The first member spotlight of 2026 features Scandi Photo by Åsa & Lotta, a South Florida–based portrait photography studio founded by two Swedish photographers. Åsa, originally from Kalix in Norrbotten, and Lotta, from Värnamo in Småland, create natural, timeless imagery for professionals, high school seniors, and families across Broward and Palm Beach counties.
The story of Scandi Photo began through friendship and community in Florida. Åsa and Lotta first connected when their children attended Swedish school together. They discovered not only a shared love for photography but also how well they worked together creatively. Born from shared dreams, Scandi Photo came to life in 2024.
What sets Scandi Photo apart is their Swedish background, which influences both their visual style and the way they work with clients. Their imagery is defined by clean lines, natural tones, and genuine expressions, with an emphasis on authenticity rather than heavy staging.
Sessions are calm, personal, unhurried and designed to feel more like spending time with friends than posing for a camera. From outfit selection and posing guidance to image selection and professional printed products such as albums and framed wall art, Åsa and Lotta guide clients through the entire process.
Their connection to SACC Florida grew organically through the Swedish community, including Swedish school, church events, and Nordic gatherings. Åsa also served for many years as Media Director on the SACC Florida board. When Scandi Photo was launched, becoming a business member felt like a natural next step.
Scandi Photo plans to continue building on the areas that best reflect who they are: headshots/branding photography, high school seniors, and family sessions. They will keep refining the client experience from first contact to final gallery, ensuring that working with Scandi Photo always feels warm, personal, and distinctly Åsa & Lotta.
