Tea and a cardamom cookie in the fading afternoon light. / Te och kardemummakaka i eftermiddagsljuset.
I took these photos 1,5 years ago, just before my friends Linnea & Erik moved out of this apartment. For some reason I never got around to editing and publishing them. I found them now and thought they deserved to be shared. Their cat tried to photobomb every single photo but I managed to snap some without her. Last year I photographed their new apartment in Malmö for the magazine Hus & Hem Retro, soon I'll share those shots too.
More random shots from Japan. Can you tell I was kind of hungry when I selected these? (Also, that's Mount Fuji covered in clouds to the right in the second shot. I mean, as if you couldn't tell.)
One of these days I will get around to sharing the images from my brother's wedding, this is one of my favorites. I just wanted to let you all know I'll be back in Sweden this summer and I'm available for weddings! (My portfolio is still in the making, but you can see a selection of wedding photos here for now, and in the "weddings" category here on the blog.) As always I'm happy to travel anywhere in the world. Email me for info & quotes!
I dove into my Japan photo archive today to start re-editing photos for a little project and just wanted to share these randoms with you. I still think about going back every single day. Hopefully it will happen sooner rather than later...
This past weekend, I took a tour of Stockholm's city hall and was reminded that I still haven't posted Stacey and Daniel's wedding photos! It was the coldest "summer" day ever back in June and they were such troopers. They had decided to celebrate their day just the two of them, so it was an honor to be a part of it. I'd love to shoot another wedding at the city hall, the courtyard is full of great backdrops.
I am working on a new portfolio site and found this photo when I was looking through my archives today. It was taken right before I moved out of my apartment. I had just sold my yellow sofa and decided to rearrange the room one last time. I wish I had thought of this arrangement sooner (I don't even think I ever sat down there), I really liked it.
I usually prepare a full year summary on the blog, but this year I just don't feel like I have enough photos to fill it with and enough fun things to remember. So instead, here are a few random photos (that have already made it onto this blog before) from some of the highlights of the year. 2012 was the year I got to see my Chicago friends twice and fell back in love with the city, I spent a week in New York, moved out of my first apartment and put all my things in storage indefinitely, did bigger jobs (most of which I haven't even blogged!) and made more money off my photography but also took way less photos than previous years, attended and photographed a friend's wedding in the US and my brother's wedding in Spain, spent most of my summer not working, moved to Oslo and found myself a job and spent the final minutes of the year in the middle of a field in the Norwegian countryside surrounded by fireworks in the distance. Though the highlights of 2012 were indeed high, the lows were very low, so I won't miss this year. Thank you so much for your continued support and encouragement despite my ever decreasing presence here. Let's hope 2013 is a good one!
