Hi, I’m Teemu!

I'm a photographer and retoucher based in Amsterdam. Growing up in nature-rich Finland, I developed a deep appreciation for natural light, which I now bring into my portrait, editorial, lifestyle, and travel photography. I love documenting fleeting everyday moments on my Instagram stories; random patches of light on an afternoon walk, a plant or city scenes.

I mostly shoot outdoors with natural light but also work in studio settings with artificial light. As also professional pianist and composer, I love photographing artists and creators and creating visual stories that reflect their unique style and message.

Outside of work you can find me sweating in a sauna, cooking plant-based meals and staying active by walking or cycling along the canals of Amsterdam.

Feel free to reach out via email or the contact form below—I’d love to connect!
