THE LANE “In our search for the world’s most talented wedding photographers, sometimes we stumble across one that stops us. Completely. We can pull apart the elements that make a great wedding photographer – emotive captures, creative composition and artistic use of light and shade. But every now and again an artist makes that list completely irrelevant. Their work transcends criteria. Everything about their frames force you to feel, not think. There’s an inimitable magic, a poetry, and magnetism to their captures. Petter Karlstrøm, our newest discovery from Sydney’s Northern Beaches, has a talent that is truly rare in the wedding world. His portraits reveal an honest beauty, his reception shots are intricate and draw your eye to poetic details you’d otherwise miss. His fashion frames bring fabrics alive with movement and fluidity. It’s near impossible to find a photographer whose fashion shots are just as beautiful as their emotive candids, and as finessed as their lifestyle imagery. Petter’s unique background in fashion and advertising, merged with weddings weaves together technique, emotion and aesthetics, creating most beautiful, nostalgic love stories. “ Here is the whole write up about Pete’s approach to weddings and why he loves photography - The Lane
