I was so lucky to photograph this adorable couple some days ago - we had plenty of sun, rain and laughs, can't wait to share more pictures!

Last year I had an opportunity to photograph this lovely family at Vierwaldstättersee, one of the most beautiful lakes of Switzerland. The mom of this wonderful family reached out to me asking about a family portrait session in Meggen, where she spent her childhood with her parents. The Summer (as far as I remember :) was unstable last year, and we had to postpone our photo session several times, but eventually we were lucky with weather. We had a beach just for us. It was a celebration of summer, family gathering and making of the best memories. The pictures were taken on medium format film, and I must confess, I love them so much, the soft magic of film makes every single shot very intimate and authentic, presenting it as an effortless piece of art.
... For her the ocean was more than a dream, it was a place she needed to visit to find herself. And when she returned to the city, you could see the sun in her eyes, the wind in her hair, and taste the infinite salt on her lips. (Jose Chaves)
While I am waiting for the films to be developed, I will show you some digital images ...

I'm waiting for you, jump in.
It’s colder when you’re out there.
Still waiting on the first step. T

My dear Swedish friends moved recently to New York, I miss them, and these pictures taken one Summer day are very special to me. Our portrait session started at their beautiful flat in Enge, and afterwards we walked to the beautiful park of the Rietberg Museum. I hope you will enjoy this love story in Zurich as much as I did :)

It's such a wonderful experience to document the growth of the family of my former wedding couples. I'm always so honoured when I get asked to photograph their families a year (or two or three etc :) after the wedding. Last Spring I had a wonderful pleasure of photographing the new addition to the family of Hilary and Paul, baby Clayton, I loved spending time with them capturing their happiness and smiles, discovering their immense obsession with the tiny human being, their new family member ...

If you are looking for a place to get married with spectacular scenery, it is difficult to imagine a better country than Switzerland! And if you are looking a place with particular incredible views of the Swiss Alps, go to Engadin. Spending every winter vacation (and sometimes spring/summer/autumn) in Celerina, a picturesque village close to St. Moritz, I was always dreaming to photograph a wedding at its landmark San Gian Church. So you can imagine how happy I was to be able to photograph the wedding of Bianca and Tobias there. The wedding ceremony took place at San Gian, and the celebration was at the stunning "Kronenhof" hotel in Pontresina.

"Those who don't believe in magic will never find it" said Roald Dahl, one of my favourite children's writers. I love family photo sessions, and if you are looking for a family photographer, don’t hesitate to send me an email. Summer is such a wonderful time to get beautiful family portraits!
