Actors to Executives: Headshots in Stockholm

I started out photographing actors. Those early sessions taught me something important — a headshot isn’t just a photo. It’s about capturing confidence and personality, without making the process complicated. Simple, straightforward, and authentic always works best.

Actors bring a natural energy to the camera. To get a strong headshot, I learned to guide without over-directing, and to avoid making the photo look over-produced. That same approach works perfectly with executives and corporate teams here in Stockholm. Business portraits might have a different purpose than actor headshots, but the process is the same. Keep it comfortable, keep it professional — and let the real person show through.
Stockholm has a creative side and a business side — with an innovative spirit that runs through both. Professionals here want photos that look sharp but not stiff. They want to come across as approachable, not posed. And they want to reflect the forward-thinking culture this city is known for. That’s what I aim for every time I pick up the camera — whether I’m photographing an actor, a CEO, or a whole team.
For me, the goal is simple: help people look like themselves at their best. If you’re in Stockholm and thinking about refreshing your headshot, I’d be glad to connect.
