May 31, 2010 - 5:08 pm

Kip - There is no favorite here.

May 31, 2010 - 7:03 pm

Dean - The pink & blue tones are perfect, as is the backlighting (something which you nail in every shot) I dont know how you manage it but the sun always seems to play ball when you & your camera are at work.

May 31, 2010 - 7:11 pm

Per Pettersson - Wonderful! Photo #5 is one of the most beautiful ones I’ve ever seen… So good inspiration!

May 31, 2010 - 7:16 pm

Cheers

Mark.

Hannah - Hej Jonas,

Vill bara berömma dig för dina underbara bilder som förmedlar så mycket känsla och passion.
Royalist som man är, önskar jag att Du skulle fotografera det stundade kungliga bröllopet i Stockholm. Du känns som en fotograf som skulle göra både dagen och de inblandade rättvisa.

Önskar dig och dina en underbar sommar!

Hälsningar från ett försomrigt, underbart Stockholm!

May 31, 2010 - 8:40 pm

Solveig - Älskar höjdbilden med trädet! Färgerna, stämningen, kompositionen allt är helt fantastiskt! Du är ett geni som kan göra så mycket med så lite.

It’s just amazing. Great work!!

Steve Koo - That fifth shot down is killer. Good stuff, Jonas.

June 3, 2010 - 4:37 am

Human - Jonas, very nice pictures as usual :)

The first two photos. Are you using a flash to light their clothes and hands? Or is the sun so weak at that time of day that you just can play around with aperture or use a grey-filter?

June 4, 2010 - 3:46 am

ashley parsons - seriously, jonas. it’s been far too long since I have seen your work. as always, it boggles the mind to get a glimpse of your creativity. much love from us!

Brooke Fitts - LOVE!!!

June 6, 2010 - 6:02 pm

Jonas - @Human: Yeah, this is very close to sunset, so the light is not as harsh. I don’t use reflectors or flash.

June 7, 2010 - 10:58 am

Bridget Francis - I started trying to remember which particular shots to highlight in my comments but actually as I worked my way down the page I realised that actually they’re all stunning! AND loving the blue shoes!

June 8, 2010 - 12:27 pm

Komal Powell - gorgeous! I really really like the portrait on the mountain(?)–in Texas, we don’t see many of those. It looks like they were both illuminated by two openings in a cloudy sky. breathtaking! I hope the couple has a HUGE print of this!

June 8, 2010 - 10:25 pm

Ros - ah, a Paul Smith groom! i love it when the groom shows their sartorial side. beautiful photos.

I had a great day yesterday. I always feel extremely honoured when another photographer chooses me to shoot their wedding.

May 16, 2010 - 12:49 pm

David Redding - Classic dude! Simple, great light…what more could you ask for from a great portrait?

May 16, 2010 - 7:07 pm

May 16, 2010 - 7:09 pm

Karen Buckle - omg – blown away – i LOVE this one

May 16, 2010 - 9:12 pm

Stephen Cameron - This is a fantastic photograph Jonas and I think you’ve captured Clair really well. Photographers can sometimes be the hardest subjects because they’re so used to being on the other side of the lens…

It was great to meet you yesterday and I look forward to seeing more :)

May 16, 2010 - 9:59 pm

Lauren - Stunning! Such a pretty portrait, and lovely light!

kristen - Stunning.

May 18, 2010 - 3:13 am

May 19, 2010 - 10:01 pm

*Mette* - GORGEOUS!

May 20, 2010 - 6:39 pm

Eliza Claire - This is as near perfection as it’s possible to get. I’d hire you, based on this photo alone, never mind the 10,000 other amazing shots I’ve seen of yours.

May 21, 2010 - 8:34 am

May 10, 2010 - 9:57 pm

scotty - money

May 13, 2010 - 6:24 pm

Jo - Jag är glad för din skull, att det verkar gå så fruktansvärt bra för ditt fotograferande, ditt företag och din familj. Och dina bilder är lika fantastiska som alltid. Du verkar lyckligare nu än någonsin.

Men jag saknar verkligen din gamla blogg och alla dina inlägg om allt möjligt. Fyra ankor och en röv, Nålen, Being John Fiskovich, Julafton 1979. Och dina bilder som inte var bröllopsbilder utan bara fantastiska små snapshots från livet i Australien.

Du förändras och bloggen förändras. Till det bättre för dig men till det sämre för dina läsare.

Lycka till

Samuel Burns - Brilliant light, loving it.

kick off

I’ve been a bad blogger lately. Mainly because I’ve been busy working, but also because I’ve had some time off. This is actually the last weekend I have off in I don’t know how long and I’m trying to enjoy it as much as possible. At the same time I’m very much looking forward to all the weddings I have ahead of me this year. I’ve shot four already, but it feels like the real season starts now.

And I’m ready.

Next weekend I’m shooting a wedding on Bethell’s Beach in New Zealand and I can’t tell you how excited I am. The bride, Zilla, and her partner, Jon, couldn’t have chosen a more beautiful place. I admit I just wrote the last sentence to be able to write bride Zilla, but still. Bethell’s Beach is where they shot the movie The Piano and even though I’ve never been there I have seen photos. It will be very different.

February 21, 2010 - 3:32 pm

Rebecca - Can’t wait to see the photos!

February 21, 2010 - 4:18 pm

Paul Von Rieter - Bride-Zilla, Very funny. I am sure you will rock it. Can’t wait to see.

February 21, 2010 - 10:31 pm

Solveig - Låter jättespännande! Jag kan se “Piano-miljön” framför mig..hoppas brudgummen liknar Harvey Keitel (fast med mer kläder..) Det skall bli kul att se dom bilderna! Lycka till!

February 21, 2010 - 11:09 pm

Dennis Pike - right on, looking forward to what you’re going to create this coming year. For this post I just keep picturing the training montages from “Rocky”. Jonas, running up a bunch of steps with a 70-200 in each hand for weights.

February 24, 2010 - 6:20 am

Oliver Collinge - You seriously have a bride named Zilla – that’s hilarious.

February 24, 2010 - 4:40 pm

Marco Correa - Ha ha ha ha, really funny, expecting to meet Zilla!

February 26, 2010 - 11:13 am

brett maxwell - there are many people hoping you survive this hectic year. it will be awesome to watch how you change and grow. just don’t go crazy.
