About Tanja 
WEDDING PHOTOGRAPHER CITY HALL

 

I have worked as a photographer for 10 years and have photographed over 120 weddings. For me, every wedding is unique regardless of size. Why do I love being a wedding photographer at City Hall?  I love City Hall because there are so many different stylish, minimalist and calm photo environments. I love to take bright, airy pictures with a lot of emotion in them. Bringing out emotions in pictures is one of the most important tasks for me as a photographer on your big day! There are many who say that we feel uncomfortable being photographed and then look absolutely fantastic in the picture! For me, it is important that you get a wonderful photo session with your loved ones or just the two of you. I love working as a wedding photographer in city Hall

Ceremony in City Hall

01 BOOK

Getting married in the City Hall is easy and fast! The civil wedding in the City Hall is only 5 minutes long and you get married civilly.  You book a wedding easily via the City Hall's website​ but be there at a good time when you can be it can be a 4-7 months waiting time depending on the season. The wedding itself costs SEK 800. What you need to have with you is valid identification and 2 witnesses. If you do not have any guests, for example, a photographer can be a witness, and someone from the staff on site. You also need to apply for an obstacle examination on the Swedish Tax Agency's website, it is valid for  4 months. It is also possible to book a lift if needed for the elderly or disabled. When you have booked your wedding, it may be time to book all other suppliers. Many of my appointments fill up quickly and it is best to book a photographer immediately when you have decided on a date. As a florist, I recommendBloomspourmoiand as a make-up artist and hair stylist Sara Ollinen

02 DURING THE CEREMONY

The civil wedding ceremony at the City Hall only lasts about 5 minutes. What you need to bring are valid IDs and 2 witnesses. If you don’t have any guests, the photographer and a member of the staff on-site can serve as witnesses. You can enter the City Hall approximately 10-15 minutes beforehand, check in with your IDs, and then walk up the grand staircase, which is a wonderful spot for taking photos.

After that, you wait for your turn and are called into the Oval Room, where nearly all weddings take place. As mentioned, the ceremony is quick, and I recommend walking in slowly, standing close to each other, and hugging for a cozier photo. For the ceremony itself, you can bring up to 10 guests, including children and your wedding photographer

03 AFTER THE CEREMONY

Outside the City Hall, your guests can blow bubbles or simply cheer for you. If it's dark outside, you can create a sparkler tunnel, which looks beautiful in photos! We’ll finish with a few more portrait shots and/or group photos.

It was very important for us to have our special day documented, and we are so happy that Tanja was able to photograph us. Her pictures are magical. It's easy to stand in front of her camera, and you never feel uncomfortable. So thank you so much for being there for us on our day.

What if it rains?
 

The City Hall is an incredibly stylish venue for getting married and capturing wedding portraits regardless of the season. The ceremony itself is usually completed in just a few minutes, leaving ample time for beautiful and emotional wedding portraits. As a wedding photographer, I often recommend City Hall especially during rainy weather, as there are at least 2 beautiful outdoor sheltered backgrounds and 3 indoor ones. I usually advise couples to consider photographing at City Hall even if their wedding ceremony takes place elsewhere, particularly on rainy days. Additionally, I always bring a transparent umbrella with me, as it works perfectly for capturing photos even in open spaces during rainy weather

01 SPRING

A slightly darker season, but still great opportunities for bright photos. The wild vines are beautiful until the end of October. If you want a larger package, it's also possible to take photos by the yellow trees in Rålambshov Park.

It's quite a bright time of the year. In May, you can take photos with the green willow trees, water, and architecture

The brightest part of the year allows for photography until around 7:00-8:00 PM. Afternoon and evening light is preferable as it is softer. Great backgrounds include willow trees, water, and architecture

If you want bright photos, you need to schedule the ceremony during daylight hours—until around 2-3 PM. If you're okay with photos in the dark, it's perfectly fine to photograph with flash in the afternoon/evening.

Briefly about the City Hall
 

In the heart of Stockholm is the City Hall, which was designed by architect Ragnar Östberg in 1902 and was originally intended to be both a council and City Hall. It was completed in 1923 and with its 106 m is Stockholm's 7th tallest building. In 2023, the City Hall turned 100 years old and an infinite number of brides and grooms have married there. There are many fun works of art such as  The relief Andrée's polar expedition in 1897 by the artist Stig Blomberg which hangs by the colonnade. There are about 60 couples who get married there every Saturday. In addition, it  is the place in Sweden where most people get married.
