With this picture, the unusual and extremely wonderful and special make up and styling of and by KC is clearly in the foreground. It was quite clear that the picture needed nothing more than to put this in the foreground and give it the full attention. The styling has something that reminded me of robes from Games of Thrones or Star Wars or similar films and that is what I tried to underlined with the retouching.
When it comes to you, I break all the rules..

This was the very first shooting for my model Rosi.
I was really surprised of her moves in front of the camera.
We have taken a lot of exiting pictures, one better than the other.
It was really a impressing shooting.
Thank you Rosi !!

This photograph was taken at a local plant nursery with model Mara Anderson and make-up artist Alanna Garcia. In this photo, I wanted Mara to be enveloped by the surroundings so that her beauty and the natural beauty around her would be inseparably intertwined.
This photo was not meant to happen. 30 minutes after the planned starting time of the session and still counting, I waited for the young lady to finish her meticulous preparations for her confirmation photo session. I soon realized that we did not have enough time to carry out the session as I had planned it. Disappointed, I ended up having only 15 minutes with her until our time was up. The results were not my best work. I was not happy with this, so I set up another session with her in the evening in downtown Helsinki. There everything clicked - not just my shutter. In the Old Church Park the session got the time and attention it deserved, and our efforts were awesomely rewarded with the creamy light and evening sun dancing in the background.
This is a simple portrait. The model has really magnetic eyes and I wanted to create something intimate, ton convey what I saw in her beautiful eyes. The black and white allowed me to show the contrast and the shapes better. Shooting at 1.4 made it simple to isolate this amazing subject. So intense.
This great model, Alina Pastsenko drove 500 kilometers to be photographed by me and we did some portraiture and some boudoir. Stunning model, those eyes can bring stories to life as you can see
This beautiful young lady came to my studio to get pictures for casting as an actor. She agreed modelling for me and my Mamiya camera. This is one out of many pictures taken that day.
The model in this image, Karol, is an expert aerialist and yogi. The photo was taken using Profoto B 1 monolights, at Splash Light Studios, located in the Wynwood area in Miami, Florida.
The model in this image is Carrie Kelman, who is an accomplished gymnast and dancer. The photo was taken at the Image Flow Studios, in Mill Valley, California.
Taken in a Castle in Switzerland in January 2017. The temperature was around 10 degrees in the room (outdoor -5 degress). We used a heater for about 6 hours but the room was still as cold as in the morning. Vita (@vitagoncharuk ) and I decided to go with this blue Dress instead of the shoulderfree one. It was the right decision! I used a 180cm umbrella, turned slightly away from Vita, relativatly close to her. I wanted to have a soft light with a natural fall off in the corners of the Picture. The posing should fit to old paintings in the background. Vita did a great job!
Severine is beautiful and expressive. In this picture, I was trying to show just that: a quiet, concentrated direct look, wonderful eyes and beautiful hair and beautiful light from the side.
Raha, my beautiful subject for this shoot, is an exceptional woman. She is the youngest Arab and the first Saudi woman to conquer Mount Everest. Tall order...How to capture this exception spirit? This was the feeling I went into the shoot with. At the same time, I had do ensure I made her feel comfortable, relaxed. She had to trust me. All that in a matter of a few minutes. But it was her spirit that produced the results. She allowed me and the camera to see her truth. Peaceful and beautiful.

One in a series of self-portraits, there is an introspection, a self-awareness, a plaintive countenance to this particular still - more so than any other I include within this series - that defines this woman, myself, who I AM with no uncertain clarity: just there...the melancholia. There...sorrow. There, in the shadows...regret. Yet there is also a strength that pulses from within the image - and it is this strength that stands alone.
Nathalie embodies wonderful sweetness with youthfulness and delicacy. I wanted to bring all this into the portrait.
I also experimented with light again. In this case, with a second light source, a strip light, which highlight the wonderful blonde hair super beautiful.
Name: The Red Dress
Description: The picture was taken in studio and the main goal was to represent woman sensuality.

My title for this Picture is "When Life is pouring down on you". english is not my first language. so, forgive me if it sounds not quite right. I was going for a lost look for the picture, showing a woman lost in thoughts, seeing that she is feeling blue, trying to protect herself under a umbrella - yet distant, not in reach to give her comfort. And Vita (@vitagoncharuk ) did a great job. Thank you, Vita.
