Gerda Koort Photography

Gerda Koort is a Mellunkylä-based wedding photographer specialising in wedding photography and engagement photos. Gerda approaches weddings as a storyteller: her aim is not only to create beautiful compositions but to record the real, fleeting emotions and natural interactions that make your day uniquely yours. Stylistically, Gerda emphasises documentary authenticity and sensitivity. She strives to be present yet unobtrusive — a partner who notices a small expression, a hand’s touch, or a burst of laughter without turning the atmosphere into a posed shoot. This approach suits couples who value an honest narrative of their wedding and want images that will carry memories forward for decades. How does Gerda work? Before the wedding she invests time in getting to know you: discussing your wishes, the day’s schedule and the most important moments so the photography supports your plans. An engagement session or a pre-wedding meeting helps build familiarity and eases into either an hour-long or full-day coverage. On the wedding day Gerda keeps the mood calm and natural, gently guiding intimate and beautiful portraits when needed — always avoiding anything that feels staged. Gerda understands that wedding photography is more than technical skill — it is about trust. Her strengths include sensitivity in front of people, an eye for detail and the ability to craft a visual story that conveys the day’s atmosphere. Many couples mention Gerda’s presence and calm manner as the reason they were able to enjoy the day fully. Although specialised in wedding photography, Gerda also offers portrait and engagement photography that complement your wedding story. If you are looking for a Mellunkylä wedding photographer who documents your day with a warm, authentic style and values personal collaboration, Gerda Koort would be honoured to create lasting images of your celebration.
