It was a bit wet from all the rain in the night – but what a beautiful and bright morning. Images from when photographers meet up.

Autumn is approaching in Finland and the colors in my yard are changing into the beautiful colors of the season.
A Blend From an Agricultural Field

I always try to incorporate the texture of the location I am shooting into the actual shots themselves. This particular texture, one of my favorites, is from a surprising source (shh, it’s a secret!)
Return to an 18th Century Mansion

This was a fun challenge – the lighting is so dramatically different throughout the entire area. Adding to the difficulty were storm clouds moving in and out of sunshine. One minute the light would be perfect and then the next it would change completely. But who wants a boring shoot?
I processed this one a bit different. It seemed such a dreamy picture that it cried out for a different type of treatment.
Kids will be kids!
And in a bit darker lighting

A shoot enjoying the all too brief warm days of Summer.
Stalked By The Rain!

It rained on and off all during this shoot. All I can say that the rain always started just as we would step out of the car – it knew we were coming. This should give you a good idea of stalking rain!
But the light on rainy days is so wonderful!
A Mother-Daughter Session At The Park

This mom is a really great person and I thoroughly enjoyed doing this shoot. Both were energetic and fun and everything I hope for when someone books a session with me!
A Gazebo and a White Dress
June 16, 2008 | Filed Under Personal | 1 Comment
This was a really enjoyable session shot just north of Helsinki in a very historic area. The white gazebo dates to 1929 and overlooks a large lake. Surprisingly, this is just a few miles away from Helsinki International Airport.
We also stopped by a village area at the head of the lake – most of the buildings dated to the 1800s.
And a blend – from a little storage shed behind a government-owned artist retreat. There was a loud rock band playing inside the building and planes flying overhead as I took this picture. It was quite loud and distracting – despite appearing so quiet and serene.
