This was done in co-lab with art director Ossi Honkanen from Hasan & Partners to promote the Ipad version of the Helsingin Sanomat newspaper. The production was done by Producer Kirsi Pärni from Left & Right.

I shot this for St. Vacant shoes in 2009. The job was art directed by Luiz Risi. In 2010 mr Risi got swallowed by a great grey work monster in Holland and had to start working for Ikea pushing some 250+ TV spots a year. Rest in peace Luiz.

Directed by Nalle Sjöblad and acted by Osmo Puuperä, this was shot by me at Nalle’s summerhouse in Nagu, an island in the Turku archipelago. The summer of 2010.
This is a promising start for a great series of Rorschach ink stain photographs. It got shot down by an inner political issue from the clients side. I will do my best to make it fly again. Well see.

The Karhu log photo was shot in an empty parking lot in the Kirkkonummi forrest near Helsinki in January 2009. I drove out there in a rented van in the evening. It was -20 celsius. The image had been emergency-assigned around noon and the deadline was in the morning around 10 am. I built the floor out of boards and placed the beat-up sauna stove on the boards. When I was supposed to light the fire, I noticed that I had lost the matches. At 1:30 AM I returned to the set with matches and got a fire going. At 3 am I was back at the studio to shoot the hand and the log (They are combined from a separate image). At 6:30 am I was done Photoshopping and of to sleep on the studio couch.
