“By the way, being the first at work is a mortal sin! So be late and keep those clicks going. You only live once, so follow your heart. On your deathbed, you’re not going to think about your days at work but about the things that work stopped you from doing.” - Wise words from my brother-in-law, Thomas, who first revealed the secrets of the sunny 16 rule to me.
My love for photography began around the age of 10 during my first trip abroad to Lake Garda in Italy. I went with my Mum and her painter friend Lii, who was a fascinating person in so many ways. Since then, I’ve refined my craft alongside professional photographers and spent endless lonely hours hunting for those decisive moments.
Originally from Finland, I’ve lived a bit here and there including France, Italy, Belgium, New Zealand, and Luxembourg. Each place I've called home has left its mark, helping me grow an open and curious mindset. One of my proudest milestones was hosting an Industrial Photography Exhibition in 2013 at the European Commission’s Art Atrium in Brussels.
