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.

Slush11 I Photographer Helsinki

A completely new world to me -- but an interesting 2 days at Kaapelitehdas at Slush Helsinki with Pedro & Jyri. Probably didn't understand half of what anyone was saying but still enjoyed it :). And good food and wine (Portuguese :) ). Here's a few photos from there.

And don't forget 3x11 - happens next week! The website is www.silo.is/coming and www.facebook.com/silo.is.
