Valokuvaamo Rikkilä is a portrait photographer in Mikkeli. We provide professional portraits, passport and LinkedIn headshots in studio or natural settings — warm guidance for genuine expressions.
Valokuvaamo Rikkilä Ky specializes in portrait photography and serves the Mikkeli area as well as nearby Savitaipale. Our family-run studio combines professional skill with a personal, human-centered approach — we have been preserving local memories since 1948. As portrait photographers we concentrate on what makes each subject unique: expression, posture and the quality of light. Why choose us? Decades of experience and the studio’s strong tradition are visible in every image: we know how to frame, light and retouch photographs so the final result feels timeless and professional. Our expertise spans classic studio portraits and environmental portraits, where we use nearby natural backdrops to create a soft, authentic atmosphere. We deliver both digital files and high-quality printed images, and for passport photos we recommend booking an appointment to ensure the result meets official requirements. Our tailored portrait-photographer approach means you receive personal guidance and a calm, unhurried session. We gently direct posture and expression so that even a shy adult or a child can relax in front of the camera. For corporate and LinkedIn headshots we emphasise a trustworthy, professional appearance; for individual portraits we aim to capture genuine personality and mood. Studio conditions allow for carefully crafted lighting setups, while on-location shoots in nearby nature add a natural softness and context to the images. We work closely with clients throughout the process: before the session we discuss your wishes, agree on location and timing, and — if needed — advise on clothing, colors and facial expression choices. Our post-processing is precise and respects the subject’s authenticity: we enhance and refine but avoid creating unrealistic changes. In addition to portrait photography, we photograph related occasions such as graduation, confirmation and children’s portraits, and we offer framing and finishing services to present your images beautifully. Valokuvaamo Rikkilä blends traditional craftsmanship with modern professional photography. Book a portrait session and let us record the important look of you or your company in the Mikkeli region.
