This was a very enjoyable marathon 5 hour shoot north of Helsinki.  The models are wearing authentic antique period clothing and embodied the spirit of the clothing perfectly.  Make up and hair were done by the very talented Lotta Eloranta and I had the pleasure of styling the models.  This was a collaborative shoot with fellow Finnish photographer Marko Saari.

Spring is finally here in Finland and I am booking fast.  As such, I’m having to find time between shooting and processing and only have two images to show for now.  But I look forward to going through and processing the rest of the outfits!

Model Katarina perfectly embodies the spirit of the Guilded Age 1908 era wool travel suit and cotton broderie anglaise petticoat.
