Capturing the love and laughter that makes your family special

Welcome, I'm Gunilla, an award-winning Swedish family photographer based in Singapore since 2006. With over 15 years of experience, I believe family photos should feel like capturing a day spent together, full of love and laughter—more like a playdate than a traditional family photoshoot.

Life moves fast, and as parents, we often find ourselves behind the camera or caught up in the daily rush. Before we know it, our little ones are all grown up, and those small, precious moments can fade. My passion is helping you hold onto those fleeting memories—the laughter, the cuddles, the joy that makes your family uniquely yours.

During our session, I’ll guide you with gentle prompts to keep things fun and relaxed. No stiff poses, just natural moments that reflect your family’s true connection.

As a mother of three, I know how quickly these times pass. I regret not having more photos of my own kids when they were young, and I don’t want you to have the same feeling. Together, we’ll create beautiful, timeless images that you and your family will treasure for years to come.

Quick tip: Bring a snack to your family photo session.

Family photoshoots always is on the children's terms (but for Gods sake don't tell them that ☺️) To make sure the little ones have enough energy to play and laugh, I suggest packing a yummy snack like fruit or a sweet treat to munch on during breaks or even on the car ride to and from your family photo shoot. Trust me, full bellies equals happy kids! Let's make sure your family photography session is filled with silly grins, belly laughs, and lots of love.
