Portraits in Norway

Ida and her friend Emma will soon be confirmed. This is a major milestone in the life of Norwegian teenagers and it involves a big celebration for family and friends. I was asked to take a few portraits that they could use to make their invitations. Unfortunately the national costumes they will wear aren’t quite ready yet, as I would have loved to photograph the girls in their traditional dresses. But they look lovely in their everyday clothes and managed to look comfortable and relaxed despite the temperate – I supposed they’re more used to it! For the photographers who are interested, I only took my Fuji X100 with me to Norway, so all these images (and the personal ones I posted a couple of days ago) were all taken on that.
