This is a picture taken in last autumn. The shoot was basically finished and the girl was ready to go. I persuaded her to a few super relaxed sunny photos. I wanted a shot of her feeling relaxed on a perfect day at sunset. These pics were almost the most beautiful pics of this day.
A dreamy child portrait under a dramatic natural light where I shot against the sun in order to purposely create a lens flare which spilled over the subject. The dual toning of warm vs cold was given extra care in order to add depth to the portrait and immerse the girl more in her surroundings all while making her effortlessly standout.
This is photo of my series ´feel and pain´. The amazing @jennaaota had the courage, to look behind the bandage. It was an idea of me and thanks jenna, which she has participated in.
Captured in december 2016.
Tatiana and her fiance have 2 kids and plan to get merried in summer 2017.
I adore couples that trust me to capture the best moments of their lifes.
They made that wonderful winter day as a lovely snow story.
Trully emotions and live, storrytelling composition with minimum post-processing.
It is always a chalenge for me - capture a fairytale for couple with happy end and eternal love and affection ever after.
I really love the wonderful, strong colors of the autumn leaves,
mixed with the sunset light and the prettiness of my model.
One of my best photos I have ever taken !!
Thank you, Jennifer!

Russia, Moscow. August 2014.
From a series of studio-photo-shoots in Moscow.
Spring perfection. This is a picture taken last spring. The girl was sitting in a field. I asked the model to just dress the way she felt most comfortable. I wanted a shot of her feeling relaxed, feeling like she's feeling when everything's perfectly fine, on a perfect spring evening, at sunset.

I made a whole series of pictures with Laura. One was more beautiful than the other, because Laura is so pretty and so professional at the same time. When I look at it this picture still touches me again and again in a very special way. An incredible expression, a bit serious, but very intense and direct.
I took this portrait with Katja, amazing model here in Joensuu, Finland. We were just playing around with ideas and trying different things with my new studio at old locomotive barracks and we made this beautiful portrait of her.
This was a special shoot with two young beauty girls, wich are sisters. Both have so amazing hair, that i decided to show that on a picture.
I met Anna around a year ago during her pregnancy.
We made few shootings together about her maternity and giving birth. But, she is such an amazing woman, so i wanted to capture her natural beauty and show it in the best way.
Fantastic glance plus red berries and greeness make this pictures interesting and piercing.
The beautiful, Iris Woo is a singer and model in Vancouver. The photo session was so special as she performed a number of Jazz standards with heart and soul. Her presence filled the room. It is such a privilege to capture her passion and share it with a wider audience.
This image was taken during a wedding reception at the Pittsburgh Glass Center. The beautiful bride walked into her groom's cigar bar, grabbed a cigar and turned with a smile on her face. In that instant, a moment was captured that will last a lifetime.
I simply love telling background stories about the photo itself, the model (here @stevenepprecht) and the teamwork, which proves to be key (at least for me). Behind blue eyes, I'd say or rather sing. We both fell in love immediately with the available light on this location. It accentuates his face in a beautiful and still authentic way. No extra light needed. To work with this outstanding male model and at the same time very very good friend is always an honor (and a lot of fun!). It is not only his appearance (we all can see that) but rather his tireless attitude, talent and passion. These aspects combined with my perfectionistic goal to get the "WOW-captures" make the job so incredibly beautiful.
This photo has its origin on a warm lovely summer day.
Michelle is one of my favorite models.
Her posing in front of the camera is really magnificent.
Thank you Michelle

Ecological threats, like global warming, are evidence of climate change, including heat waves, rising sea-levels, flooding, melting glaciers, early arrival of spring, and coral reef bleaching.
With this image, I attempt to portray the astounding beauty of coral reefs - a reminder that perhaps that it is not too late to act promptly to mitigate its effects, and how each of us can contribute to a solution.

My's artistic success implies that the most important thing about portrait photography is an interest in your subject. The difference between a good portrait photo and an amazing portrait photo comes down to artistic sensitivity and the ability of evoking and capturing a unique moment. Understanding and connecting with whoever I am photographing is essential, and my photography is immensely influenced by who is standing in front of my lens
What started out as a completely different theme for this session turned out for the better.
This session was meant to take place in the water but ended up being done in the lush greens.
