Modern Wedding Photography with a touch of Awesome

When Monique told Lee she wanted a hand made bouquet made of old brooches, Lee said, “I’ll make one for you.”
That, my friends, is a man of my taste.

I can’t wait to see more Jonas.
I love your work.
so nice, man. my favorite from you yet.
Very cool shot, love the composition.
This is amazing. If you could create a cool hallway out of thin air, this is probably what you would want it to look like. Where on earth is this?
love the way you use exposure as a compositional element!
Crazy good.
WOW, really love the tones!
So fresh and so clean, clean.
You’re rediculously awesome Jonas… can’t wait to see what you’ve been up to!
I can’t wait for this month to be over… :-)
Great photo !!
I love symmetry, so I love this.
This is so great, love love LOVE it!
Don’t work too hard ;-)
color, composition and emotion. you pulled the trifecta.
if this picture was music it would be techno. a techno love ballad. the best one ever made.
Så jävla bra – varenda gång!!!
Brilliant, Jonas.
Brilliant. Even on my little iPhone screen this looks superb. Brilliant location. The way you control exposure is top notch.
this looks pretty amazing jonas. i love the lines and symmetry.
This is so Urban of you! I love it. Cool to see something a bit different, but just as amazing!
oh snap
Wow, looks like a beautiful designed perfume bottle!
Snyggt! Inspirerade som vanligt!
Oh wow!! The leading lines in this photo are incredible!! Love it Jonas!!
And THAT is how you work a 24mm lens. Beauty.
This is a fantastic photo. I can’t wait to see more.
Simply stunning! Would love to know where this is!!
Cheers, guys. The photo is taken in an underground walkway under QPAC.
What a location!!!!!!! Love, love, loooove it!
Nice JP – Look forward to catching up with you after the madness! Keep up the excellent work!!!
Love the converging lines. Awesome as always!
Amazing light, composition, atmosphere and everything I can think of. Really cool!
dude… you are off the chain !
this hallway is amazing for any kind of photo but works amazingly well for this couple :]
I LOVE this picture!
Oh WOW! <3
Every day I come to your blog for looking for inspiration and it’s always there, right in plain sight. Awesome, Jonas
Now that’s cool! Btw. I have two simple questions; 1. What program do you use to create your collages? 2. What program do you use to create your slide shows?
I would really appreciate if you let me know:)
Thanks,
Rickard
1. Photoshop. 2. ShowIt Web
Thamks for the super fast reply.
Sorry to bother you, but I have now idea how to do it in photoshop. I just tried but just realized I will have to cope a lot to do it. I have to make sure the distance between each photo is exactly the same everywhere and I have to calculate so that I make the correct size on the photos when I wanna have three in a row beneath a big one. There gotta be an easier way huh?:P Btw. is it called collage? Beacause I cannot find very much about it on google. Do you have an instant tip on where I can find information?
I appreciate it a lot.
Rickard
Phenominal image Jonas…I love it on so many levels.
Nope, Richard, there’s no easy way. You have to decide what distance you want between your images and then create custom templates in PS.
Ok, Jonas, then I know:) Thanks. I found out a little more on how to use the grid and such )is that how you do it?)So I think I can figure it out:) Damn me and my laziness:P
Love it Jonas!
The lines in this photograph are AMAZING. You inspire me.
Wow. Awesome.
Quality image! Where on earth is this photograph taken?! In a hotel? Wherever it is, it is very unique!

that second image makes me want to hit the road. digging the tones, man.
This pictures gives me so much insperation! Thanks, you rule!
Oh yes.! The second one is wonderful! Great for wallpaper :)
I’ve always wanted to take a photo of one of those wind thingies, it is absolutely awesome!!
Love the second and the third one. The tilt-shift effect is so much worth for its magnificent bokeh!
Great, great photography.
Mm these colors. Wow.
i adore the windmill photo, the sky is so dramatic. lovely, as always it seems.
amazing
This was a really nice post.
As I was taking this shot of Erin and her mother just minutes before they left for the ceremony, I remember thinking how lucky I am. People let me into their lives every weekend, I see so much love and I actually get paid to capture it. I know I go on about this all the time, but I have a pretty fantastic job. My time in ad-land seems so far away at times. No more presenting ad campaigns to people who couldn’t care less, no more meetings with people who resent what I do, no more fake smiles and handshakes.
Instead love and happiness in abundance.

Very nice picture, and I find myself nodding in agreement – being a bagpiper at several weddings a year puts me in the same environment although not as intimate as you get to be. Underbart :)
Well put man. I know exactly what you mean. This is the life, and I’m sure lucky to be where I’m at now.
I should have seen your work long before now, but someone pointed me in your direction. There is a handful of photography I connect with – yours is a part of that.
Ben
The look in the mother’s eyes is absolutely priceless. You’re an ad-land recoveree and I think it’s wonderful you truly know how lucky you are…it’s real, it’s raw and captivating.
i agrees. though it also makes me a little nervous when it comes to the day itself – feel the weight of the responsibility…
love this image, the way that the one detail that is most important – the look in the mother’s eyes – stands out so clearly.
here’s my question… does amazing light follow you everywhere you go?
I completely agree. And the picture is awesome. Capturing a moment like this is what makes a great wedding photographer.
amen.
having a job that feeds the soul is very worth pursuing. glad you’ve found it.
Wonderful moment!
this picture brought me to tears
WOW! that look in her yes, it’s beyond.
She couldn’t care less about that corsage, her daughter’s about to be wed.
Beautiful photo with great window light!
What a wonderful picture! Which objective are you using? The light is amazing. You are so gifted!
Beautiful photo and wonderful post. We’re so lucky to be able to do what we do.
I hear ya about the cold, fake world of advertising! :-)

I love the picture with the twirling girls. They look so excited!
Great pictures, you´re surely talented! One question, do you use TRA for postprocessing?
@Mikael: I do sometimes, but not on these two shots.
