Portrait photographer Aleksandra Lemke in Viikki creates authentic, sculptural portraits and professional personal images. Her work emphasizes emotion, identity and a distinct individual aesthetic.
Aleksandra Lemke is a portrait photographer based in Viikki who specializes in portrait and personal photography. Her work is recognised by its authentic, slightly raw aesthetic and sculptural compositions — a style that arises where classical fine-art traditions meet contemporary photographic practice. Aleksandra’s starting point is always the person: her aim is not to idealise but to find a harmonious way to present what each model carries within. Her work shows a deep interest in identity, diversity and empowering marginalised voices — themes that run through both her commissioned work and personal projects. During shoots she gives gentle direction and seeks sculptural poses, movement and feeling so that the images feel both familiar and timeless. The process centres on collaboration and trust. Before a shoot she discusses wishes and the intended purpose of the images — whether the goal is to emphasise personality, create a striking fashion-style portrait, or produce a restrained, professional headshot for a work profile. On set she strives to keep the atmosphere calm and encouraging; directions are clear yet sensitive so that even a shy subject can find a natural expression. Quality is central to the services: careful composition, considered lighting and visual intent combine in each image. Aleksandra’s aesthetic suits clients who are looking for portrait photography or personal portraits underpinned by a clear vision and narrative. While portrait work is the primary focus, she draws inspiration from the visual language of fashion to bring a fresh, artistic edge. Choose Aleksandra if you want a portrait that goes beyond surface and seeks depth, feeling and individuality. Sessions in Viikki, together with her international experience, guarantee a calm, professional and creative process in which the image is created collaboratively and meaning is prioritised. Whether for personal, editorial or professional use, Aleksandra aims to produce portraits that are thoughtful, strong and enduring.
