Joka Photo

Joka Photo is a wedding photography studio based in Oulu, led by photographer Jonna Kaasalainen. Wedding photography is Jonna’s core expertise: she approaches the big day with a documentary eye and aims above all to capture genuine, in-the-moment images. Her way of working is grounded in respect, calmness and creating a relaxed atmosphere—so performance pressure fades and emotions can come through naturally. Why choose Joka Photo for your wedding photography? Jonna has over ten years of experience photographing private clients, and she combines a documentary storytelling approach with strong portrait skills. That means she captures both natural candid scenes and beautiful, carefully composed wedding portraits—without stiff directions or posing. Every couple and event is treated as a unique, valued occasion; Jonna listens to your wishes and creates a photography experience where emotion and story are central. My working style is warm and unhurried. I don’t try to stage every moment; instead I follow the flow of events and look for touching details—glances, laughter, small gestures. At the same time I make sure the important moments and portrait images are captured with careful, professional attention. I also offer engagement photography, which complements your wedding story well—these sessions provide a relaxed foundation for natural wedding portraits and help couples feel comfortable in front of the camera before the big day. I operate mainly in Oulu and the surrounding region, but I’m happy to travel by arrangement. My hope is that the photo session becomes a pleasant and meaningful experience for you—resulting in authentic, timeless images you’ll enjoy for years to come. Get in touch with Joka Photo and we’ll plan the best way to capture the story of your wedding day.
