Valokuvaaja Lasse Lehto

I photograph people because I love it. For me, portrait photography is a way to tell a person’s story in a single frame: personality, expression and a small moment that lives on. I work in Oulu and at my studio in Oulunsalo I create portrait and headshot sessions that prioritise genuine expression, a relaxed atmosphere and timeless results. I’m a warm, passionate photographer with more than ten years’ experience in various forms of portrait photography. My background in wedding and family photography has taught me to notice natural emotions and small details — a skill that shows in my portraits as well. I aim to make my subjects feel comfortable and natural, because the best images often appear in moments where direction is light and the mood is friendly. My studio offers a versatile selection of backdrops, soft supplementary lighting and a dressing/makeup room so the session runs smoothly and comfortably. I provide both classic portrait photography and professional corporate headshots — for example staff photos and LinkedIn images that communicate competence and reliability. Each shoot is tailored to the client’s needs and intended use: whether you want a formal corporate portrait, a relaxed personal headshot or something in between, we will design the approach together. My editing style is lively yet timeless; I balance colours and tones to preserve the image’s mood while ensuring it remains enduring. I guide posing in a practical, encouraging way so your expressions reflect authenticity and confidence. Clients also appreciate a fast, transparent service — I promise clear communication from booking to final delivery. Choosing me as your portrait photographer in Oulu means receiving vibrant, timeless and people-focused images suitable for both personal and professional use.
