Photographer Irene Urskog Smiling

Irene Urskog

​If you want your elopement pictures to be like taken straight out of a magical movie – filled with passion, love, stunning views, adventure and all of the ingredients that will make you relive your special day again and again, every time you look at the pictures, we are the right fit. I am a strong believer that life is lived only once, and should be lived fully and truly.  I’m a photographer and freelance journalist, used to document the raw and true and telling unique stories, adventurer and explorer, whose soul sings at the most beautiful places and when accomplishing the most stunning pictures. Being a dreamer, visionaire, creator... About me as a person and as a photographer: My grandfather was a talented painter, I remember having his giant oilpaintings hanging at the walls in our livingroom and bedroom, my father was a musician, he played the guitar by ear, signing Beatles and ABBA... but they had main and "real" jobs - my dad as a car mechanic and my grandfather working at an airport, because they had strong beliefs that no one can work with art and live of it, and maybe in their lifetime it was a truth. And I was raised with this belief, resulting in me trying to fit into what was expected of me, mostly by society - having a regular job as a store manager, and later as an administrator. But I was not feeling good at these jobs, never happy, because that wasn't the authentic me, and it drained me of all my joy and life energy. I had a strong inner calling for something else, always dreaming of being an entrepreneur. The longing for creative expression runs in my blood, but I didn't know in what way until the cellphones got cameras, then I noticed, that the camera could capture the fleeting moments of beauty that would otherwise pass unnoticed, and this brought me immense soulful joy - and caught my interest for photography. In 2011, when I was 18 years old, I got my first digital camera as a birthday present. And this was a gamechanger for me, creating a dream of being a photographer, I found my outlet for my inner thirst for creative expression. Since then I've been photographing in various forms - nature, family, pets who are like family members to me, maternity, couples and photojournalism, and capturing my adventures as I traveled the world. This is many years now since that happened, and many years since both my grandfather and father passed far too young, making me realize the importance of pictures as memories, and their ability to keep cherished moments and memories of loved people and animals, immortal. I combined this passion for capturing beauty and memories and my love for telling stories, traveling and meeting unique people daring to go their own way - and during raging pandemic 2020 I took the leap of faith and quit my daytime job, and made photography my main and only job. Since then I've been working as a freelancing photojournalist, my stories and photographs of unique people published in many big magazines. And now, I am ready to photograph and tell your unique lovestory, and help you plan - and, in form of photography, artisticly storytell your most memorable and unique lovestory on your bucketlist location - on your elopementday. Because life is precious and lived only once, so let's intentionally create unique precious experiences and cherished memories with people we love the most and live life to the fullest - How do you want your unique lovestory to look like and be told on your most important day? and what pictures do you want to look back on and remember when you are old and gray?

The photographer with the eye for detail, usually always having silly jokes or interesting mythological tales at hand, the practical handy down to earth type who makes sure the schedules are kept, the places are reached and the visions actually made come alive and true.

As a strong believer that food is the true way of staying happy over time, he always brings snacks, fruits and bars to keep everyone happy – read - not hungry.

How we work & our style

"Photojournalistic candids and artfully posed with promts for a natural feel"

To make you feel comfortable it is important for us to get to know  each other through our journey together while planning your elopement and on the big day, so that you feel like we are friends being there with you, and to help you make your elopement unique and adapted after your wishes and needs, making it possible for you to be yourselves the way you are.

 

Having worked as a freelance journalist we are used in capturing candid moments and telling stories through pictures and document details, which is very important because those photographs will be your memories for the rest of your lives. We offer a blend of photojournalistic style and posed with promts so it will feel natural, so that we can create the most artful double exposures, gifs and light effects for pictures that truly stand out. Our versatile editing adapts to the moment, whether it's light and bright, darker, with strong colors, or classic black and white — adapted for what best conveys the emotions of the moment and the beauty of the places being photographed.
