I TRULY BELIEVE THAT A LOT OF BEAUTY LIES IN THE IMPERFECT, THE UNEXPECTED AND WHERE MOST EVEN FORGET TO LOOK.

Stockholm based documentary wedding photographer.

I got my first camera 19 years ago. Nineteen years is a long time to stay in love with anything — but here we are.

I spent a year and a half studying photography in Los Angeles, learning both film and digital. I still miss the darkroom. Wedding photography didn't click until I had my own wedding in 2019. Standing on the other side of the camera changed something. That's when I knew.

These days I'm mostly obsessed with photographing my daughter — the small, unplanned moments of the life I get to share with her and her dad. I'm still chasing the same things I always have: good light, odd angles, the stuff most people walk straight past.

I truly believe that a lot of beauty lies in the imperfect, the unexpected and where most even forget to look.

The photographer

DESTINATION WEDDINGS

From 2028 I'll be taking on weddings in southern Europe — Italy, Greece, Spain, France and Portugal. If your wedding happens to be somewhere warm, get in touch.

The way I work.

I won't stage your wedding day. But I will give you a little direction when you need it - a place to stand, something to do with your hands - because sometimes all it takes is a little guidance before the real moments take over.

The rest of the day, I observe. I wait for what's actually happening - the in-between, the unplanned, the four seconds nobody choreographed - and I photograph that.

Some of it will be beautiful in the traditional sense. A lot of it won't be, I’ll photograph it anyway. Because the version of your wedding worth keeping isn't the one that looked good on paper. It's the one that actually happened.

The Experience

I am on a constant lookout for pretty light and big emotions, but if I had to pick I would choose the latter. Because more than aiming for picture perfection, I am aiming for taking pictures that are a perfect representation of you.

I love to watch your day unfold organically and be there right next to you to capture it. I believe the good stuff lives right in the reality of each moment.

Your wedding day isn't a performance. It's love, hugs, laughter, your people in one room. I'm just here to make sure you remember exactly how it felt.

    Kim oh my goodness, you've made me cry. These pictures are INCREDIBLE. They're everything we wanted. You are pure magic. We don't have the words to explain how we feel. Once we have got our heads and emotions around them we will send you a proper message but just wanted to say thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

  • OLIVIA & ADAM

    Åhhh tack tack tack!! Så himla fina de blev!!! Vi är så otroligt glada för att vi valde dig till vår bröllopsfotograf, och är så imponerade och tacksamma över hur du har fångat vår dag. Ingen av oss kunde tänka sig att en fotograf skulle vara så engagerad och mån om att inte bara bilderna, utan hela upplevelsen för oss, skulle bli på bästa möjliga sätt. All kommunikation har varit supersmidig, och till och med min oro för regnet dämpades av ett av dina mejl dagarna innan. UTÖVER detta har alla gäster vi pratat med efteråt berömt hur smidig, trevlig och gullig ”fotografen” var. Vi har nog aldrig tidigare varit så avslappnade framför kameran. Stort, stort tack Kim - vi är så glada och tacksamma för det arbete du har lagt ned på oss! Helt otroligt!

  • ROSS & RACHEL

    Kim!!! Thank you so much for the gorgeous pictures. They are incredible! We have been taking time to look through them all and it is like reliving the day all over again. They capture all the emotion and happiness so perfectly. We are so happy that you could be our photographer because we knew that they would turn out great!

  • MATT & SANNA

    Neither of us are used to being in front of a camera, but Kim was so good at putting us at ease with gentle direction, and capturing some really natural moments rather than stiff portraits. She was the perfect ‘third wheel’.

  • OLLE & AMANDA

    Kim gjorde ett fantastiskt jobb med våran bröllopsfotografering. Hon var professionell och ledde oss genom processen med härlig energi, trots att plåtningen skedde mitt i city fick Kim oss att känna oss avslappnade och ha kul! Vi är så nöjda med bilderna som levererades snabbt och smidigt. Vi rekommenderar henne varmt. 10 av 10!

  • JENN & MARTIN

    We've finally had some time to digest the pictures and they are so great! It is everything we were hoping for and we are obsessed! Thank you so much for making our dream come true and helping us during the day, could definitely not have been able to do it without you :)

    Alla borde ha Kim Marklund som en del av sin bröllopsdag

THE PROCESS

01.
Inquiry.

You tell me a bit about your day - when, where, how many people, and what matters most to you. The more specific, the better.

02.
First call.

We get on a call. You ask your questions, I ask mine. This is where we figure out if we're a good fit - and I need to feel as excited about your day as you do. You deserve that.

03.
Booking.

If we click, I'll send over a contract and a booking invoice covering 30% of the total. The date is yours. We'll meet again closer to the wedding to go through the details - but I'm always reachable before that.

04.
The wedding.

Your day is here, and I'm probably almost as excited as you are. Some parts of the day we'll be close together. Others, you'll barely notice me. That's the plan. Within three to seven days you'll get a sneak peek. Your full gallery arrives within 8–10 weeks.

Photographing your wedding is a
privilege I don’t take lightly.
