I had the greatest pleasure to photograph this beautiful mamma and her family. In spite of the indisposition of both parents (both have leg pain – one from the 38th week and the other from a Harley Davidson gently falling on his knee), the whole family was great and going for any idea I had … and showering me with many of their own. It’s very difficult to decide, which images to include in your sneak peek. There are so many great ones. Thank you for the opportunity to document such an important moment of your life. It was fun and we must do it again when the little one is born. Hold it for after my holidays, lady! :)

We enjoy our little trips to Suomenlinna! My kids love travelling there (so exciting – bus, train, boat!), we love walking around the island, I really like the island and its buildings and we always find something new and interesting there, no matter how many times we visit. Once in January we saw as ice billows on the sea just like waves, how intriguing. Another time we found the toy museum (lelu museo). Sure the sign has always been there, but it took us some years to visit it. Also we found a back door to the summer theatre, right at the end of the play, so coming actors were amusing my little ones with short pantomimes. Admittedly, my boy was a bit scared …

But look what we found during our last visit – this beautiful young lady. We agreed to meet up for some picture taking and where else would we photograph than on Suomenlinna again. And not only was this missy beautiful but also kind and funny. I had a great time with you, thank you for the lovely early evening!
