Summer dress

Spring is coming! The cutest dress, made by my mum. Our Sunday fun with Enja (who I had to bribe to be my model for 5 minutes :) ).

Turning one :)

One-year-olds are so cute :). When I arrived he was already peaking through the window with a smile on his face :).

It's getting lighter and with the amount of snow we have now it nicely reflects some light indoors as well. I took out my 50mm f1.4 and shot wide open, with a little help of a flash. I think I've said this before but with children I just love the little bit of a dreamy look it gives.

Back in Finland :)

Back in Finland :). The wintery white -8 degree Helsinki :). But I still have these sunny photos to share from Portugal. I will miss that beautiful light and nice people! This is my Enja again, enjoying the sun and running through the pear trees in Amoreira.

Christmas is coming :) I Lapsikuvaaja Helsinki

Christmas is coming :). It was nice to meet these boys again this year! What we needed was a Christmas card photo and portraits of a one-year-old. The shoes are mummy's first shoes when she took her first steps and this little one will probably take his first ones very very soon :).

I'm getting excited myself about Christmas - since I'm going to see the Portuguese one this year :). We have been pretty bad with celebrating 'Finnish' Christmasses - about 8 years in New Zealand and Australia all together and it never felt like Christmas to me. Hot summer weather and bbq for Christmas dinner. Last year I think we were in London on the way to Malta. This year in Portugal :).

I still have free session times for November and December to the middle of January I'm away. Back to work again from the 15th of January.
