Olga Constantia Segerberg (1868–1951) was a Swedish photographer and suffragist. In 1892, she opened a studio in Karlskrona but when her brother-in-law who was also a photographer died in 1901, she took over his studio in Arvika, later opening branches in the surrounding area. An active proponent of women's rights, Segerberg chaired the Arvika branch of the National Association for Women's Suffrage (LKPR) and was active as a photographer in LKPR's branch in Färgelanda. Segerberg and her partner Brita Crone were featured in an exhibition at the Sågudden Open Air Museum in 2020.
