WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO DO?
ARE WE THE RIGHT WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER FOR YOU?
Just like other photographers, we have a style and vision for our photography. Our photography philosophy is simple: emotional images that never age and that provide an unforgettable memory of your most important day.
Below we have collected the most important points that describe our style and what you can always expect from us as your wedding photographer in Uppsala and worldwide.
Artistic & Creative
A more artistic approach to editing and composition is used. We sometimes use unusual angles, lighting, unique locations or other techniques to create unique and artistic images. Please read more about our vision and style below or click on the link.
Lifestyle Photography vs. Posed:
A major focus in our wedding photography style is on capturing the couple in relaxed and everyday situations to create a sense of authenticity and closeness.
However, we equally love creating artistically arranged portraits. In these, we photograph the couple and groom in directed settings, often using beautiful lighting and aesthetic compositions.
Natural Light Photography & Extra Light Sources
"We mainly use natural sunlight. By placing the objects in the right way, we create soft and romantic images with natural lighting."
In addition, we always bring a few extra light sources to create a little more character and feel in the images."
Minimalist Photography:
We focus on simplicity and clean lines, and often use negative space to create drama and give a modern and elegant feel.
Our passion for wedding photography
Our passion for wedding photography goes beyond just documenting moments. It's about creating a timeless and individual experience for each couple.
Our love for photography grew from a deep fascination with capturing the beauty of moments and their power to tell a story. It's not just about the art of capturing the beauty and authenticity of each moment, but also about being a part of such an intimate and loving moment in people's lives.
Every wedding is a unique symphony of emotions and moments, and behind the camera is a life story that merges with every image. We are there for you as a faithful wedding photographer in Uppsala and all of Sweden.
Editing
We don't use the same filter for all images, but edit each image individually. In general, we tend to soften the tones of the strongest colors in the images. For example, we give the green color a softer look to create a shade similar to eucalyptus green.
Through this method, both the colors and images become timeless and stay trendy for years to come.
Landscape & Portrait background
Our background and experience began in landscape and portrait photography. Today we use that knowledge and integrate it into wedding photography. If you want to know more about this, we describe it in more detail further down.
OUR PHOTO PHILOSOPHY & STYLE
YOUR VISION & STYLE
We take the time to listen and understand the couple's wishes to create images that reflect your personality.
Why Chaiko & Markstedt as your wedding photographer
You always get 2 photographers at your wedding.
We work in pairs, which according to us and most wedding photographers is a must during wedding photography. Why would you ask? - the answer is simple, when you are alone you deprioritize important moments because you simply don't have time for them. It is physically impossible to be in two different places at the same time.
Some wedding photographers use an assistant to help with posing, coordination, shooting from different angles, lighting, etc. We use each other's help when we need it, and it works really well.
We are wedding photographers with main principles in our work that are a high level of service, responsibility, punctuality, sociability and creativity.
Therefore, it is of course very important to trust a professional photographer so as not to miss the most beautiful moments of the wedding day.
BACKGROUND & HISTORY
OUR PHOTOGRAPHER'S JOURNEY
Our journey as wedding photographers in Uppsala and around the world began many years ago, before we even knew each other. What we knew for sure was that photography was the biggest passion in our lives, and it developed continuously over the years. To strengthen the technical part of our photography, we went to photography school and participated in several courses and workshops with photographers who inspired us.
One of us had a passion for landscape photography and the other for portrait photography - pretty classic scenario, so to speak.
But what really took photography to a whole new level was when we met. A few months after we met, our friends asked us to photograph their wedding. That's when we found our love and greatest passion: capturing moments and giving our couples memories that will last a lifetime.
Six years later, our experience spans a number of beautiful weddings, where we have had the honor of witnessing different cultures, traditions and love stories. Each wedding has been a journey of its own, and each couple has left an imprint on our hearts and our work.
What really makes wedding photography special to us is the opportunity to create memories for people that will last for generations. Capturing the nervous excitement before the ceremony, the tender emotion of the first dance steps, and the jubilant joy when the couple exchanges glances - it's like locking the magic of love in each image.
We photograph precious moments and details full of love, light & warmth in a genuine love story. Our focus is on authentic emotions in a documentary style.
We are a wedding photographer in Uppsala and all of Sweden with main principles in our work that are a high level of service, responsibility, punctuality, quality, elegance and creativity.
