A Swedish wedding day has its own rhythm. The ceremony might be in a stone church, at Stockholm City Hall, on a jetty in the archipelago or in a barn on a farm in Skåne. Then comes the long dinner, often with a toastmaster, many speeches and songs from printed song sheets, and a first dance that may not start until late in the evening. In June and July it barely gets dark, which changes how the day can be planned and photographed.
We match you with an independent wedding photographer who works in your region, has photographed weddings of your size and style, and speaks the languages your guests speak. You send one request with your date and venues; we check who is free and send you a single proposal naming the photographer, the hours of coverage and the price.
The starting price of 14,900 kr covers a full day of roughly eight hours. Longer days, a second photographer, travel to an island or to Lapland, and add-ons such as wedding film or drone video cost more, and your proposal states exactly what is included before you book anything.
How it works
- 1
Send a free request
Tell us the date, the ceremony and reception venues, roughly how many guests and which languages you need. The availability request is free and carries no obligation.
- 2
We match a photographer
We check which reviewed wedding photographers working in your region are free on your date and whose style fits what you describe. We reply personally, not with an automatic list.
- 3
You receive a proposal
The proposal names the photographer and states the hours of coverage, what is delivered, the delivery time, the price including moms and the payment terms.
- 4
Confirm and plan the day
Once you accept, the booking is confirmed. Before the wedding you and your photographer agree the timeline, the portrait window, the family groups and what happens if it rains.

Where the shoot happens
In Stockholm, couples often marry in a church in Gamla stan or at City Hall and take portraits along the water on Skeppsholmen or Djurgården; the Stockholm archipelago suits summer weddings that arrive by boat. Göteborg has the old Haga district, Slottsskogen and the southern archipelago, while Malmö and Lund are close to the farm venues and beaches of Skåne. Medieval Visby on Gotland, with its city wall and rose-covered houses, is a classic summer destination; book ferries early. Mountain weddings in Åre and winter weddings near Kiruna and Abisko need more travel and a weather plan.

Preparation tips
- Request your photographer as soon as the date and venue are fixed; Saturdays in June, July and August go first.
- In midsummer the evening light lasts for hours, so you can plan portraits after dinner without rushing.
- Give your photographer the seating plan and the order of speeches so they know where to stand when each one starts.
- Write a short list of family groups and name a relative who knows everyone and can gather them.
- For an archipelago or Gotland wedding, check ferry times for the photographer as well as for your guests.
- If you want drone shots, mention the venue early: the pilot has to check airspace and local restrictions before confirming.
- In winter, daylight is short; put the couple portraits in the middle of the day or plan them with lights after dark.
Frequently asked questions
How much does a wedding photographer cost in Sweden?
Wedding photography through our team starts from 14,900 kr for a full day of about eight hours. The final price depends on the hours, the photographer, the season, travel and any add-ons, and is stated in your proposal. Our guide to wedding photographer costs in Sweden shows typical budgets, and the pricing page lists all starting prices.
Can I book photo and video together?
Yes. Wedding film starts from 19,900 kr and can be booked together with photography in one request. We try to match a photographer and filmmaker who already work well together, so they share the space during the ceremony and speeches without getting in each other’s way.
Do you offer drone photos or video at weddings?
Yes, as an add-on: drone photography or drone video of the venue, the arrival by boat or the guests outside. Drone flights depend on airspace, weather and local rules, which the pilot checks for your venue before confirming. Some places, such as areas near airports and parts of central Stockholm, are restricted.
How far in advance should we book?
For summer Saturdays, many couples book nine to twelve months ahead. Weekdays, Fridays and the shoulder seasons in May and September are easier. If your date is close, send a request anyway; we check availability before you commit to anything.
Does the photographer stay for the speeches and first dance?
With a full day of coverage, usually yes. Swedish dinners can be long, so it helps to share the running order. If the first dance is very late, you can add extra hours or agree to stage the first dance earlier in the evening.
Can the photographer travel to Gotland or Lapland?
Yes. Either we match a photographer who lives near the venue, or one travels to you. Travel time, ferries, flights and accommodation are listed separately in the proposal so you can compare. Sessions in Lapland and the mountains have a higher starting price of 4,990 kr because of the distances involved.
When do we receive the photos?
The delivery time is agreed in advance and stated in your proposal. A full wedding gallery takes longer to edit than a short session because of the number of images; many photographers send a small preview first.
