Miia + Iiro ~ Engagement photography, Oulu, Finland and Yorkshire

While I work through the photos from yesterday's sunny wedding, here are a few more shots from Miia and Iiro's romantic engagement shoot from earlier in the week for you to enjoy.

They were so natural with each other in front of the camera, I absolutely loved photographing them!


PREVIEW Miia + Iiro ~ Engagement photography, Oulu, Finland and Yorkshire

Last night I met up with Miia and Iiro whose wedding I'll be photographing on Saturday - exciting!! Miia is an old friend which always makes the responsibility of capturing their day even more special.

We walked around Ainola park in the evening sunlight taking some simply lovely photos of the pair of them in preparation for their wedding day.

Here's a little sneak peek into their engagement session.


Markka + Jukka ~ Engagement photography, Oulu, Finland and Yorkshire

Love is definitely in the air this week. Two engagement shoots and a wedding on Saturday, lucky lucky me! <3

Last night I met Markka and Jukka for their engagement session ready for their wedding at the start of September. It was lovely to finally meet them, and their adorable little boy, while we explored their wedding venue and took some photos.

Love is in the air

As the biggest day in the LOVE calendar is fast approaching, I thought I would celebrate with a fantastic offer for those of you who would like to surprise your partner with a photo shoot to remember.

Merika + Ilja ~ Engagement Shoot

Last Friday we braved the rain and thunder and headed to the rapids at Koitelinkoski ahead of Merika and Ilja's wedding at the gorgeous Turkansaari next weekend. Luckily for us the clouds parted and the sun shone down on them and their incredibly cute son, Aleksi, who came with us.

SNEAK PEEK - Merika + Ilja ~ Engagement Shoot

Sorry it's been quiet around here the last couple of days, but it's been a little hectic.

There is a blog post on the way but in the meantime I do have a sneak peek for you from last night's beautiful engagement session of Merika and Ilja whose wedding I'll be photographing next weekend.

More coming very soon!


Heidi + Erkko ~ Engagement Shoot

Earlier this week I met up with Heidi and Erkko at Ainola Park ahead of their wedding in a little over a week's time - so exciting! They also had their simply gorgeous daughter, Sofia, and incredibly cute dog, Tico, with them.

After a month of almost daily rain I was a little worried the weather might let us down but I needn't have worried. The weather was absolutely glorious.

A sneaky peek from this evening's lovely shoot in Ainola Park, with Heidi and Erkko.

More photos coming soon!


Merika + Ilja

I've been booked for my first wedding! I might be stupidly excited about this.

And so to help prepare I had a 'Save The Date' shoot with my couple, and lovely friends, Merika and Ilja.

Their wedding is next August, which I'm sure will be here before we know it, and before that exciting event another will be happening as they're expecting their first child in the new year.
