Rally Finland 2018 was held in very hot conditions. Temperatures were almost +30 degrees all the weekend. I had time to go to seven special stages.

Ceremony And Portraits

-13 °C of frost. Seaside. Wind. What a combination for wedding portrait session. I feel comfortable with my jacket, but young couple wasn’t so lucky with their thin clothes. We managed to get shots quickly and then drove to Keminmaa to a small shingle church. Wedding ceremony was held there and it was pretty challenging place for photographer. There weren’t much light and light was different in every corner.

There was again great weather during rally Finland weekend except short showers on Friday. Finn drivers hasn’t had such a great success lately than before but now our drivers were taking top 4. Photos about 8 special stages and the podium ceremony.

Portraits on location

Kristiina and Sampo got themselves end of the autumn and it was a bit challenging. I had a plan to shoot portraits in Kempele in Vihiluoto harbour. Weather was pretty cold, just couple of degrees above zero. I had enough warm clothes so it wasn’t a big problem to the photographer. But Kristiina and Sampo hadn’t so thick clothes and I think they didn’t feel so warm.

Ceremony And Portraits

Wedding day in July so weather is to be expected nice and warm. But when Johanna and Jani were aimed to get married it wasn’t so warm and it was rainy also. Luckily rain showers were gone just before wedding ceremony which was held in Lumijoki church. Church is very big and beautiful place. It was my first attempt to try a drone as part of wedding photography.
