Louise Bjorling, Author at London photographer

AH YOU'VE FOUND YOUR WAY HERE, WELCOME :)
I’m Louise a London wedding photographer, equally based in London and Stockholm Sweden, available to photograph weddings anywhere in the UK and Europe.

And the people in front of my camera of course. Since graduating as a photographer from University of Westminster, London in 2009, I’ve had the joy of meeting all kinds of interesting people and visiting all sorts of amazing venues to capture people’s special day. And I can’t wait to hear the plans you have for yours. DROP ME A LINE HERE

A Valentine wedding with London City tour and boots theme

A Valentines wedding with a guided tour around City of London…

Finally, finally. I’ve really been looking forward to post the story from this lovely London winter wedding. Patrick and Verena got married on the Valentine weekend last year, but I haven’t had the chance to fully blog it. Straight after shooting this wedding, I heard from the Your London wedding Magazine that they would love to feature it for their Christmas issue at the end of 2014 (!) A real honor of course, so of courtesy to the magazine I refrained from blogging it.

And now it has recently been featured, and it’s Valentine’s again! So I thought a little post from this beautiful, sunny Valentines wedding, would be the perfect way of wishing you all a Happy Valentine’s.

Verena and Patrick got married at Wandsworth Town hall, which was followed by a little surprise treat for all their international guests… A double decker bus tour around London. An actual tour, completed with tour guide, stops and a London quiz!

But first I met with them at their house. They had decided to go for a less traditional start of the day – with getting ready together in the morning, and entering their ceremony hand in hand.

I couldn’t believe my luck when I found a quirky, abandoned mirror in their backyard – what a perfect backdrop for the detail shots…

Wow, I just realised something quite funny about this image ↓ When scrolling down slowly, it actually look as if the London Eye in the background is moving. 😉

Once the couple and their guests had challenged the February cold enough for one day, we headed for their reception at the beautiful Victorian The Rose Pub on Southbank. Verena and Patrick had gone for the cutest theme for their day – a homemade theme around boots, since that had a connection to their married surname!

Have a lovely Valentines weekend folks!

A fairy tale wedding from Kent

I think it is high time that I blog this wedding from last summer and I can’t think of a more suitable day than today. It just snowed the other day – did you guys see that? Only for a few minutes – but enough to get me inspired to blog this wedding from the hottest day of the year in 2014… as a reminder to us all that we are heading towards lighter, brighter times and have something to look forward to 😉 .

This Sunny wedding from 6 months back in Kent, was an amazing day – a day that almost felt as if it had fallen out of a book of fairy tales. The imaginative – and almost a bit Charlie-and-the-chocolate-factory – “wonky” architecture of Hop Farm in Kent, stood as a backdrop to a day filled with fun… A day celebrated in style, surrounded by… are you ready for it… the Back to the future car Delorean, an owl flying in with the rings, large jumping pillows, a tree- swing dressed in flowers, and a reception in an interior of beautiful wooden beam, decked out with a theme of Harry Potter and fairytale…

Me and my assistant Michelle started at the bride’s house, to capture the fun of the bridesmaids getting ready. And we didn’t leave til everybody where rocking the dance floor… and the super hot day had turned into a thunderstorm evening.

Do you like the quirky focus with the blurred sides in this dress image? ↑ I know it almost looks “photoshopped” but it’s not! It’s created from my “tilt shift” lens, which is a lens that can be directed so that the focus runs through the image at a certain angle… pretty cool hey?

Thank you to Cecelina photography for capturing the groom preparations in the morning!

Bluewater wedding fair and bridal fashion show photography

In about a week’s time it is time yet again for the big wedding fair at Glow in Bluewater.

Which means that I have had a week of rushing around like crazy… I’ve ordered “stuff” from all around UK – would you believe how many things you need for a stand at a wedding fair – and am all excited about what will actually come with the mail next week!

I already got the flyers with our special fair offer – and I am pleased. I also got my package with pompoms, to which my American house mate looked at me slightly perplexed… “Eh, did you say pompoms…?”

Hi- hi, No I’m not gonna stand up on a table and jump up and down chanting “Give me a W …” … “Oh yeah, lets all get married….”

The pompoms are cute, decorative ones to deck out our stand with, not cheerleader pompoms lol. But I might go all American cheerleader and just jump up and down with them anyway, if I feel a bit extra frisky next weekend.

Anyways, in the meanwhile, while I’m practicing my cheer-leading skills for next weekend, the fab editor Veronica of Zank You Magazine, has just published a feature with my photography from the last fair. (For the last three Bluewater fairs I’ve had a wicked time shooting the bridal fashion show and the event mingle images, providing the organisers with professional photography for their marketing.)

This Bluewater fair however, you won’t find me rushing around the catwalk with my camera – since I’ll be at my stand – but I thought it would be fitting to post some shots, to give you an idea of what the fair is like – and I love shooting the bridal fashion show at Bluewater, always so much to capture, so I’m glad I get a reason to post it. And if you want discount on your fair entry tickets just scroll to the bottom and click the link for the Zank You feature.

See you at stand M6, I’ll be underneath my pile of pompoms! shots by Louise Bjorling photography for the promotional campaign:

Brands on the catwalk from the autumn 2014 fair above: Helena Fortley, Great Expectations Bridal, Reiss, Marianne Jessica, Triumph, Oriental Pearl, Bromley Brides, Jon Kruger, Moss Bros, Hayley Elisabeth, Confetti & Lace, and Couture Pour Home.
