Experienced wedding photographers from Kuopio — studio and on-location wedding portraits, ceremony and reception coverage, plus documentary capture of your wedding day, delivered with professional care.
KuvaMaija is a full-service photography studio operating near Kuopio, specializing in wedding photography. Our approach blends a documentary sensibility with a refined portrait style: we aim to record the genuine moments and emotions of your day while also creating beautiful, timeless portraits both in the studio and on location. Why choose KuvaMaija as your wedding photographer? Experience and local knowledge shine through every image. Owner and lead photographer Petri Summanen has worked in photography since 2005. KuvaMaija’s strength is the ability to keep a busy wedding day calm and natural while photographing it. We work professionally and discreetly — particularly during ceremonies and receptions we adopt a documentary approach so that later you’ll see the authentic moments that truly mattered. How do we work? We begin with a conversation about your wishes and the flow of the day: would you like to emphasize wedding portraits, comprehensive ceremony documentation, or atmospheric reception coverage? We agree on locations and a schedule, and on the day we create a relaxed atmosphere that allows for spontaneity. We offer both studio portraits and on-location shoots — often outdoor portraits provide depth and a natural feel to the images. Our services cover wedding portraits, ceremony photography, and reception coverage in varying packages. We can tailor the shoot to your needs — for example, portrait sessions combined with ceremony coverage, or a more extensive package that includes key reception moments. In post-production we invest in careful image editing and creative refinement so the final photos preserve the authenticity of the moments while appearing polished and cohesive. Above all, we aim to build a trusting relationship with our clients: we want you to feel like yourself in front of the camera. KuvaMaija’s wedding images become a lasting memory you’ll return to for years — from intimate glances to joyous dances.
