Tiina Puputti

photography trainer, photographer, non-fiction writer

 

Hi, I’m a Helsinki-based photography trainer, photographer, and non-fiction writer who’s happy to pack her backpack and explore new things and meet new people!

Within photography, light and lighting are my true passion. One of the most important things in a photograph is the asserted presence of light. I love to create different kinds of light or modify available ones if needed. And share my passion with others.

I love to work with people. Whether it is a portrait, editorial, commercial, documentary, or workshop it’s about cooperation. Where we are a team who have the same goal to achieve.

I’ve almost 20 years of experience in photography training teaching professionals, semi-professionals, and amateurs. During that time I spent 6 years in the most prestigious photography school in Finland; first teaching and later leading the school as the principal.

Since 2008 I’ve been an independent photography trainer. On top of teaching, I do editorial images.

Get inspired, find your enthusiasm, and express yourself, these are my mottos.
