Painting faces with Julia

How did the 2012 go by so fast? The past few days I've been wondering how short a time it feels now that I think how much has happened. Especially with my photography. I have come basically from zero to where I am now with my people photography in a one short year. How is that possible? 

Anyways..The first shoot of the year was with Julia. On Wednesday I went out to buy some face paint, and I got to play with them on Julia's face. 

Thanks to Pasi & Sofia also for helping with the lights and keeping my dog entertained. :P



Another exciting photoshoot :D

The best of the last few shoots

I'm gonna be lazy now and instead of posting all the photos of all the shoots I've done these past few weeks, I'm going to post the best shots from each shoot and link to the whole sets in my gallery site. Click the images to see the whole sets! :)

I find it quite baffling that people are willing to travel over hundred kilometers to have their photos taken by me (with the TFCD principle). Eerika was one of such people. She came from Seinäjoki to spend her weekend in Tampere and to do a photoshoot with me.
This image ended up being something totally different than what I had planned. I wanted a proper photoshop project and that I got. After many hours and many deep breaths, this is what I came up with.


Then I had an extempore photoshoot with a friend of mine, Priscilla, and her tiny little chihuahua, Tirppa. I got to train my makeup skills on her, and we ended up taking shots with more natural look and also with something little bit wilder.


Two weeks ago I had the luxury to have my dear Heidi here again and she wanted a new "normal looking" profile photo for Facebook. I got to play a makeup artist with her too, and as it was the "dress in pink" -day (to show appreciation to the breast cancer survivors and the people who battle with it), we went all pink.


Last but definitely not the least, I had another model travel for a photoshoot. Krista came from Vantaa and we had a wonderful day. She wanted something more natural for her portfolio, so we went to the beach and took these cold-day-at-the-beach kind of photos. Then I wanted to do something wilder, and as the Halloween was right around the corner, we decided to go with the Dark Lady look. I also had my wonderful assistant and friend, Pasi, with me and he helped me to play with flashes for the first time.

Behind the scenes -teaser

Two weeks ago I had the immense pleasure of having the lovely Heidi spend the weekend with me here in Tampere. I don't think it would be possible for us not to make magic happen when we're together, so naturally that's what we did this time as well.
We had a wonderful day with an assorted bunch of very...hmm...interesting people. The fun was inevitable. ;)
Thanks for the awesome day to Heidi, Sape, Pasi & Sofia! I have a feeling this won't be the last one of these...

Here's a little teaser of the day in the form of BTS-material, shot by Sofia Solanakis (this time I got the name right on the first try, yey ;P).

Heidi & Sape

Back when I was planning the practice shoots for couples' photography, Heidi and I came up with this idea about her and some 'co-star' in gothic love photos. Sape - who I'd met in the Jesus photoshoot - was a perfect "leading man", not only because I knew those two would look SO good together, but I knew they'd also get along very well - and so they did.

Sanni vol. 1

I had a wonderful photoshoot with Sanni and Masi today! I certainly can't complain that I get to spend my time taking amazing pics (if I may say so myself) of such amazing creatures. :) More coming up tomorrow.

I think this one might be the best shot I've taken to the date.

And somehow the roles were switched at one point and I ended up on "the wrong side" of the camera. :)
