About me
Driven by Passion: My Journey from Civil Servant to Creative Entrepreneur
Nature has been part of my life since childhood—through berry picking, fishing, and hunting.
But I never really saw it as something especially beautiful. For me, nature was simply the backdrop for activities that helped me relax.
That changed completely seven years ago when I picked up my first DSLR camera. Suddenly, autumn colors, heavy snow-covered trees, and fresh green leaves took on a whole new meaning. I was filled with a powerful urge to capture all that beauty in photographs.
By the following January, I had already taken thousands of photos and immersed myself in both the theory and practice of photography. Soon, my gear was at a professional level—good enough to not only shoot landscapes but also weddings and commercial work.
Eventually, I began sharing my photos on social media, and Instagram especially became a turning point. As my visibility grew, companies started reaching out—and that led me to start my first business focused on producing marketing photos and videos.
Around the same time, I was fortunate to become a Panasonic Pro Collaborator, which opened the door to regular gear updates and deeper involvement in the field I had grown to love.
I started out working for several years as a part-time content creator while holding a full-time position as a teacher and principal at a small rural school. I genuinely enjoyed my work in education, but at the same time, I kept expanding my skill set—moving beyond social media into the world of digital marketing.
Authenticity is at the core of everything I do.
I strongly believe that modern marketing is too polished, too distant, and often hard to relate to. With just a few thoughtful elements, both photo and video content can become much more approachable—and more emotionally engaging. Marketing materials should be visually striking, yet also warm, relatable, and above all, real.
Sometimes, creating that authenticity means waiting patiently for the perfect natural light. But those special conditions not only elevate the image—they reward the creator in unexpected ways.
If you’re looking to bring your brand to life and tell a story colored by the stunning landscapes of the North, don’t hesitate to reach out.
After all, a million followers across my social media channels can’t all be wrong.
