ABOUT ME

Petri Wäänänen

Welcome to my photography portfolio! Based in Italy and Finland, I specialize in capturing moments that tell a story -whether it’s a person at work, a breathtaking landscape, an intriguing building, or the essence of an emotion. Sometimes, I find myself with my feet above the ground and my head in the clouds - or the reverse - depending on what the client envisions. In my free time, I embrace life’s simple pleasures: exploring nature, enjoying music, savoring good food, and riding my motorcycle. Join me on this journey to capture the beauty and essence of the world around us!

How It Was Done

“We took photos over several days and across different seasons, capturing the sea both day and night in all kinds of weather. I climbed aboard cargo ships and tankers on rope ladders, photographing alongside the pilots, living and eating with them. It was one of the most incredible experiences of my life.

I've always loved the sea.”
