ABOUT ME

I photograph intimate, untraditional weddings and elopements with an ethereal, poetic, and minimalistic touch. My work is guided by a quiet sense of nostalgia and romance — finding joy and beauty in the smallest, fleeting details. I’m a soulful dreamer with an artistic eye, yet precise and intentional in my craft.

In every story I tell, I aim to create space for things to unfold naturally. My approach is gentle but confident — guiding couples just enough to let their true connection and personalities shine. I love capturing the deep bond many Finnish couples share with nature, weaving it together with dreamy elegance and authentic emotion.

As a person, I’m a curious observer and an approachable child of nature, happiest when exploring the wild outdoors. My home is in Helsinki, and while I enjoy slow living, I’m always seeking new adventures in and in-between the everyday life. I’m inspired by meaningful connections, new experiences, nature and magical light. Outside of photography, I love cross-country skiing, knitting, hunting for vintage treasures and getting lost in endless psychological ponderings.

I mainly photograph in Southern Finland but happily travel further for meaningful celebrations and remote elopements. My camera has already followed love stories to Iceland, Italy, and Scotland — and I’m always ready for new commissions around the globe.
