FJÄDERHOLM ISLAND , STOCKHOLM MAJ 2011




During a short visit in Stockholm last may I visited for the firt time the little island of  Stora Fjäderholmen, about 20 minutes with the boat out on the archipelago. On the island there are several cafés/restaurant. During the spring time birds nest here and wherever you go you see seagulls or gooses. REally cute to see how to take care of their eggs, among all the toursit having picnic and sunbathing.

Handycraft shops and exhibition are part of the attractions on the island. Even a whisky distillery  (Mackmyra Swedish Whishy) can be found there.

NEW MEMBER IN THE FAMILY

Exactly 3 years ago Agnes and Arvid came to my old studio for the first time to have taken the parents wedding pictures. This year it was little sister Ruths turn to be photographed with her baptising dress. Nevertheless big brother Arvid and big sister Agnes had a great fun playing all together. So here the best shoots from the session.
Once again I want to point out that children pictures can be that fun and relaxed if the parents are calm and let children be children, without pushing them doing this or that. To force a child to smile in front of the camera or to force them sitting down on a chair will never turn into THAT PICTURE. Children stress and feel the pressure of the parents. I do take all the time that is needed to make the child feel comfortable. Sometimes it takes longer to connect with the child, sometimes it goes fast. 
I always give parents compliments when I see how they interacte with their children. It's important to let them know they are doing a good job. Cooperation as in everthing leads to good results.

So thank you Svante and Marie for beeing good parents!

MICKEY MOUSE / LUKAS

This was so funny. Instead of using my Mikey mouse mask to make Lukas smile, it was Lukas that wanted to have it and did me and his parents smile. Check it out!
