No photos or words in the world can describe the awesomeness of this day, this night, these people.
Nick and Surya.
“We are having a fun, vintagey picnic style wedding on a mountain in Colorado with BBQ ribs and tons of beer. It just seems like your style would be an amazing fit.”
I received that email in September last year and even though Nick and Surya thought I was based in Brisbane, California and not Brisbane, Australia, we worked it out.
Because this was meant to be.
Fast forward to the end of July and I’m driving up from Denver to Aspen, nervous but also happy and excited. I love what I do. As some of you know this is my second career, my fallback plan and it has changed my life profoundly. You all have made me a better man. People like Nick and Surya. And people like Erik, who flew up from Texas to shoot this wedding together with me. Erik is in my opinion one of the best wedding photographers in the US, so having him there with me meant more than you can imagine. Add the amazingness of Beth, the wedding planner and you have a day to remember forever.
I don’t know how to best describe this wedding, all I know is that I have met people I hope to stay in touch with for the rest of my life, so instead I’ll leave you with the song “Love Is A Big Deal” that Surya’s sister Miya performed for Nick and Surya’s first dance (iTunes). And also what Garland, celebrant and BFF, said at the beginning of the ceremony.
True love truly is a big deal.
“First, a word.
This is a celebration. This is not a sit on your hands, wait for it to be over, wondering what the readings mean wedding. This is a stand up and cheer wedding. This is a clap your hand joyous wedding. This is a day that you are a part of because you are awesome people and this is an awesome couple. and we’re to hoot and holler about that. So please feel free to be as joyful and raucous as you’d like. in fact, it is encouraged.
That being said, a thank you is in order. Thank you for being here. Thank you for the miles you have traveled and for making the choice to come today to celebrate. To support.
To love.
Your presence here is not taken lightly. You were invited to bear witness to this day because you are an integral part of this story. You are family, you are friends. You were there in those first months. You saw the glimmer. The spark in their eyes as they spoke of the other. “this is the one” they said. And over a glass of wine. Or on a cross country phone call. Or an email from a world away. You said “yes. And I couldn’t be happier for you.””
Such a lovely post and the photos are simply heart touching. Keep posting more blogs on wedding photography.More to go http://bit.ly/1zJJ9UU
Superb work Jonas!

Maddening what you capture with your glass, dude. MADDENING.

Great wedding photography in a lovely setting.

I can’t remember whether I ever commented on this post or not. I do remember though this was the first wedding I’d seen of yours JP, it floored me then and still does. Crazy good man.
Beautiful work!
wow. absolutely stunning work.
The best! :)
These are great! Some of the best wedding work I have found. Man your comments get a lot of spam though.
llevo viendo post de tus fotografías de boda así como 2 horas y voy a seguir un ratito más porque no quiero perderme ni una! qué gran trabajo, por dios!!!

chiałbym kiedyś Zrobić Takie Zdjęcia !
What I like about you is the time spent for the article with photos narando almost everything, nothing to do with what the Spanish do.
Demuestra Que ésto no es nada
My gosh. I just love this. Amazing, amazing, amazing!
Amazing location captured beautifully. I’d love to film a wedding at a location like this !
Amazing light. Just like everyone else already said.what a stunning image….the quality of light is outstanding and she’s framed perfectly between the trees. Awesome
These photos are amazing! A real down to earth quality.
Heeelt fantastiskt!!!! Nu gråter jag och känslan i den här berättelsen är oslagbar. Man blir lycklig.
Where was the wedding hosted in Aspen?
Loving ImagesGreat Wedding Photos with great some amazing effects, well done Jonas!
Crazy. You’re crazy! The party pictures are just out of this world.
Colorado seems like an awesome place. The setting, the location and the people all seem so much fun. Best of luck to the lovely couple. Nice shots.
I simply do not have words to express the wonderful images that you have captured. You are very inspiring :D

My favourite set to date!
I’m crying now… I believe you told the story just fine… <3
Stunning. Just inspiring. You’re amazing mate.
By far the best wedding album I’ve ever had the pleasure to look at. There’s just no comparison, and no doubt the fact that the wedding in itself was so original and fun added to the “wow factor”. You’re an amazingly gifted photographer, Jonas. Congratulations, in particular to the many awards you’ve won already during 2012. Keep up the good work.
Warm Regards
from beautiful Mexico City
you are such a fucking amazing photographer… my head is spinning..
Greetings from Uruguay, amazing photos (loved them all!)… I wish I could take pictures like you, beautiful and fresh. Congrats!
Gorgeous Wedding Photos, thank you so for sharing :)
Thync
I keep coming back to this wedding when describing your work to my friends.
It’s brilliant.
This is amazing!
I love the every shot, great work!
:)
Jonas – great work as always. Absolutely captivating! Oh and Surya…those shoes! Those beautiful orange shoes! I am in love. I would love to know where you got them! :)
Good job, fantastic…. thanks!!
Wow, what a fantastic day! These guys are so lucky to have amazing images to look back on.
Good story over again! I am looking forward for your next post:)
loving the light trails on the party shots
Wahouhhhh!!
I’m french, sorry for my english.
I love your photos.
I would like to know Which is the necklace of the bride because I loveeeee!!!!
How to contact the bride to have this piece of information?
Thanks thanks thanks!!!
Bravo for your work
Cécile
Hi there,
I absolutely adore your photography and I saw you traveled to many places around the world but I was wondering if you would ever travel to England to do a wedding here? And if so, how much would the basic package be that we’d pay? No date set yet just inquiring about prices so we can start saving. hope to hear from you soon!
Ellie
Awesome photos of a gorgeous couple, Jonas. Especially love the airstream shoes pic.
These are amazing photos. Well done, and thank you for sharing.
tsara be !
Maravillo trabajo. Saludos desde España :)))
Precioso!!! Beautifull!!! your work is a inspiration, as your mind and words…. cheers from Spain
i really like your work. Thanks for posting our movie! Talk to you soon.
Hi.. Do you happen to know where that true love sign came from? I am dying to find one! Thanks:)!
Amazing work…you have captured their day in a way that I feel I was right there joining in the celebration…love their attitude on life and your view in capturing it :)
Excelente reportaje.
this wedding is superb-ness.
when u see what won this years AIPP and then check out this website, you can be forgiven for being conflicted and confused…..great natural style!
Beautiful, inspirational, passionate.
I really loved you work. Great work!!!
Wow, incredible! Loving the T/S action, too… but loving all of it.
Comment #271.
Still #1 in my book my man. You and the wedding ;)
Wow. This wedding is absolutely perfect, and these pictures are breathtaking. Amazing work!
Love the toning of your images! Excellent work!
que belleza de BODA!!!!!!!! de pelicula!!! y que bien captados los momentos!!!!!! son increibles tus fotos!!!! felicitaciones!!!!!
Fantastiska bilder! Jag är mycket imponerad. Det är väldigt kul att gå in på din blog lite nu och då och bli inspirerad av ett riktigt proffs!
Wow. Not only do I want to be best friends with the bride and groom – I want to kiss the photographer – this is simply beautiful and makes me smile and tear up at the same time!
Oh wow. Your work is amazing. Thanks for sharing this with us. That’s truly inspirational.
awsome pictures, this my first time in your blog, and i love it.
best.ever.
Just browsing all your galleries. Have to get back to work but just brilliant and the same kind of the we are looking for…
I got chills looking at this. Love every single detail about this!
p.s. true love IS a big deal and i’m stoked to see that be such a big part of what you share, whether written or photographed, throughout your site…
enjoyed every minute of it…. as i’m sure they will for a lifetime!!!
So very very beautiful. One of the best sets of wedding pictures I have ever seen I think. You are clearly very very talented.
UNDERBART! Igen! Och jag är SÅ glad för den andra chansen på seminariet i Göteborg nästa vecka!! Åker från Skåne lite tidigare än planerat, via Götet och sen hem till Sthlm. Men det passar bra att avsluta semestern med en västkuststrip! :D
holy crap that was good
tears and i don’t even know them. beautiful work!
Most brilliant!
Jonas, A-MA-ZING! The wedding looks fantastic and your work in portraying the happy couple and their loved ones is just…well, I’m lost for words. Hope that it’s ok that we borrowed your photos (you’re credited of course) for our blog.
Skithäftigt!! Aldrig sett något liknande, du bryter verkligen mark.
I am inspired to the point of having chills. Bravo, beautiful, amazing.
you have done great job.perfect timing picture perfect
Very cool!!!
Hej Jonas.
Dina bilder inspirerar mig otroligt mycket just av den anledning att det går rakt igenom hjärtat. Det är få fotografer som lyckas få till bilder med samma känsla, närvaro och helhet som du får. Jag fotar mycket själv och liksom du försöker jag skapa mitt egna fotostil.
Tack för dessa fantastiska minuter.
Wow. Some of the best wedding pictures I have ever seen. Vilken känsla du har förmedlat som att vara på plats och uppleva allt själv.
Perhaps the best wedding album I’ve ever seen. They look so relaxed and having fun. Truly a celebration about the couple and their friends, not about the wedding as a process.
If you don’t mind my asking, what lenses did you shoot with? Looks like quite a few were taken with a wide angle, ~24-28mm??
Stunning.
i’ve never seen such wonderful moments captured so beautifully. You’re pictures are unlike anything i’ve ever seen. I have to fight back tears when I look at them because they are so beautiful. Every wedding you shoot is like a fairy tale and every picture is so perfect because they are so real and in the moment. They make me hope I will find true love one day!
Jag har inte besökt din blogg på ett tag nu, men en vän länkade så studsade självklart in här. Jag har aldrig tidigare rörts till tårar av bröllopsbilder. Dina har varit nära, men de här… är fantastiska. Det är en sån känsla, en helhet och även om jag missar de ord som sägs så är jag ändå där, orden behöver inte sägas.
Du har helt enkelt fångat känslan. Underbart gjort. Du är grym och en av mina främsta förebilder.
Ha en toppendag och ta åt dig varenda kommentar här!
Fan va bra foton du tar, blir fast så fort jag ser bilderna!:)
Keep up the good work.
/N
I was just tearing up at my desk and thought where was here 3 years ago. I am enraptured in your photos and thought process, fan for life!
Annette
Very Very Very beautiful!!!!!!!
enhorabuena gran trabajo ….bufff .
Dude. I found you after reading through American Photo’s top 10. This is stunning, truly inspirational imagery that makes me want to pick up my camera and try harder. Unbelievably mindblowing work my friend. Congrats on making the top 10… you definitely deserve every ounce of it.
Hi there! Your pictures are absolutely stunning! This wedding is exceptionally beautiful. Im not getting married any time soon, well at least for the next couple years. Just wanted to know if you ever come to Canada? =)
Lovel pictures!! So beautiful
I keep coming back here because this is the most amazing wedding I have ever seen!
I’m a photographer too and I need to say that is the most incredible wedding photos that I ever seen!
Your work is awesome!!
amazing. you are inspirational.
Beautiful photos… You wouldn’t happen to know who designed her dress do you? It’s gorgeous!
I am blown away! It just gives me inspiration.
Stunning wedding in every way
It truly looks as though this wedding was a joy to be a part of from start to finish. Lovely job!
really amazing work!! i love it!
I don’t cry, because it’s for wussies. I cried after viewing this and couldn’t stop. Your work is pure perfection and beauty entangled in the life of those you capture. So gorgeous!!
Desde España te mando una sonrisa en forma de admiración por este increíble trabajo, completo y magnífico. Como siempre, enhorabuena.
what a fun story, thanks for sharing. totally inspired.
wow. just wow.
These wonderful beautiful photos made me cry of happiness. And I don’t even know the couple! Fantastic!
Fantástico! o seu trabalho é a essencia da palavra “insight” …ato ou resultado de aprender a verdadeira natureza das coisas, enxergar intuitivamente.
espero um dia fotografar assim.
Abraço!
This made me want to get married tomorrow.
By far the most beautiful pictures I have seen in my life
and I have seen my fair share as I do this whole “look at wedding blogs” thing alot.
LOVED every photo.
:)
Breathtaking!
Spellbound. !!!
I love these photos. Sometimes I look at them just to get happy!
Wow! I love the sensitive of the images. I want to move this feeling to mi spanish weddigns.
Just looked back at these. They’re still stupid good.
Wow, this wedding was really amazing! Looks like it was a wonderful day for everyone…
oh.my.god.
I am truly blown away, Jonas. My mom has been shooting weddings for 20 years now. She is very good. But, damn dude. This is top notch! What is your primary rig?
I am blown away. My mom has been shooting weddings for about 20 years. She is very good. But, damn dude. This is top notch. What is your main equipment setup?
Great, love your work Jonas! The Tilt and Shift work is lovely! These weddings are very stylised, they must be a joy to photograph! I shot a wedding in your native Sweden at Kalmar earlier this year, check it out :)
stunning work.. stunning couple.. fab wedding
this is your calling in life. keep telling the stories. thanks for sharing. it’s beautiful.
I love the flowers in the mason jars. Very pretty.
Absolutely amazing, you didn’t miss a moment. Congratulations on such a beautiful result.
omg jonas, you are one clever cookie. how you manage to capture such beauty and joy is still utterly beyond me. i feel like i know these peeps and have been a part of the happiest day of their lives. THAT is a big deal.
I have never seen anything so beautiful in my life as these photographs.
You can feel the joy just by seeing them.
Do you happen to know the typefaces used in the plywood sign?
Riktigt schysta bilder! jättekul att se! man ville verkligen vara där!
I love the summer dresses looks awesome
Your photos are awesome. Wonderful portayal of a truely beautiful couple.
I’m just speechless. Amazing shots! The best wedding ever!
Congratulations to the lovely couple!
Your work is fantastic!
I love Your work! Great colour, nice images and composition. Great work.
Jonas, I just had tears in my eyes looking at your beautiful work. What a fantastic story you have put together about this couple and their special day. Really wonderful work.
Tror inte att jag gråtit av foton tidigare men jag hoppas jag har råd att hyra in dig som bröllopsfotograf den dagen jag gifter mig. Vackert.
Den vackra låten ihop med de fantastiska bilderna fick mig att gråta, på riktigt.
Så äkta, känslorna och stämningen går rakt igenom bilderna.
I need NEEED to win/earn/steel some money cos I want WAAANT you to shoot our wedding!! I actually found it hard to watch some of your shots because they move me too much! Fantastic!!
This is the most beautiful wedding and wedding photographs I´ve ever seen.
OH.MY.GOD! I’m speechles. I really dont know what to say. All I can say is that I’m proud to come from the same “stadsdel” in Gotheburg as you. Haha. Kind of. This ia a work of genius, more than so – this is magic.
The pictures are incredible, love every single on of them. And the short dress of the bride is the best dress I have seen in a long time. Sooo cool!!
Thanks so much for sharing, wonderful!!
Viele Gruesse, Kristina
You know, I read your blog. And I follow you on the twitters. And aside from being extremely talented, in a style that is completely your own, I think you have the best attitude in the biz. It’s no wonder people hire you from half a world away.
ABSOLUTELY LOVE ALL OF THESE. WOW.
are you at all interested in doing 1 on 1 workshops? what i mean is that i’d pay to meet you.
it’s crazy to me that while scrolling through these photos i felt as though i was right there along with them, completely immersed in such profound love, joy and magic of that day. no other wedding photo i’ve seen has EVER brought me to that place, so thank you so so much for sharing these with us! it’s a testament to how extremely talented you are.
Unbelievable! That was amazing!!!
Best. Wedding. Ever. No comparison. Thank you Jonas for sharing it with such passion and conviction and awesomeness x
This wedding makes me a little breathless, as if i was there. If I could ‘have’ someone elses wedding, this would be the one. Beautiful wedding and beautifully captured.
the most beautiful wedding work i have seen you do. and yes, i can see why this might have been your favorite wedding ever. i am blown away
Awesome pics. This wedding looks like it would have been a blast. Perks of the job hey!
… nice work. Excellent!
this wedding IS MAGICAL. thank you so much for sharing. LOVE IT.
absolutely gorgeous! what an amazing wedding how cool!
effin’ incredible. you really lapped this one up, and rightly so , what a amzingly stylish and love-filled event.
you are my new hero :)
Seriously crazy amazing! I get so much inspiration from your images! This is such a beautiful wedding and you have captured it so well.
I probably looked at this post 20 times before I could find words for it. It is flat out beautiful in every way Jonas. I am inspired both by your photos and their obvious love for each other. A perfect match for sure.
you are amazing, beyond words… this wedding and the photographs are so magical. and what’s almost as magical: the time it took me to scroll through these pictures was the exact length of the song. it stopped playing as soon as i got to the last picture :)
Helt makalösa! Vilket underbart bröllop det verkar varit, och du har överträffat dig själv!
My heart skips a beat every time I see these.
also – listening to it while looking at your photos – GORGEOUS-VILLE.
that song. total cries-ville.
Words cannot do this wedding justice…
Holy moly you are taking wedding to a whole new level…you’ve clearly been busy! It takes a lot these days for me to look twice at a wedding, and this one definitely caught me on the fly…amazing, and so so cool! i bet they loved these images.
Well then… the 2 of you make up one super human camera wielding person!! :)
Gifter mig på fredag. Önskar jag hade råd att leja dig! Hur bra bilder som helst!
Så vackert, så vackert! Du har verkligen fångat alla känslorna.
Even though I had a great photographer for our wedding, your shots make me kick myself every time I see them for not knowing of your skills when I was choosing for my own special day….you truely are inspired and inspiring.
Jonas, you absolutely rocked this wedding! Simply gorgeous! Beth did a fabulous job as coordinator. It was wonderful meeting you that day.
You’re ridiculous. Those pictures… That wedding… Beautiful doesn’t seem to cover it, nor amazing. So I guess I’m at a loss for words. But, man, do I feel the love.
Beautiful! Looks like you captured the fun and excitement of the day like nobody elese could!
Tror jag säljer allt och drar med “Amerikat-båten” efter att sett dessa bilder!!! Du kan verkligen fånga ögonblick, känslor, färger och mycket mera som inte går att beskriva i ord.
Beauty. Perfection.
this is so beautiful, it drives me to tears.
helt otroligt.
Really super gorgeous and moving.
Om jag någonsin fotade bröllop som höll din standard skulle jag vara världens lyckligaste! Men, tills dess är jag glad att du låter oss ta del av det underbara :) Tack!
Det är med stort nöje jag följer din blogg! Du är vanvettsduktig! Men i de här bröllopsbilderna har du lyckats bräcka dig själv! De är helt OUTSTANDING! Du har fångat stämningen så himla bra, jag fick tårar i ögonen själv…
WOW, this wedding is EPIC! I LOVE it.
beautiful work, Jonas.
Underbart fint. Mållös, fullkomligt mållös!
Jonas… wow!
Wow JP! No kidding… This is easily the most comprehensive wedding on your blog, perfectly captured, composed, exposed, executed and processed! How many images is the final delivery? Thanks for sharing your awesome vision with the industry :-)
your awesome :)
Wow Jonas… just… wow. Got a little teary looking at these! Love the one with the shoes on the back of the Airstream – those clouds look like they’re rollin right out of the window!
Unbelievable! Amazing work sir.
Oh, I didn’t do it all, Tenielle. I had a brilliant second shooter, Erik Clausen. He deserves half the credit.
Impossible. Impossible for one person to do it all… and do it so well?! Apparently not… this is blissfully, splendidly, wonderful in every possible way.
Impossible….impossible for one person to do it all….and do it so well?! But apparently not…. this is blissfully, splendidly wonderful in every possible way.
so lovely. and just quietly you’re a rockstar with the flash.
Hi, Jonas. I m a long time reader, first time poster, but today I had to comment. The way you shoot weddings makes me wish I was there. Makes me wish I could have been part of all that joy. Your pictures sparkle with happiness and truth, and there is no higher prise I can think of. Thanks for sharing that with us.
Found your website through Elisa’s tag on her facebook page and had to check out this wedding. Wowee, such a great concept and I LOVE THE SONG!
Wow! So authentic. Lovely song.
this is too good.
Great work!
This is just amazing. Completely amazing.
Looking at the pictures with your choice to let us listen to the song sung for the first dance, made tears in my eyes. You have beautiful eyes for the world my friend.
oh man oh man oh man! i know you already had a big feature on this fabulous wedding, but if there was a sweet music list to share or the two love birds want to gush about any of the music details, i would LOVE to have this on hi-fi weddings :)
every single image is magical!
i wish i could get married again so you can photograph my wedding. thanks for sharing this.
I love everything about this wedding!! We can feel the love through your images which are absolutely amazing to look at! Good job!!
i haven’t been so emotionally touched by photos in my life. you are incredible! so many techniques i’m asking ‘how did he do that?!’ but then i just realised, you know how to get into relationships and people. stunning. absolutely stunning.
Awesome awesome set!! Love the setting, and the couple, and the emotion in your photos
hi jonas, it’s me, surya’s mom. thank you for saving the magic and beauty of the day. your work brings it all back. the photo of suri waiting for nick to see her for the first time captures her from birth to that moment– breath held, hopes and dreams realized. and somehow your presence was also a part of it all. you weren’t just the photographer– you were a participant in the celebration. they loved you from the moment they found you. yup, meant to be.
Just amazing. I’m really speechless.
wow that is truly an amazing wedding, makes me want to get married all over again
****!!!!!
I look at this work and I just want to swear at you. Screw you man. Screw you for being so good! ;-)
Extraordinary work!!
You have represented my beautiful state of Colorado well, Jonas. Excellent job!
Really, how hard can your job be?! You get the best looking couples having the most amazing weddings to photograph…:p
I can’t wait to hire you for my wedding vow renewal in America. You’d be worth every penny.
I actually cried, looking at these photos.
Between your amazing, evocative photos and those incredible opening words, I am tearing up. You are seriously something else.
Simply stunning in every way!
We wander for distraction, we travel for fulfilment.
lovely…
True Love is a Big Deal – Love it! ….Amazing work Jonas – as always.
best ive seen. impeccable. incredible.
holy shit balls.
I looked at every image, read your words, cried (a little), and then felt glad that you are setting the bar so high for the rest of us to work to, I cant wait to see what comes next, how or if you can top this (insane thought!).
Way more than a touch of awesome here! i LOVE your work!
that is clearly the best wedding I’ve ever seen. you are amazing.
Wow. I wish I was there!! True love is a big deal!!!!!!!!!
Superb work Jonas and Erik
You should probably be banned from wedding photography. This is so damn good, it should be illegal. Incredible shots. So much style, so much fun.
Part of my morning routine is to always check the blogs I love. Everyday when I click on your link I eagerly await some fabulous new post. This morning your pictures made me cry. What a wonderful job you have and what a wonderful person you must be to be able to capture these most precious moments. It most certainly was meant to be! Thank you for sharing :)
Every single photo is just truly amazing.
There are no words.
These photos are amazing, and you know how I know? Because I’m not thinking about the photos, I’m thinking about that amazing couple and how happy they look. In 100 years they are going to remember EXACTLY how they felt that day. Because of you! Awesome stuff.
Well, that looks like quite the party.
this wedding wins! Even though there are 195 photos I could have looked at 195+ more :D
This is the most emotive wedding I’ve ever seen. Absolutely stunning Jonas.
Your best work Jonas. The love and joy is just pouring out of every image. I could just scroll up and down and up and down and up and down. You rock.
wow, truly amazing work!!!
the shot through the grass of the couple is amazing.
da man!
Such a nice bunch of pictures! Så stämningsladdade bilder. Känns som att du fångat känslan så in i pricken rätt. Hatten av!
/Mattias, illustratör
Jonas these are so perfect.
beautifully shot, with more emotion held in the images than I ever thought possible.
I love your playfulness with the evening /dancefloor photography…it looks like you had a lot of fun with it.
Hats off to you
Just amazing!
pure magic x
Silverfisken, you made me cry. Again. But this was different.
Your words, the song and the speech was wonderful.
But this time you told a story unheard of with your pictures. The most beautiful movie I’ve ever seen played in my head when I saw the pics of the couple seeing each other for the first time before the ceremony.
Ok, the song’s mainly in swedish but just as I scrolled down to the pic with the “True love is a big deal” sign, Ras sang the only line in english in the song:
“To my inspiration and my shining star
To my inspiration and my shining star…”.
Epic.
This is, by far, your best weddingstory told ever.
Undoubtably one of my most favorite weddings that you’ve ever done. Amazing work Jonas!
Simply amazing…Thanks for the inspiration.
Dude, this blog post is a big deal! Hands down, the BEST wedding I have seen blogged all year… if not ever. I mean it. Ya bloody aced it! Well done :)
Man, you rocked that wedding! looking at the pictures with the tune of that song is just breathtaking. seriously!
I wish I’d be able to take pictures like these… You make me wanna get so much better!
And I love that sign “true love is a big deal”. I want one like this for my appartment :-)
This is just so freaking unbelievable…. me so jelaous.
The tears. The tears almost made me cry. Amazing.
The black and white kiss! Perfect.
I played Miya’s song as I scrolled through these pictures and I felt completely transported. Your storytelling skills and artistry are so beautiful and unique to who you are Jonas. You really do have a gift.
OH MY GOD!! Jonas these pics are awesome and what an amazing wedding with an amazing story
Blown me away! Fab!
speechless! wow.
and I totally downloaded that song. moving and beautiful.
oh my gosh…
i’ve told you this in private and now i’m telling you openly. you are IT in wedding photography in my mind. this is EXACTLY what wedding photography should be. you are unreal.
Wow.Amazing.
Wow. Amazing.
Not that you need another comment but I love viewing your work. It’s inspiring and helps encourage me to stay the course with this being my startup year.
Thanks
James
Nice pictures and all ofc, but more importantly it looks like it was a hell of a party.
It’s all been said, but your work, the gorgeous couple, the stellar location, the mad-about-plaid style deserves yet another congrats to everyone involved. And THAT’s the Airstream I’ve been coveting.
Okay, I’ve looked at every picture and am compelled to comment, but what to say?? Err, pretty good that Jonas!! ‘Like’ :o)
i’d have you shoot my wedding.
coolest wedding I’ve ever seen with most stylish clients…. and AMAZING photos! jealous. jealous.
howwwwww? seriously. so many “hows.” specifically how do you conjure sunlight AND dramatic, brooding, storm clouds in the same time? and how do you win so much?
I can’t find neither english or swedish words to describe what I feel when I see these photos. It’s perfection, it’s as simple as that!
YOU’RE THE MAN.
creativity x infinity! So amazing!
PLOP!!
Please, any doctor here?
Wow. I’m speechless. I’ve seen a lot of talented shots lately, but none brought a tear to my eye like your’s did.
You have a gift.
Continue to use it.
Congrats.
Epic. Thanks for setting the bar so high, you big jerk. ;-)
start to finish, amazing!
Thanks for sharing, Jonas. These photos easily put a smile on my face — but my favourite is ‘grovers01556’. I just can’t help wondering if it’s been post processed or a ‘SOOC’. I really like the effect. Hmm so I just decided. If one day I ever want to get serious about wedding photography, I will definitely visit here for inspiration…or even better, pay you to be my mentor here in Brisbane.
You made my day.
I have no words. This is breathtakingly beautiful.
I think this might have been the first time I have shed tears while reading a photography blog post. beautiful and full of love. great work Jonas.
The priest is hot!
Amazing pics!!!! congratulations. From Córdoba, Argentina
amazing!
wooow!!! Great post J!!!
Amazing work, Jonas. Nothing else to say.
Thank you so much for sharing this so wonderfully!
Dear Lord, this wedding is absolutely beautiful! Your images captured the beauty and mood perfectly…You truly are my favorite photographer
Ok I know I’m a children’s photographer and shouldn’t cuss. But holy fuck that’s good. Shiiiiiiz. I think I’m actually speechless.
WOW.
I don’t think it gets much better than this!
Awesome work, Jonas!
Beautiful stuff, Jonas – lovely and evocative. This looks like an amazing wedding!
Thanks for having me sir :)
Those are some truly amazing photos!
AMAZING SHOTS!!! AMAZING WEDDING!!!
best wedding photos I’ve ever seen. Perfection.
well well………. i’m sure the other 100+ comments will sum it up, every comment deserving my friend
It was definitely worth the wait. Incredible stuff – probably my favorite wedding that you’ve done so far.
Oh. My. God.
Unreal.
Words fail me.
really, this is damn near perfect. Great work.
i don’t even know what to say but know i have to say something…these are just amazing.
Fantastic!!
One word. Amazing.
great shots – great atmosphere.
wow Jonas. Excellent work. From start to finish… doesn’t get better than that.
day-um.
wow, jonas, wow…
……. loss for words.
The images got progressively blurry as I looked through this post. Then I dried my eyes and they looked as they do. As good as it gets; a transcendentally beautiful day.
i don’t even know what the say. it’s just so breathtakingly beautiful. the 2 that stand out immediately are the one of the bride with her mother aboutn to walk down the aisle and the close up of the groom during the ceremony. I also love how you can feel the mood change as you shift from the ceremony to the reception.
Awesome. What I’d give to be inside your head for a day or two. Really great work. The shoe shot with the clouds in the window of the airstream is insane!
speechless. I am just speechless. the most awesome wedding ever!
dude, your work is just that good, killer shots, cheers from MX.
Such a lovely post and the photos are simply heart touching. Keep posting more blogs on wedding photography.More to go http://bit.ly/1zJJ9UU

Maddening what you capture with your glass, dude. MADDENING.
This is pure beauty….whenever I am lost when I want to take pictures, I always returned to this..here…this particular event that you have captured….thank you for such inspiring pictures….
Wish to be on your level one day…truly speechless..
Son geniales tus fotografías. Saludos desde Colombia.
Wow just wow. I love your work sir.
Wow. Incredible work mate.

Awesome, your work is top notch always. Hard to top. My sincere congratulations!

Great wedding photography in a lovely setting.
Wow!! I want to get married right now!! ❤
Greate pictures!!
I can’t remember whether I ever commented on this post or not. I do remember though this was the first wedding I’d seen of yours JP, it floored me then and still does. Crazy good man.
Beautiful work!
wow. absolutely stunning work.
The best! :)
These are great! Some of the best wedding work I have found. Man your comments get a lot of spam though.
llevo viendo post de tus fotografías de boda así como 2 horas y voy a seguir un ratito más porque no quiero perderme ni una! qué gran trabajo, por dios!!!
that more great photos
chiałbym kiedyś Zrobić Takie Zdjęcia !
What I like about you is the time spent for the article with photos narando almost everything, nothing to do with what the Spanish do.
Demuestra Que ésto no es nada
My gosh. I just love this. Amazing, amazing, amazing!
Amazing location captured beautifully. I’d love to film a wedding at a location like this !
Amazing light. Just like everyone else already said.what a stunning image….the quality of light is outstanding and she’s framed perfectly between the trees. Awesome
These photos are amazing! A real down to earth quality.
Heeelt fantastiskt!!!! Nu gråter jag och känslan i den här berättelsen är oslagbar. Man blir lycklig.
Where was the wedding hosted in Aspen?
Loving ImagesGreat Wedding Photos with great some amazing effects, well done Jonas!
Crazy. You’re crazy! The party pictures are just out of this world.
Colorado seems like an awesome place. The setting, the location and the people all seem so much fun. Best of luck to the lovely couple. Nice shots.
I simply do not have words to express the wonderful images that you have captured. You are very inspiring :D

My favourite set to date!
I’m crying now… I believe you told the story just fine… <3
Stunning. Just inspiring. You’re amazing mate.
By far the best wedding album I’ve ever had the pleasure to look at. There’s just no comparison, and no doubt the fact that the wedding in itself was so original and fun added to the “wow factor”. You’re an amazingly gifted photographer, Jonas. Congratulations, in particular to the many awards you’ve won already during 2012. Keep up the good work.
Warm Regards
from beautiful Mexico City
you are such a fucking amazing photographer… my head is spinning..
Greetings from Uruguay, amazing photos (loved them all!)… I wish I could take pictures like you, beautiful and fresh. Congrats!
Gorgeous Wedding Photos, thank you so for sharing :)
Thync
I keep coming back to this wedding when describing your work to my friends.
It’s brilliant.
This is amazing!
I love the every shot, great work!
:)
Jonas – great work as always. Absolutely captivating! Oh and Surya…those shoes! Those beautiful orange shoes! I am in love. I would love to know where you got them! :)
Good job, fantastic…. thanks!!
Wow, what a fantastic day! These guys are so lucky to have amazing images to look back on.
Good story over again! I am looking forward for your next post:)
loving the light trails on the party shots
Wahouhhhh!!

I love your photos.
I would like to know Which is the necklace of the bride because I loveeeee!!!!
How to contact the bride to have this piece of information?
Thanks thanks thanks!!!
Bravo for your work
Cécile
Hi there,
I absolutely adore your photography and I saw you traveled to many places around the world but I was wondering if you would ever travel to England to do a wedding here? And if so, how much would the basic package be that we’d pay? No date set yet just inquiring about prices so we can start saving. hope to hear from you soon!
Ellie
Awesome photos of a gorgeous couple, Jonas. Especially love the airstream shoes pic.
These are amazing photos. Well done, and thank you for sharing.
tsara be !
Maravillo trabajo. Saludos desde España :)))
Precioso!!! Beautifull!!! your work is a inspiration, as your mind and words…. cheers from Spain
i really like your work. Thanks for posting our movie! Talk to you soon.
Hi.. Do you happen to know where that true love sign came from? I am dying to find one! Thanks:)!
Amazing work…you have captured their day in a way that I feel I was right there joining in the celebration…love their attitude on life and your view in capturing it :)
Excelente reportaje.
this wedding is superb-ness.
when u see what won this years AIPP and then check out this website, you can be forgiven for being conflicted and confused…..great natural style!
Beautiful, inspirational, passionate.
I really loved you work. Great work!!!
Wow, incredible! Loving the T/S action, too… but loving all of it.
Comment #271.
Still #1 in my book my man. You and the wedding ;)
Wow. This wedding is absolutely perfect, and these pictures are breathtaking. Amazing work!
Love the toning of your images! Excellent work!
que belleza de BODA!!!!!!!! de pelicula!!! y que bien captados los momentos!!!!!! son increibles tus fotos!!!! felicitaciones!!!!!
Fantastiska bilder! Jag är mycket imponerad. Det är väldigt kul att gå in på din blog lite nu och då och bli inspirerad av ett riktigt proffs!
Wow. Not only do I want to be best friends with the bride and groom – I want to kiss the photographer – this is simply beautiful and makes me smile and tear up at the same time!
Oh wow. Your work is amazing. Thanks for sharing this with us. That’s truly inspirational.
awsome pictures, this my first time in your blog, and i love it.
best.ever.
Just browsing all your galleries. Have to get back to work but just brilliant and the same kind of the we are looking for…
I got chills looking at this. Love every single detail about this!
p.s. true love IS a big deal and i’m stoked to see that be such a big part of what you share, whether written or photographed, throughout your site…
enjoyed every minute of it…. as i’m sure they will for a lifetime!!!
So very very beautiful. One of the best sets of wedding pictures I have ever seen I think. You are clearly very very talented.
UNDERBART! Igen! Och jag är SÅ glad för den andra chansen på seminariet i Göteborg nästa vecka!! Åker från Skåne lite tidigare än planerat, via Götet och sen hem till Sthlm. Men det passar bra att avsluta semestern med en västkuststrip! :D
holy crap that was good
tears and i don’t even know them. beautiful work!
Most brilliant!
Jonas, A-MA-ZING! The wedding looks fantastic and your work in portraying the happy couple and their loved ones is just…well, I’m lost for words. Hope that it’s ok that we borrowed your photos (you’re credited of course) for our blog.
Best regards

love it!
Damn. What a wedding!
Skithäftigt!! Aldrig sett något liknande, du bryter verkligen mark.
I am inspired to the point of having chills. Bravo, beautiful, amazing.
you have done great job.perfect timing picture perfect
Very cool!!!
Hej Jonas.
Dina bilder inspirerar mig otroligt mycket just av den anledning att det går rakt igenom hjärtat. Det är få fotografer som lyckas få till bilder med samma känsla, närvaro och helhet som du får. Jag fotar mycket själv och liksom du försöker jag skapa mitt egna fotostil.
Tack för dessa fantastiska minuter.
Wow. Some of the best wedding pictures I have ever seen. Vilken känsla du har förmedlat som att vara på plats och uppleva allt själv.
Perhaps the best wedding album I’ve ever seen. They look so relaxed and having fun. Truly a celebration about the couple and their friends, not about the wedding as a process.
If you don’t mind my asking, what lenses did you shoot with? Looks like quite a few were taken with a wide angle, ~24-28mm??
Stunning.
i’ve never seen such wonderful moments captured so beautifully. You’re pictures are unlike anything i’ve ever seen. I have to fight back tears when I look at them because they are so beautiful. Every wedding you shoot is like a fairy tale and every picture is so perfect because they are so real and in the moment. They make me hope I will find true love one day!
Jag har inte besökt din blogg på ett tag nu, men en vän länkade så studsade självklart in här. Jag har aldrig tidigare rörts till tårar av bröllopsbilder. Dina har varit nära, men de här… är fantastiska. Det är en sån känsla, en helhet och även om jag missar de ord som sägs så är jag ändå där, orden behöver inte sägas.
Du har helt enkelt fångat känslan. Underbart gjort. Du är grym och en av mina främsta förebilder.
Ha en toppendag och ta åt dig varenda kommentar här!
Fan va bra foton du tar, blir fast så fort jag ser bilderna!:)
Keep up the good work.
/N
I was just tearing up at my desk and thought where was here 3 years ago. I am enraptured in your photos and thought process, fan for life!
Annette
Very Very Very beautiful!!!!!!!
enhorabuena gran trabajo ….bufff .
Dude. I found you after reading through American Photo’s top 10. This is stunning, truly inspirational imagery that makes me want to pick up my camera and try harder. Unbelievably mindblowing work my friend. Congrats on making the top 10… you definitely deserve every ounce of it.
Hi there! Your pictures are absolutely stunning! This wedding is exceptionally beautiful. Im not getting married any time soon, well at least for the next couple years. Just wanted to know if you ever come to Canada? =)
Lovel pictures!! So beautiful
I keep coming back here because this is the most amazing wedding I have ever seen!
I’m a photographer too and I need to say that is the most incredible wedding photos that I ever seen!
Your work is awesome!!
amazing. you are inspirational.
Beautiful photos… You wouldn’t happen to know who designed her dress do you? It’s gorgeous!
I am blown away! It just gives me inspiration.
Stunning wedding in every way
It truly looks as though this wedding was a joy to be a part of from start to finish. Lovely job!
really amazing work!! i love it!
I don’t cry, because it’s for wussies. I cried after viewing this and couldn’t stop. Your work is pure perfection and beauty entangled in the life of those you capture. So gorgeous!!
Desde España te mando una sonrisa en forma de admiración por este increíble trabajo, completo y magnífico. Como siempre, enhorabuena.
what a fun story, thanks for sharing. totally inspired.
wow. just wow.
These wonderful beautiful photos made me cry of happiness. And I don’t even know the couple! Fantastic!
Fantástico! o seu trabalho é a essencia da palavra “insight” …ato ou resultado de aprender a verdadeira natureza das coisas, enxergar intuitivamente.
espero um dia fotografar assim.
Abraço!
This made me want to get married tomorrow.
By far the most beautiful pictures I have seen in my life
and I have seen my fair share as I do this whole “look at wedding blogs” thing alot.
LOVED every photo.
:)
Breathtaking!
Spellbound. !!!
I love these photos. Sometimes I look at them just to get happy!
Wow! I love the sensitive of the images. I want to move this feeling to mi spanish weddigns.
Just looked back at these. They’re still stupid good.
Wow, this wedding was really amazing! Looks like it was a wonderful day for everyone…
oh.my.god.
I am truly blown away, Jonas. My mom has been shooting weddings for 20 years now. She is very good. But, damn dude. This is top notch! What is your primary rig?
I am blown away. My mom has been shooting weddings for about 20 years. She is very good. But, damn dude. This is top notch. What is your main equipment setup?
Great, love your work Jonas! The Tilt and Shift work is lovely! These weddings are very stylised, they must be a joy to photograph! I shot a wedding in your native Sweden at Kalmar earlier this year, check it out :)
stunning work.. stunning couple.. fab wedding
this is your calling in life. keep telling the stories. thanks for sharing. it’s beautiful.
I love the flowers in the mason jars. Very pretty.
Absolutely amazing, you didn’t miss a moment. Congratulations on such a beautiful result.
omg jonas, you are one clever cookie. how you manage to capture such beauty and joy is still utterly beyond me. i feel like i know these peeps and have been a part of the happiest day of their lives. THAT is a big deal.
I have never seen anything so beautiful in my life as these photographs.
You can feel the joy just by seeing them.
Do you happen to know the typefaces used in the plywood sign?
Riktigt schysta bilder! jättekul att se! man ville verkligen vara där!
I love the summer dresses looks awesome
Your photos are awesome. Wonderful portayal of a truely beautiful couple.
I’m just speechless. Amazing shots! The best wedding ever!
Congratulations to the lovely couple!
Your work is fantastic!
I love Your work! Great colour, nice images and composition. Great work.
Jonas, I just had tears in my eyes looking at your beautiful work. What a fantastic story you have put together about this couple and their special day. Really wonderful work.
Tror inte att jag gråtit av foton tidigare men jag hoppas jag har råd att hyra in dig som bröllopsfotograf den dagen jag gifter mig. Vackert.
Den vackra låten ihop med de fantastiska bilderna fick mig att gråta, på riktigt.
Så äkta, känslorna och stämningen går rakt igenom bilderna.
I need NEEED to win/earn/steel some money cos I want WAAANT you to shoot our wedding!! I actually found it hard to watch some of your shots because they move me too much! Fantastic!!
This is the most beautiful wedding and wedding photographs I´ve ever seen.
OH.MY.GOD! I’m speechles. I really dont know what to say. All I can say is that I’m proud to come from the same “stadsdel” in Gotheburg as you. Haha. Kind of. This ia a work of genius, more than so – this is magic.
The pictures are incredible, love every single on of them. And the short dress of the bride is the best dress I have seen in a long time. Sooo cool!!
Thanks so much for sharing, wonderful!!
Viele Gruesse, Kristina
You know, I read your blog. And I follow you on the twitters. And aside from being extremely talented, in a style that is completely your own, I think you have the best attitude in the biz. It’s no wonder people hire you from half a world away.
ABSOLUTELY LOVE ALL OF THESE. WOW.
are you at all interested in doing 1 on 1 workshops? what i mean is that i’d pay to meet you.
it’s crazy to me that while scrolling through these photos i felt as though i was right there along with them, completely immersed in such profound love, joy and magic of that day. no other wedding photo i’ve seen has EVER brought me to that place, so thank you so so much for sharing these with us! it’s a testament to how extremely talented you are.
Unbelievable! That was amazing!!!
Best. Wedding. Ever. No comparison. Thank you Jonas for sharing it with such passion and conviction and awesomeness x
This wedding makes me a little breathless, as if i was there. If I could ‘have’ someone elses wedding, this would be the one. Beautiful wedding and beautifully captured.
the most beautiful wedding work i have seen you do. and yes, i can see why this might have been your favorite wedding ever. i am blown away
Awesome pics. This wedding looks like it would have been a blast. Perks of the job hey!
… nice work. Excellent!
this wedding IS MAGICAL. thank you so much for sharing. LOVE IT.
absolutely gorgeous! what an amazing wedding how cool!
effin’ incredible. you really lapped this one up, and rightly so , what a amzingly stylish and love-filled event.
you are my new hero :)
Seriously crazy amazing! I get so much inspiration from your images! This is such a beautiful wedding and you have captured it so well.
I probably looked at this post 20 times before I could find words for it. It is flat out beautiful in every way Jonas. I am inspired both by your photos and their obvious love for each other. A perfect match for sure.
you are amazing, beyond words… this wedding and the photographs are so magical. and what’s almost as magical: the time it took me to scroll through these pictures was the exact length of the song. it stopped playing as soon as i got to the last picture :)
Helt makalösa! Vilket underbart bröllop det verkar varit, och du har överträffat dig själv!
My heart skips a beat every time I see these.
also – listening to it while looking at your photos – GORGEOUS-VILLE.
that song. total cries-ville.
Words cannot do this wedding justice…
Holy moly you are taking wedding to a whole new level…you’ve clearly been busy! It takes a lot these days for me to look twice at a wedding, and this one definitely caught me on the fly…amazing, and so so cool! i bet they loved these images.
Well then… the 2 of you make up one super human camera wielding person!! :)
Gifter mig på fredag. Önskar jag hade råd att leja dig! Hur bra bilder som helst!
Så vackert, så vackert! Du har verkligen fångat alla känslorna.
Even though I had a great photographer for our wedding, your shots make me kick myself every time I see them for not knowing of your skills when I was choosing for my own special day….you truely are inspired and inspiring.
Jonas, you absolutely rocked this wedding! Simply gorgeous! Beth did a fabulous job as coordinator. It was wonderful meeting you that day.
You’re ridiculous. Those pictures… That wedding… Beautiful doesn’t seem to cover it, nor amazing. So I guess I’m at a loss for words. But, man, do I feel the love.
Beautiful! Looks like you captured the fun and excitement of the day like nobody elese could!
Tror jag säljer allt och drar med “Amerikat-båten” efter att sett dessa bilder!!! Du kan verkligen fånga ögonblick, känslor, färger och mycket mera som inte går att beskriva i ord.
Beauty. Perfection.
this is so beautiful, it drives me to tears.
helt otroligt.
Really super gorgeous and moving.
Om jag någonsin fotade bröllop som höll din standard skulle jag vara världens lyckligaste! Men, tills dess är jag glad att du låter oss ta del av det underbara :) Tack!
Det är med stort nöje jag följer din blogg! Du är vanvettsduktig! Men i de här bröllopsbilderna har du lyckats bräcka dig själv! De är helt OUTSTANDING! Du har fångat stämningen så himla bra, jag fick tårar i ögonen själv…
WOW, this wedding is EPIC! I LOVE it.
beautiful work, Jonas.
Underbart fint. Mållös, fullkomligt mållös!
Jonas… wow!
Wow JP! No kidding… This is easily the most comprehensive wedding on your blog, perfectly captured, composed, exposed, executed and processed! How many images is the final delivery? Thanks for sharing your awesome vision with the industry :-)
your awesome :)
Wow Jonas… just… wow. Got a little teary looking at these! Love the one with the shoes on the back of the Airstream – those clouds look like they’re rollin right out of the window!
Unbelievable! Amazing work sir.
Oh, I didn’t do it all, Tenielle. I had a brilliant second shooter, Erik Clausen. He deserves half the credit.
Impossible. Impossible for one person to do it all… and do it so well?! Apparently not… this is blissfully, splendidly, wonderful in every possible way.
Impossible….impossible for one person to do it all….and do it so well?! But apparently not…. this is blissfully, splendidly wonderful in every possible way.

so lovely. and just quietly you’re a rockstar with the flash.
Hi, Jonas. I m a long time reader, first time poster, but today I had to comment. The way you shoot weddings makes me wish I was there. Makes me wish I could have been part of all that joy. Your pictures sparkle with happiness and truth, and there is no higher prise I can think of. Thanks for sharing that with us.
Found your website through Elisa’s tag on her facebook page and had to check out this wedding. Wowee, such a great concept and I LOVE THE SONG!
Wow! So authentic. Lovely song.
this is too good.
Great work!
This is just amazing. Completely amazing.
Looking at the pictures with your choice to let us listen to the song sung for the first dance, made tears in my eyes. You have beautiful eyes for the world my friend.
oh man oh man oh man! i know you already had a big feature on this fabulous wedding, but if there was a sweet music list to share or the two love birds want to gush about any of the music details, i would LOVE to have this on hi-fi weddings :)
every single image is magical!
i wish i could get married again so you can photograph my wedding. thanks for sharing this.
who sings that song? it is amazing.
The best so far Jonas, amazing! Had to tell my blogreaders: http://mettesfoto.blogg.se/2010/august/min-topplista-1-jonas-peterson.html
I love everything about this wedding!! We can feel the love through your images which are absolutely amazing to look at! Good job!!
i haven’t been so emotionally touched by photos in my life. you are incredible! so many techniques i’m asking ‘how did he do that?!’ but then i just realised, you know how to get into relationships and people. stunning. absolutely stunning.
Awesome awesome set!! Love the setting, and the couple, and the emotion in your photos
hi jonas, it’s me, surya’s mom. thank you for saving the magic and beauty of the day. your work brings it all back. the photo of suri waiting for nick to see her for the first time captures her from birth to that moment– breath held, hopes and dreams realized. and somehow your presence was also a part of it all. you weren’t just the photographer– you were a participant in the celebration. they loved you from the moment they found you. yup, meant to be.
Just amazing. I’m really speechless.
wow that is truly an amazing wedding, makes me want to get married all over again
****!!!!!
I look at this work and I just want to swear at you. Screw you man. Screw you for being so good! ;-)
Extraordinary work!!
You have represented my beautiful state of Colorado well, Jonas. Excellent job!
Really, how hard can your job be?! You get the best looking couples having the most amazing weddings to photograph…:p
I can’t wait to hire you for my wedding vow renewal in America. You’d be worth every penny.
I actually cried, looking at these photos.
Between your amazing, evocative photos and those incredible opening words, I am tearing up. You are seriously something else.
Simply stunning in every way!
We wander for distraction, we travel for fulfilment.
lovely…
True Love is a Big Deal – Love it! ….Amazing work Jonas – as always.
best ive seen. impeccable. incredible.
holy shit balls.
I looked at every image, read your words, cried (a little), and then felt glad that you are setting the bar so high for the rest of us to work to, I cant wait to see what comes next, how or if you can top this (insane thought!).
Way more than a touch of awesome here! i LOVE your work!
that is clearly the best wedding I’ve ever seen. you are amazing.
Wow. I wish I was there!! True love is a big deal!!!!!!!!!
Superb work Jonas and Erik
You should probably be banned from wedding photography. This is so damn good, it should be illegal. Incredible shots. So much style, so much fun.
Part of my morning routine is to always check the blogs I love. Everyday when I click on your link I eagerly await some fabulous new post. This morning your pictures made me cry. What a wonderful job you have and what a wonderful person you must be to be able to capture these most precious moments. It most certainly was meant to be! Thank you for sharing :)
Every single photo is just truly amazing.
There are no words.
These photos are amazing, and you know how I know? Because I’m not thinking about the photos, I’m thinking about that amazing couple and how happy they look. In 100 years they are going to remember EXACTLY how they felt that day. Because of you! Awesome stuff.
Well, that looks like quite the party.
this wedding wins! Even though there are 195 photos I could have looked at 195+ more :D
This is the most emotive wedding I’ve ever seen. Absolutely stunning Jonas.
Your best work Jonas. The love and joy is just pouring out of every image. I could just scroll up and down and up and down and up and down. You rock.
wow, truly amazing work!!!
the shot through the grass of the couple is amazing.
da man!
Such a nice bunch of pictures! Så stämningsladdade bilder. Känns som att du fångat känslan så in i pricken rätt. Hatten av!
/Mattias, illustratör
Jonas these are so perfect.
beautifully shot, with more emotion held in the images than I ever thought possible.
I love your playfulness with the evening /dancefloor photography…it looks like you had a lot of fun with it.
Hats off to you
Just amazing!
pure magic x
Silverfisken, you made me cry. Again. But this was different.
Your words, the song and the speech was wonderful.
But this time you told a story unheard of with your pictures. The most beautiful movie I’ve ever seen played in my head when I saw the pics of the couple seeing each other for the first time before the ceremony.
Just in time for the ceremony pictures my Spotify played the song Skin (Shine) by Ras Cricket.
http://listen.grooveshark.com/s/Skin/2opV3P
Ok, the song’s mainly in swedish but just as I scrolled down to the pic with the “True love is a big deal” sign, Ras sang the only line in english in the song:
“To my inspiration and my shining star
To my inspiration and my shining star…”.
Epic.
This is, by far, your best weddingstory told ever.
Undoubtably one of my most favorite weddings that you’ve ever done. Amazing work Jonas!
Simply amazing…Thanks for the inspiration.
Dude, this blog post is a big deal! Hands down, the BEST wedding I have seen blogged all year… if not ever. I mean it. Ya bloody aced it! Well done :)
Man, you rocked that wedding! looking at the pictures with the tune of that song is just breathtaking. seriously!
I wish I’d be able to take pictures like these… You make me wanna get so much better!
And I love that sign “true love is a big deal”. I want one like this for my appartment :-)
This is just so freaking unbelievable…. me so jelaous.
The tears. The tears almost made me cry. Amazing.
The black and white kiss! Perfect.
I played Miya’s song as I scrolled through these pictures and I felt completely transported. Your storytelling skills and artistry are so beautiful and unique to who you are Jonas. You really do have a gift.
OH MY GOD!! Jonas these pics are awesome and what an amazing wedding with an amazing story
Blown me away! Fab!
speechless! wow.
and I totally downloaded that song. moving and beautiful.
oh my gosh…
i’ve told you this in private and now i’m telling you openly. you are IT in wedding photography in my mind. this is EXACTLY what wedding photography should be. you are unreal.
Wow.Amazing.
Wow. Amazing.
Not that you need another comment but I love viewing your work. It’s inspiring and helps encourage me to stay the course with this being my startup year.
Thanks
James
Nice pictures and all ofc, but more importantly it looks like it was a hell of a party.
It’s all been said, but your work, the gorgeous couple, the stellar location, the mad-about-plaid style deserves yet another congrats to everyone involved. And THAT’s the Airstream I’ve been coveting.
Okay, I’ve looked at every picture and am compelled to comment, but what to say?? Err, pretty good that Jonas!! ‘Like’ :o)
i’d have you shoot my wedding.
coolest wedding I’ve ever seen with most stylish clients…. and AMAZING photos! jealous. jealous.
howwwwww? seriously. so many “hows.” specifically how do you conjure sunlight AND dramatic, brooding, storm clouds in the same time? and how do you win so much?
I can’t find neither english or swedish words to describe what I feel when I see these photos. It’s perfection, it’s as simple as that!
YOU’RE THE MAN.
creativity x infinity! So amazing!
PLOP!!
Please, any doctor here?
Wow. I’m speechless. I’ve seen a lot of talented shots lately, but none brought a tear to my eye like your’s did.
You have a gift.
Continue to use it.
Congrats.
Epic. Thanks for setting the bar so high, you big jerk. ;-)
start to finish, amazing!
Thanks for sharing, Jonas. These photos easily put a smile on my face — but my favourite is ‘grovers01556’. I just can’t help wondering if it’s been post processed or a ‘SOOC’. I really like the effect. Hmm so I just decided. If one day I ever want to get serious about wedding photography, I will definitely visit here for inspiration…or even better, pay you to be my mentor here in Brisbane.
You made my day.

The images got progressively blurry as I looked through this post. Then I dried my eyes and they looked as they do. As good as it gets; a transcendentally beautiful day.
i don’t even know what the say. it’s just so breathtakingly beautiful. the 2 that stand out immediately are the one of the bride with her mother aboutn to walk down the aisle and the close up of the groom during the ceremony. I also love how you can feel the mood change as you shift from the ceremony to the reception.
Awesome. What I’d give to be inside your head for a day or two. Really great work. The shoe shot with the clouds in the window of the airstream is insane!
speechless. I am just speechless. the most awesome wedding ever!
dude, your work is just that good, killer shots, cheers from MX.
