landscape/birch trees

Spring time

Sweden

Birch tree is my favorite tree, don't know really why, maybe because it reminds me of my Sweden... there are so many of them... 

or because I just love the combination of the white, black and light green colors

CLEA 

as

Frida  Kahlo

This is my daughter Clea, she is 6, she has a twin brother Joshua

One day I brought her to the studio, we were doing so great photos...

This is a fun one; in the end of the day we added a mustache and large eyebrows 

et voila.... a mini Frida Kahlo was born ;)

MY CLEA

I love this serie with my daughter 

this is so Clea... always happy and smiling but a little bit shy a the same time (like her mother maybe ;))

She had a so big time with my assistants/friends,

Merci Joe n' Camelia to make her day!

NEW YORK

My teacher at my Photo-classes, M. Hervé Le Goff, a brilliant and competent journalist and critique photo within the world of photos in France,
wrote and edited this story about New York that I shoot in 2008...    

Merci Hervé        

"Ces photographies de Manhattan qui semblent finir l’année 2012 ou commencer 2013 ont déjà quatre ans, elles font partie de l’histoire du monde. Quelques semaines auparavant, la faillite Lehman Brothers laissait apparaître les signes d’une crise qui allait faire trembler le système économique mondial. Ce 31 décembre 2008, Petra Källsbäck se promène sur les avenues de Manhattan qu’elle trouve étrangement désertes : plus que le froid, la crise enfermait les gens chez eux, à abri des tentations de Tiffany & Co ou de Bloomingdale. Longeant la cinquième avenue, Central Park qui ne semble guère plus animé offre son paysage artificiel et aristocratique, tel que l’avaient imaginé trois écrivains du dix-neuvième siècle. Le spectacle des grands arbres qui se dessinent nus sur la falaise des gratte-ciels est plutôt beau. Il réserve la surprise de la patinoire, oasis gelée mais vibrant de l’insouciance de New-yorkais qui, dans la lumière oblique d’un soleil qui se couche tôt, laissaient la crise rejoindre les avatars du capitalisme."

Théodore

My son

This is my oldest son, he's turning 10 in September...on the 11th

I remember, nearly 10 years ago I prayed and asked my belly to stay calm that night 

of the 11th of September

But no, no, Théodore always follow his instinct, very determined and know exactely where he's going

He has always done, he will always do!
