• 10 years anniversary đŸ’« I started my company as a 21 year old who didn’t know anything about taxes, marketing or how to make money. . Last night I looked at some old YouTube videos I made in the beginning, and even if I was laughing so I almost peed my self, I was really proud. I have accomplished so much that was only dreams, and I remember thinking that I never will give up, and I never did. . It’s been really hard to be honest. I had my pain from the tsunami 4 years earlier, and it was a real struggle to process that at the same time, but I also think that made the whole difference for me. I didn’t want it to be comfortable and nice, I wanted challenges and I was not afraid of them. . For me the inspiration comes from something bigger, I do this for my sister who couldn’t live her life. I do this for my promise when I was hanging in the palm tree during the tsunami, praying to God and promising to always fulfil my dreams. That force and adrenaline when you know your life is in danger is indescribable. I feel it in every part of my body while writing this, that force is so strong. I never let go of that palm tree, and I will never give up my dreams 🙏 . . THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart for always supporting me. I can’t describe how much it means to me. I know many of you have been hanging around from the start, so here’s for 10 more years guys! 🎉 . Photo by @lingmerthphotography 🌾

  • My beautiful bestie Lisa ⭐ . I started my company 10 years ago (having a celebration next week 🎉) and all my friends had to be there for all my crazy ideas. . Lisa had to sit in a bathtub with a questionable outfit, sitting on a roof, laying on the ground on top of a tacky IKEA blanket and so on... At least she didn't have strawberries in her ear (another brilliant idea of mine I did to another friend). . . Thank God I find inspiration in other things than IKEA blankets and fruits nowadays.... 😂 I get the question often where I get my inspiration. It's mostly from the light in different ways. I can create a image by just seeing a meadow in the right light. I also get inspired by traveling, listening to music and having days off. . . My best way to find inspiration in stressful days is to walk by the sea, listening to Oceans by Hillsong. That song fills my heart with calmness every time 🙏 . . Please share your favorite no-stress song with me 😍 . . #gravidfotografering #maternity #pregnant #bf2019

  • Editorial for @hairtalkextensions ⭐ . I'm so ready for fall and winter now! The rustic trees, soft sun and pale colors, love it 🎇 . For Sweden: Ni som Ă€r fotografer kanske tycker hösten Ă€r skit och kallar det lĂ„gsĂ€song, men vet ni att sĂ„ behöver det inte alls vara 😎 De senaste Ă„ren har jag jobbat lika mycket under hela Ă„ret och efterfrĂ„gan har inte minskat. Det handlar till största del att sĂ€lja det du visar. . Om du bara visar sommarbilder sĂ„ tror kunden att det Ă€r det som finns. Du mĂ„ste visa och sĂ€lja det vackra med vintern, för jag lovar att kunder har lika stor köplust i november som juli! 👊 . ⭐ NĂ„got kul och efterfrĂ„gat: Jag och min kollega Gabriella slĂ€pper vĂ„rt 6 veckors program Boost-programmet nĂ€sta vecka med start 1 oktober 🎉 Det Ă€r ett onlineprogram du gĂ„r med andra kreativa sjĂ€lar som vill göra en förĂ€ndring. . FörĂ€ndringen handlar mycket om din instĂ€llning, dina mĂ„l, arbetssĂ€tt och rutiner, och ger dig en vĂ€ldigt effektiv spark i baken. Det Ă€r ingen lull-lull kurs utan vĂ€ldigt konkret och ibland obekvĂ€m, inget för dig som bara vill ha beröm 💛 Allt vi gör Ă€r noga uttĂ€nkt och bevisat att hjĂ€lpa dig lyckas. . . Med oss i gruppen och andra deltagare som hejar pĂ„ Ă€r det svĂ„rare att ta tag i det sen. Nu Ă€r nu, inga ursĂ€kter 👊 Vi kör en livesĂ€ndning pĂ„ onsdag för att berĂ€tta mer om programmet.

  • Queen @kenzas đŸ’« New edit from this amazing day. . I get so happy when I see influencers using their platforms to make a difference. When we had the big election in Sweden a lot of influencers made a statemant in their social media. It was brave, cause we have a lot of bajsnödiga people in Sweden who thinks you should just post pretty pictures and texts about how wonderful life is. . . The day I posted my opinions about the election I lost about 400 followers, it was not a coincidence. Staying true to myself and making an change (I received about 200 messages that same day) is so much more important for me. . . I'm confident that all influencers made a big change in the election, and I'm so proud about their bravery. . . Thank you Kenza and all others for raising your voices, you are true role models ⭐

  • Good morning world 💗 Today I want to share something else important for you, my most important things to be successful in life and work: . . ⭐ You must LOVE what you do. I mean seriously longing for it! If you don't and everything else is ok you should really reconsider a change. If you love what you do you have an extra power and halfway there 👊 . . ⭐ Stop comparing yourself to others.This is the biggest poison to your love and inspiration in your life. Stop following accounts that doesn't give you a sh*t but bad feelings. . . ⭐ Listen to YOU. I stopped listening to other people's opinions a few years ago, and it made all the difference for me. I can read gossip about myself but honestly I don't give a damn. That feeling is so important for me to continue towards my dream. . ⭐ Be prepared that it takes time, hard work and sacrifices. Success doesn't knock on the door, you have to fight for it, be patient, fail, try again, fail, try something else, and never stop. This is why so few people succeed, cause they give up. They are not willing to do the hard work. . . ⭐ Set up real goals. Don't just think it, write it down and set goals for 6, 12, 18 and 24 months. If you don't have goals your brain don't know which direction to go and you won't be motivated. . . ⭐ Be kind. To yourself mostly, but also to others. Don't trash talk anyone and be humble ❀ . . If you REALLY set your mind to these tips, I promise you will come a LONG way. These are the most essential things for me, and I will be happy to share more. . . Now go and do what you love, and don't you dare give up because other people think so đŸ‘Šâ€ I believe in you.

  • Flower tops ⭐ I started with these tops 1,5 year ago and it's so exciting to find this idea in other ways with other photographers 😍 . I get the question often How does it feel being copied all the time?. And as a teacher for so many photographers I think it's only natural to get inspiration from someone in the beginning. Honestly I'm so into my own work and I'm only happy to encourage so many people following their dreams. The time will come when everyone choose their own path of photography đŸ“· . . Since it's early morning in Sweden I would like to share a few tips to make your day better: . . ⭐ Don't snooze. This will not help you feel more awake. Just leave the bed! . . ⭐ Smile big when you open your eyes. This way you are telling the brain this is a good day. You choose the attitude of the day and how you react to things happening. . . ⭐ Give yourself TIME for things that's good for you. A long walk, yoga, praying, working out or a long breakfast. . ⭐ Leave time for gratitude and appreciate the small things. Don't compare to others and don't follow accounts that makes you feel bad 💗 . . Let's start this day you guys, you can do it! 👊 . #gravidfotografering #maternityshoot #pregnant #femaryah

  • After darkness comes light, also in my pictures 😂 . . The main question I've got after releasing Femaryah is Are you just going to take DARK pictures now?! And the answer is mjaaa as we say in Sweden. I will mostly publish darker pictures cause I LOVE the mystic feeling, but occasionally I will show some brighter pictures as well. Like this shoot, pastel dream from @bymalina together with light rocks, it would be a crime to darken it đŸ€·â€â™€ïž . . Now when Femaryah is out it's time to release some more online courses as well ⭐ I will launch internationally as well, and also release at least 3 new Swedish courses this fall/winter đŸ“· I've sold over 12 000 courses during the year and I really love to educate photographers 👊 . Would you like me to share some photo tips here as well? Maybe in video if I can keep the bird out of the frame 🩅 Let me know (if you want the bird in the video let me know as well). Okay that's the ordbajs for today (Swedish expression). Have a nice evening 😘 . #femaryah #bymalina #sweedlashes
