Hygge photography

Hygge Photography is a family photographer based in Mikkeli, specializing in maternity, newborn and family photography. My work centers on a calm, warm atmosphere — together we look for the real moments that tell your family’s story. Why choose me for your family photography in Mikkeli? My approach is gentle and flexible: I’ll guide you when needed but also leave room for spontaneity. I enjoy working in your home environment, outdoors, and in familiar places where children feel secure. I consider it important that the session is relaxed and fun for kids — that’s when genuine expressions, small touches and memorable moments naturally emerge. I focus on documenting everyday family life and special occasions: the first weeks with a newborn, playful children, tender moments in parents’ arms, and comprehensive coverage of christenings or family celebrations. I photograph in a touching, unobtrusive way so the images feel natural rather than staged. After the session I carefully edit the photos to ensure the light, colors and emotions are conveyed in the best possible way. How do I work with you? We always start with a conversation — I listen to your wishes, scout locations if needed and propose a schedule that suits your family. On the day of the shoot I keep the atmosphere light and gently direct moments so parents and children can be themselves. I aim to capture a mix of natural documentary images and considered portrait-style shots so your album is varied and complete. I’m motivated by creating images you’ll return to year after year — photos that bring back memories and feelings. If you’re looking for a family photographer in Mikkeli who values a warm atmosphere, a child-friendly approach and authentic moments, Hygge Photography would love to create your family’s photo series. Get in touch and we’ll plan a time that works for you.
