Brief Summary
I fell in love with photography in 1993 while studying Audio Visual Communications in my home country, Finland. My goal was to start working with video and film, but once I got into a dark room and saw the magical transformation of a white piece of paper into a black and white photograph, I was sold. I spent most of my time taking and printing photographs.
My strongest suit in photography is in editorial, travel and lifestyle photography but I also do enjoy shooting live music and products.
I have a software engineering degree and background which partly explains my interest in the technical aspects of photography. I pride myself in understanding how cameras, lights and other apparatuses work, and how to get the most out of them. I enjoy projects that give me a technical challenge either due to the environment, ligting or otherwise and have built some of my own equipment ranging from a still life table to lighting rigs.
Currently, I live in beautiful San Francisco, but I will be more than happy to travel anywhere to take the pictures you need. I'm available for photo assignments on a very short notice
