Here’s a first peek at the wedding I shot last Saturday in Svärdsjö in Sweden.

Twas fantabulous.

Would I be able to capture a Swedish wedding the same way I do Australian ones? Oh, the pressure. Well, I hope I did. I still haven’t edited any photos, but I had to show you this one.

I can’t even begin to tell you the magic of “kulning”, a local way of singing, but I can tell you the aussies at the wedding were all stunned. I’ve never seen so many semi-drunk people go quiet in a fraction of a second. It was like telling  a Queenslander the bar just ran out of XXXX Gold. I heard some of them talking about it after the reception and they all felt like they had experienced something extraordinary.

And it truly was.

To understand this photo, you should read about kulning here and listen to this example:

You will see more of this wedding soon, but I just felt I had to upload this one as soon as possible. Please view it large for better detail.
