OLA LAB began with a simple belief: photography should feel like you.
I am Carola, a photographer, a mother, and a storyteller. The name OLA carries a few meanings that are close to my heart. It is part of my own name, means “hello” in many languages, and reminds me of the calm and energy of a wave. LAB is where ideas flow, where creativity meets emotion.
From the quiet magic of a newborn’s first days to the bold glow of motherhood, my work is about connection, emotion, and real stories told with care.
Sessions are available in English, French, or German so you can feel at home in your own language.
I can only recommend OLA LAB to renew your private and/or business portrait photos!
Throughout the whole session she gave me the feeling “not being watched”, staying natural and getting the opportunity of having pictures of myself I can truly say “that’s me”!
Every story I capture is unique, and hearing your experience helps other families and creatives discover OLA LAB.
If you feel like sharing a few kind words, you can leave your review on Google. It only takes a minute and makes a big difference.
