Tuuli Nikki Photography

I’m Tuuli Nikki, a portrait photographer based in Oulu — I specialize in expressive, authentic portraits that show you at your best. For me, portrait photography is a way to tell a person’s story through images: I aim for naturalness, style and a subtle touch of my own vision. During shoots I focus on a relaxed atmosphere and clear, efficient posing guidance so that even clients who feel camera‑shy can enjoy the moment and receive natural-looking images. My style often uses natural light and on-location settings — in environmental portraits we build a backdrop together that supports the subject’s personality. If you need a more controlled studio look or corporate profile photos for LinkedIn and websites, I adapt the lighting and composition to match the intended use. Because a portrait is both a visual and communicative tool, I always plan the session together with the client: we choose the location, wardrobe and any props so that the final images serve their purpose. How do I work? We usually start with a short planning meeting where we go over your wishes and I give tips on how to prepare. On the shoot day I create a relaxed, encouraging atmosphere — I chat, give clear direction and keep the process straightforward so the results feel genuine. After the session I deliver proof images in a password‑protected web gallery where you select the photos to be edited. Final images are delivered retouched as full‑resolution files, ready for use online or in print. Working from Oulu, I know local photo locations and the best light across seasons — but I’m available to shoot elsewhere in Finland when needed. I choose an approach that suits each client: some prefer detailed preplanning, others trust the mood of the day. I adapt to both and always aim for the best possible result. Choose a portrait photographer who combines professional skill with a warm, lively touch — get images that last and tell your story.
