The studio

A small studio that shoots like it’s personal.

Studio Söder is Elin Sandberg and a rotating cast of second shooters, retouchers and film hands. We started in a one-room studio on Södermalm in 2014 and never saw a reason to get bigger than the work.

We shoot digital and film, in the studio and on location, for people and the brands they build. However we work, the brief is the same — make a picture worth keeping.

What we shoot

Four things, done properly.

Tell us which one you need — or the two that overlap. Every shoot is led by Elin, start to finish.

Portrait

Studio and location portraits for people, teams and press — relaxed, and flattering without lying.

Individuals · Teams · Press

Editorial

Story-led shoots for magazines, fashion and culture — concept, cast and crew handled end to end.

Fashion · Culture · Print

Events

Weddings, launches and openings shot quietly — you’ll forget we’re in the room until the gallery lands.

Weddings · Launches · Openings

Brand

Product, still life and founder stories that give a brand a face — shot for web, print and social in one go.

Product · Still life · Founders
How we work

Brief to gallery, without the drama.

Four steps, a flat quote, and dates we hold to.

01

Brief

We talk through what you need, who’s in front of the lens and where. You get a clear plan and a flat quote — no surprises later.

02

Shoot

A calm, well-run day: direction when you want it, space when you don’t. We shoot more than we’ll ever use.

03

Edit

We cull hard and retouch with restraint. You see a proof gallery and pick favourites before anything is final.

04

Deliver

High-res files, web-ready exports and usage rights — delivered within two weeks, usually sooner.

Elin has an eye for the half-second before everyone remembers there’s a camera. The new campaign is the best the brand has ever looked — and the shoot was the easiest day of the launch.
