Piirto Photography

I am Sirpa Mikkonen / Piirto Photography — a portrait photographer based in Savonlinna, passionate about capturing people's authenticity and personality. My strength lies in interpreting emotions and expressions: I aim for each portrait to tell a small story about the person photographed, not just show an external expression. For me, portrait photography is more than mastering shapes and light — it is an encounter. I focus especially on portrait photography and professional profile photos (CV and LinkedIn). I create the shoot experience calmly and warmly: we always start with a conversation about your wishes and goals, plan the setting (studio or natural environment) and prepare the session together so you feel genuinely yourself in front of the camera. Clients often tell me the shoot feels relaxed and encouraging — a setting where even a shy personality has room to shine. My style emphasizes timelessness and natural beauty. I use soft light rendering and considered compositions so the images work well both for personal use and professional contexts. Profile photos are composed and finished specifically to perform well online — cropped and optimized for small profile sizes as well as for printed materials. The workflow is clear: consultation and planning before the shoot day, a calm atmosphere during the session, and delivery of images via a password-protected online gallery for easy selection and download. I also aim to deliver high-quality, retouched files that make it simple to continue building your visual identity. Choose Piirto Photography if you are looking for a portrait photographer who values authenticity, presence and the client’s story. I operate mainly in Savonlinna and the surrounding region — get in touch and we’ll design a portrait experience tailored to you, leaving behind beautiful depictions of your life and character.
