REAL STORIES
I do a lot of weddings every year, and my clients are from all over Europe coming to Gran Canaria to get married. I am one of the photographers featured by the Canary Islands Tourist board.
Here is just a few of all weddings I have done in the past.

Photographer: Mette Brandt Hair and Makeup: Giolina Braun/Beautiful Bride Company Venue: Het Ruiterhuys In July this summer, I had the pleasure to be booked to do Yukari and Simons wedding in their home country the Netherlands. It was no coincidence that I was booked to their wedding as I had already done a maternity shoot with them when they were on holiday here at Gran Canaria and we got such a good contact with each other. So when they asked (Geir and) me to come to Netherlands to do their wedding, I did a quickly search in my calendar and...

This summer has been really busy for me. Yet I have not been able to take out any holiday, but I have really met many, many lovely people that I have been working with this summer. I haven´t had so much time to use on my web site either, but I would like to show some photos we took of Tove and Kristian at Bahia Feliz. Tove and Kristian got married in the Norwegian Church in Arguineguin, but they stayed at Bahia Feliz and really wanted us to take their photos their. I have not been there so many times before, but hope to do more sessions...

Aine and Craig from Irland had their dream wedding at Lopesan Costa Meloneras Resort Spa and Casino. I came in as a “rescue”- photographer for them, as the photographer they booked became sick. And I am so glad I could be of help for the lovely couple. They had their dream wedding, organized by The Perfect Wedding Company. Thank you so much, Aine and Craig, it was such a pleasure to be a part of this beautiful wedding and to be with you on your wedding...

Monica and Ole Kristian had their dream wedding at Hotel Lopesan Costa Meloneras Resort, Spa & Casino, which is a very elegant and beautiful location for weddings. Monica and Ole Kristian is from Norway, but the family from the mother side of Monica, is from Gran Canaria. Guests were therefore both from Norway and from Gran Canaria gathered this day. I was with the couple from morning to night, total 16 hours and this is one of the long lasting weddings I have photographed. When photographing weddings, it’s rare I sit down, relax...

This wedding is on of my favorites. Celine Michaela and Jon Anders choose to celebrate their wedding at Gran Canaria, where Celine have been living some years with her family. Celine and Jon Anders are Jehovah’s Witnesses , and therefor their marriage legally took place in Norway before they went to their paradise island. So, what they had in Gran Canaria, was a “blessing” ceremony held by a member of their congregation. The ceremony was held at Rossini in Arguineguin, in the wonderful pool area, just in front of the ocean,...

There are many beautiful destinations on Gran Canaria to get married. Most of the foreigners coming to the island, choose some place in the south, like Meloneras, Maspalomas, Playa del Ingles, Arguineguin or Puerto Mogán. But not Marie and Tobias from Germany. They chose a very special and beautiful garden north on the island, in Agaete. That is the place where the ferry goes over to Tenerife. The garden is near the harbor, and Marie and Tobias wanted to have their individual photos taken there after the ceremony in the garden. It was...

Amanda and Steve had a very beautiful ceremony for their special day. They had chosen to have an outdoor ceremony in the beautiful garden at Seaside Palm Beach, Meloneras. Together with just their two extremely charming kids, Lilly and George, and Steve´s lovely mum, it was the most charming and beautiful ceremony you could imagine. And it was so fun! Amanda and Steve´s kids are such full of life and fun, and made this wedding something to remember. Thank you so much Amanda and Steve, it was wonderful to be a part of your day. We wish you all...

Jarnfrid and Tom got married in the Norwegian church, gathered with their friends and family. This ceremony was very special, Tom had composed most of the music, and their friend William (and a former groom of mine), played the organ in the church. Jarnfried had designed her dress and looked stunning in it. They had their reception at the Lopesan Costa Meloneras Resort, Corallium Spa & Casino in Meloneras, a really classy and beautiful place to celebrate a wedding. If you like to see a few more photos from this wedding, look into my...
