Petri Mast Photography

Petri Mast is a Vihti-based portrait photographer who combines documentary sensitivity with visual precision to create authentic, timeless portraits. For him, portrait photography is more than posing: it’s a conversation, careful observation and giving space for a person’s character to emerge. The result is imagery where expressions, gestures and the quality of light tell more than words. Why choose Petri Mast for your portrait photography? His experience with photographing people shows in how quickly the shoot becomes a natural, trustworthy encounter. Petri gently leads the session with clear directions while also valuing spontaneity and those unrepeatable moments that cannot be staged. This approach suits both personal portrait work and corporate photography—such as LinkedIn headshots and staff images—where the goal is to convey an authentic, professional impression. My working method is practical and people-centered: we always start with a conversation about needs and objectives, plan the environment and mood, and create a shoot situation where the client can comfortably be themselves. Sessions can take place in your chosen setting—urban backdrops, natural surroundings or a restrained studio atmosphere—depending on what best supports the intended message. In corporate assignments I combine the intimacy of portraits with the brand’s visual line so the images work equally well in profiles and in communications materials. Petri Mast’s background includes awards and long-term work on documentary projects, which adds storytelling accuracy to his portrait work. That narrative perspective is visible in the portraits: they feel honest, calm and carefully considered—images you want to return to.
