This frame is shot in a studio where we did build an oasis. Lighting is done is using read plants and background created using fabrics with sparkles. Thank you Ashma Aziz for modelling. This frame is one of my all time favorites.

Beautiful model (Melina Keltaniemi), wind machine and neon led tubes - you don't need anything else to create amazing frame. Lights: Godox SZ150R + Godox TL60 x2. Camera & Lens: Sony A7iv + Tamron 35-150mm 2.0-2.8

This photo is a combination of led tubes and video projector (home-made-gobo). Stripe gobo gives nice shapes and flows through model's (elegant Veera Kankare) natural curves. Expression and tones are perfect for this kind of moody photo.

Hight CR soft light, awesome model and wind machine. Recipe for a good photo. It took over 30 tries to get this frame - either wind was blowing hair to much or too little - it is tricky but when you get it right, it is definitely worth it.

A mix of slit gobo and RGB led light. I also used a wind machine to create flowing hair. Model in this frame is talented Veera Kankare. I like creative light and trying out new things.

Ultraviolet photo. I used a mix of UV and RGB led light in this one. Big thanks to our stunning model Oona Antila and stylist Katarina Kantanen. Good team makes a difference.

Cold September evening. Assistant figthting against strong wind with a big stand, monolight and softbox. Traffic going in both ways. Three of us zigzaggin' and shooting. Big kudos to our model Oona Huhtala who kept her cool and was so professional thru the whole set. One of favorite photos of my career. Despite challenging conditions we managed to produce A level content.

This photo is part of my creative lighting setup where I use projection to create gobo portrait. Stripe gobo gives nice shapes and flows through model's (awesome Emma Luukkanen) natural curves. In this frame I used black silhoutte against bright background to create a dimension. Definitely one of my favs in this set.

Street & suburbian style with a 90s flavor. Shot in a natural light with a wide angle lens. The idea was to create perspective and leading lines - I just love them :). Model is Sally Gabechava.

Shot with a stripbox & grid as a main light and led tube as a backlight / backlight to create a rim behind a model. Our goal was to achieve perfect timeless moment and simplicity in frame. Model is an elegant Matilda Wirtavuori.

Film noir theme and Hollywood light. Shot with a hard bare bulb light and used soft focus filter to create glow & bloom. Model is amazing Oona Antila and our talented stylist Nina Vuori.

The idea was to shoot a sporty frame with an 80s flavor. I added two accent lights - pink and turquoise - to achieve a little bit different and interesting look.

This shoot we planned for weeks with moodboards and which dresses to use. A model is so elegant that I had hard time to choosing best ones from a set. When this frame showed up and felt there was something magical about it - that feeling that everything clicks. I often say that I will take one true diamond everyday before 10 good ones from a photo shoot.

This photo is the first ones I took as a warm up photos. Bunch of them turned out to be the best from a shoot. Usually best photos are the last ones but sometimes you will be surprised that first ones can work too.

This photo is from extra set that we took between planned sets we had planned for weeks with moodboards and everything . Sometimes unplanned brings the best results.
