ABOUT your
photographer

I was told I was too much,
too loud,
too sensitive.
I believed it…sometimes I still do.
But the camera taught me to see without judgment,
and one day I finally saw what I’d been missing all along.

Now, I cater to the dreamers, the loud ones.
The ones who always saw themselves as outsiders.
Just like I did…

VIEW MY WORK

I'm Sissela.

I'm a portrait photographer working in Älmhult, Sweden, the capital region of Denmark, and all over Europe.
I create portraits for people who want to be seen…truly seen…beyond the carefully curated versions we show the world.

But what I really do is create space.

I work in truth.
I sit in the dark with people until the light comes.
I stay when the mask slips, when the breath catches, when the old stories get loud. And they can get so very loud…

I don't create portraits to make people look beautiful; they already are.

I create them so they remember whatever it is that needs remembering.

FEATURED PODCASTS & ARTICLES

My Portrait sessions aren't traditional

They're explorations. We might spend three hours together, sometimes more. There really isn’t a limit.
We talk, we move, we let things unfold in your pace with your needs in mind. I work primarily on location where you feel most comfortable, and occasionally in studio when the work calls for it.

I photograph individuals, creatives, professionals, and anyone seeking portraits that reflect who they actually are. My clients often come to me when they're ready to stop performing, when they want images that show the fullness of who they've become, or who they've always been beneath the surface.

What I offer isn't just a service. It's permission.
Permission to take up space.
Permission to be seen without apology.
Permission to exist exactly as you are.
