KIRSI + RIKU | August 2014

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. 

For us the most important thing when planning our wedding was to find the right venue. We wanted a place that was by the sea and which would have a history of its own. Not too formal but with class. We had few pumps in the road but luckily the place we finally chose turned out to be just perfect as did the weather in our wedding day. The warm august night and the atmosphere of the place felt just right. Of course there were little things that did not go as planned, but really who cares:)

Maria,

You have very delicate and subtle beauty in all of your photos and you really understand light. You  have the ability to tell the story without underlining obvious things and instead find a different perspective and way to capture the moment. This is why we chose you, and we could not be more happy with the outcome.

For me when we first met, it was a bit of a surprise how determined you were, as looking at your photos I expected someone fragile. Our friends actually called you “Pikku Myy” from the Muumit. But please take this as a biggest compliment, because we really appreciated your ideas and your help especially when the bride and the bridesmaids weren’t there to look over the things:)

The amount of photos was just wow! At first we wondered if it was even too much, but as one of my bridesmaids said even the portraits are telling the story, so each one of them is special.

We would like to thank you that you were there to capture our day. You have amazing talent and vision to see the beauty and the moments and apparently so does Rufus.
We wish all the best for you two and your growing family:) 

Kirsi and Riku
