How boring would it be if we didn’t learn something new every day.

Let’s pronounce it ‘v-lay’.

I am a professional photographer and video maker from Helsinki, Ireland.

That’s not really a place, but I have spent my life skipping between Ireland and Finland. It’s one big country to me now, which I have come to love.

Creating visual stories is my strength. Photography, videography and motion graphics are my tools. From complex studio shoots, to hiking in the Himalayas, or hunting pirates in Africa, I appreciate my environment to help create the most striking narrative possible.

Two practices are crucial to my work: I listen, it’s imperative to fully understand my client’s needs. This allows me to read between the lines and deliver beyond expectations. Elevating a project from adequate to amazing makes it worthwhile. I am also a strong believer in always growing and learning plays a huge part in this. It’s what keeps me fascinated in my work!
