I photographed this wedding back in 2014 (!). While I like to hold on to my old work to be able to see how I grow over the years, I encourage your to check out my more recent work, here.

I started 2015 season with documenting the wedding of Jaakko‘s younger brother, Pietari, and his gorgeous girl, Milla. Not much green in Helsinki in April just yet, but we found the perfect locations for their portraits. I felt so very blessed to be part of their day.

The ceremony took place at Helsinki Cathedral (Helsingin Tuomiokirkko), and it was actually the first time for me to cover a wedding there. It is a challenging church from my view (in comparison to so many other churches in Finland which are more generous with composition opportunities). But I’m quite pleased with the result. The service was beautiful. The ceremony ended with communion for all who were present.

Milla writes about their day:
“The wedding day was just awesome. Our favorite part was the ceremony in the church. When I was walking down the aisle I thought that ”Man, this is the best moment of my whole life!!!”

It was a great decision to advice the guests to turn off their phones and cameras. Everyone was so present. Marked seating rows worked as well! We’re happy that it was a mass and our best friends performed a cover of our favorite song :)  It was FUN to have the limo and the limo group with us during the drive.

It was cold outside when taking the photos, but we handled it. “
