2 Brides Photography

2 Brides Photography was established in 2010 by Isabelle Hesselberg, a photographer based in Stockholm, Sweden.

Having photographed over 400 weddings, Isabelle has mastered the art of incredible lighting, elegant composition, and impeccable timing to create fine art photos in a romantic yet editorial style. After a lifetime of involvement in the arts, she intuitively understands what medium will best align with a wedding’s story and style, whether utilizing a drone or selecting film stock. This ensures that the photos will not only look as beautiful tomorrow as they do when shared decades from now but also retain their timeless quality, reassuring you of the lasting value of her work.

With a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in photography, Isabelle draws inspiration from master painters, sculptors, and designers to infuse her work with color, composition, light, movement, and depth. With over a decade of experience, Isabelle has honed her ability to embrace the uniqueness of each wedding. She works closely with couples and their planning team to create a deeply personal and unique narrative that captures the story, beauty, and emotion of a wedding celebration.

Based in Sweden, Isabelle travels, photographing approximately 25 events a year across Europe and the Middle East, serving both local and destination clients.

“From the moment she arrived, Isabelle’s warm and approachable presence put us at ease. She has a unique ability to make you feel comfortable and relaxed, which truly shows in the beautiful, natural photos she captured.”

Creative.
Joyful.
Magical.
If I have a free Sunday I would spend it …
at home by our pool, reading, enjoying the sun and time with my family.
My most memorable travel experience was …
my first trip to Israel, I was 17 and stayed for a couple of months meeting family members that I didn't even know I had.
What I love most about my job is …
that I take photos, you can feel. On a wedding day, I'm there to turn my clients' moments into a solid piece of their history.
I love where I live because …
it's not only pretty, but it's also very safe. I'm 30 minutes outside of Stockholm, in the archipelago, and there's honestly nowhere else I'd rather live.
My favourite movie is …
I can't pick one; I'm a movie buff, so I have to name three, in no particular order: The Constant Gardener, The Exorcist and Schindler's List
The pets I own are …
a Siberian Cat, he just moved in with us, and his name is Gizmo (yes, told you I'm a movie buff, haha)

"What more can I say other than she is absolute perfection. I remember seeing Isabelle’s profile on Instagram and was immediately enamored, her work was so stunning I was hoping she wouldn’t be booked for our date. Being two Americans having a destination wedding in Sweden while reconnecting with my roots and Swedish family, it was so important to find the photographer who could capture these very special moments. If I could describe Isabelle when we first met during our zoom meeting, she exudes warmth, confidence and love. The stars aligned and she was available for our date so we immediately knew she was the one to be there for our big day! Everyone LOVED Isabelle, so many of our guests came up to us after and said how impressed they were with her. We have nothing but praises to sing about Isabelle, she is more than a photographer but practically family now!"

"Isabelle photographed our wedding in Stockholm and we are so so happy that we decided to work with her. For the 18 months leading up to it she was always on hand to advise with timings/vendors and discuss logistics and she is incredibly professional – on top of everything and making things happen. On the day itself she put us at ease with her friendly manner. She was always present taking photos but managed to do this whilst remaining amongst the crowd/in the background, never disrupting the natural flow of the wedding. The photos look AMAZING – they are a work of art. We cannot praise Isabelle highly enough!
