Arto Arvilahti is a Turku family photographer who captures authentic moments in studio or on location. He offers child, newborn, christening and family sessions with a relaxed, warm approach.
Family photography is at the heart of Arto Arvilahti’s work — he operates in Turku and his studio is located in Vähäheikkilä. With more than 10 years of professional photography experience, Arto focuses on creating images where a family’s authenticity and closeness shine through without forced posing. The core of his family photography is storytelling: moments, expressions and togetherness that become living images on your wall or treasured memories for generations. Arto’s working style is calm and warm. Sessions can be held in the studio, which offers different-toned backdrops and a safe, controlled environment (not subject to the weather), or in a preferred on-location setting around Turku — urban scenes, coastal landscapes or forest paths. For outdoor shoots he uses natural light and composes images that emphasize the atmosphere of the surroundings, and he knows how to use the character that different weather conditions can add to the photos. He has particular expertise in photographing children and newborns: newborn sessions are conducted in a quiet, professional environment with the baby’s safety always the top priority. Family sessions also include sibling portraits, first-birthday shoots and sensitive coverage of christenings or baptisms — all captured with tact and a natural feel. During the session Arto offers gentle direction and creates a relaxed atmosphere so even the smallest family members feel comfortable and safe. Clients are encouraged to bring favourite toys and outfits — small personal details help create meaningful, individual images. In the studio you may be photographed barefoot or with clean shoes, and Arto’s practical, down-to-earth approach ensures the whole family leaves the shoot with a pleasant experience. Although family photography is Arto’s main focus, he also has experience in portrait work and documentary-style event photography. He is especially known for his sensitivity, genuine approach and ability to turn everyday moments into significant photographs. If you’re searching in the Turku area for a family photographer who understands children’s worlds and will capture your family exactly as you are, Arto Arvilahti | KUVAKAS offers expert, relaxed and reliable service.
