Who is the woman behind the camera?

I’m a photographer, wife and mother of one teenager and one young adult, based in Porvoo, Finland. With over eleven years of professional experience, I’ve had the privilege of documenting thousands of meaningful moments, and I feel confident and completely at home behind the camera. I’m naturally upbeat, warm and full of positive energy, with an easy laugh and a bubbly personality. At the same time, I’m deeply empathetic and known for my ability to truly see and understand people and the different seasons of life they’re in.

I’m warm, easygoing and a little goofy at heart, which helps people relax, feel comfortable and often forget that the camera is even there. I’m often called a bit of a baby whisperer, with a calm and patient approach that seems to soothe even the tiniest clients.

My style is natural, timeless and sometimes touched with a hint of vintage. I’m drawn to soft light, meaningful details and a documentary way of storytelling. For me, photography is about more than beautiful images. It is about connection, emotion and telling your story in an honest and personal way.

I’m especially passionate about empowering women through sensual, artistic boudoir photography, created either in nature’s soft light or in the calm and intimate atmosphere of my studio.

When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll find me spending time with my family, traveling, going on small getaways and creating content along the way. I feel most at home in nature, out on long or short hikes or around horses, and lately I’ve discovered a passion for strength training and spending time at the gym. I’m always dreaming of more little adventures than I probably have time and money for.

I look forward to creating something meaningful together.
