.

Peace and love xoxo

Sollentuna Family Photo Session

Greetings! This was a quick and fun family photo session on a beautiful spring morning. You must work fast with a baby and a toddler so the little ones don’t get tired or bored! And even though the parents were a little nervous in the beginning, I guided them and posed them, and within no time everyone was having fun! :)

Even though this season of life, with a baby and a toddler, can be very intense, isn’t it worth investing in professional images of your family unit? This time is so fleeting, don’t delay capturing it.

Peace and love xoxo

Mother's Day, Sweden

Greetings! That special day, Mother’s Day, is fast approaching here in Sweden. This year it will be celebrated on Sunday 26th May. It’s a day to honour all the moms, who do their best every single day.

If you’d like to do something special for this occasion, why not book a portrait session? This could be for mom and kids, the whole family, beautiful portraits of just mom, grandma and the grandkids, or any combination that celebrates motherhood. All you need to do is send me a message via the Book Your Session tab or mail sandra@sandrajolly.com, and I’ll be happy to send you my beautiful 2024 Portrait Session Guide.

Below is a small selection of some of my favourite mom images. I hope you enjoy!

Peace and love xoxo

Snow Photo Session

Greetings! It’s been a long winter here in Sweden! We’ve had very low temperatures and LOTS of snow. Apart from heavy rain, I will happily shoot in most weather conditions, so I was delighted when this lovely lady got in touch and said she wanted a snow photo session with her partner :)

Winter sessions are much like all my other outdoor portrait sessions. The main differences are that they are slightly shorter, and warmer clothes are a must. Like all sessions though, I provide a style guide with helpful tips on what to wear. This lady also said she wanted a nice building in some of the images. With that in mind, I suggested a castle in a park near me and that’s what we went with! Despite the chilly weather, we had a laughter-filled session and I’m happy to report this sweet couple loves their final images :)

If you’d like to book a Jolly portrait session, indoors or outdoors, go to the Book Your Session tab above and we can schedule something in.

Peace and love xoxo
