I am a photographer specialising in interior and product photography based in Helsinki Finland. I have been a full-time photographer since 2006. In recent years. I work on assignments throughout Finland and across Europe.

My specialty is photographing interiors and office spaces, focusing on both the interior design aspects and the architecture. The combination is valuable for my clients as they want people to imagine what the feeling is when using the space.

My product work strongly focuses on luxury items, such as jewellery. Jewellery photography is one of the most technical forms of photography, which I genuinely enjoy. The products and materials have to look realistic but also evoke a feeling of the brand.

Due to my strong technical skills, I can also treat my interior work from an accuracy standpoint and not only an aesthetic or compositional standpoint. This combination describes my approach at its core, meaning that colors and surfaces should feel real on closer inspection, but the entire image should also evoke a feeling. It is easier to do one or the other, but combining them requires vision.
