Venla and Frida ~ Family Photography, Oulu
A few weeks ago I met up with Venla, Frida and their lovely Mummy to have an evening photoshoot near the river. We had sunshine, bubbles and so many smiles.

Black and white challenge
This last week a friend nominated me to take part in one of those online 'challenges' through Facebook. This time it was a 7 day black and white photo challenge.

Hailuoto for Midsummer
