  • You are so powerful.⠀ Take a moment today and LISTEN to yourself.⠀ ✨⠀ Put away your phone.⠀ Turn off the sound.⠀ No music, no tv.⠀ Just you.⠀ ✨⠀ Ask yourself a question about something that you’ve been wondering about. You’ll hear the answer, you may even feel it. Your body already knows the answer that you might not want to hear.⠀ ✨⠀ Give yourself a chance to show itself. You’ll be surprised by the peace you feel.⠀ ✨ #elämäonihanaa #myhelsinki #totuudentorvi #sitaatit #inspiroiva #happylife
  • FOR ALL THE NEW FOLLOWERS:⠀ First of all welcome, glad you’re here! Secondly, I like to converse with all of you amazing people so make sure you comment and/or send a DM if there’s something you’d like to say!⠀ 🍂⠀ My name is Erika and I’m the owner, photographer and LCF Life Coach at Studio Metsä where I specialize in photographing women (and men!) who don’t believe they’re photogenic (you’d be surprised by how many people identify with this).⠀ 🍂⠀ In general my mission in life is to bring as much authenticity and joy into this world as possible.⠀ 🍂⠀ I love tea and even the sound that hot water makes when you pour it into a cup. I’m a fan of @amyschumer and especially her movie @ifeelpretty / If you haven’t seen it, YOU NEED TO!⠀ 🍂⠀ Also, perhaps due to my Finnish roots, I’m a huge fan of contradicting elements: light and dark, joy and sorrow, summer and winter, deep conversations and fun moments. I love extremes because they force you to act (which is what I sometimes need because I have a tendency of getting stuck in my head...), but also because I just like to have it all! 🤪 ⠀ 🍂⠀ Last, but definitely not least, my clients are the best. They’re the most soulful, hearty, friendly, feeling and thinking, just the most amazing human beings on this planet. I try my best to share their stories on here as well but my blog is the best place to find them!⠀ 🍂⠀ So thanks for following along! Please keep me informed with any wishes you have for this account and I’ll do my best to comply. After all, I do this for you.⠀ 🍂⠀ Remember, you decide how you want to live your life: with the words of Nelson Mandela, may your choices reflect your HOPES, not your fears. ⠀ Thank you and Happy Monday! #myhelsinki #elämäonihanaa #maanantai #olekukaolet #oletparas
  • Beauty is only powerful if it truly makes us feel something. Sometimes we can get so over saturated with it that we become numb to it.⠀ ✨⠀ But I believe we only become numb when we don’t connect to it on a deeper level. Because at its best, beauty makes us FEEL. It gives us a sense of happiness, of joy, of excitement, of contentment, of belonging.⠀ ✨⠀ So when I have a photo reveal with a client, I aim to have it in a place that feels good energetically and aesthetically. Because while the focus is on the photographs, the energy of the place has power over our emotions.⠀ ✨⠀ In other words, beauty matters BUT beauty is always also in the eye of the beholder. We can choose to see beauty everywhere, we can choose to see beauty in ourselves and not limit it to mean one specific thing.⠀ ✨⠀ We are visual beings and are meant to be appreciating beauty - so appreciate yourself, appreciate your surroundings and your loved ones. The world is filled with beauty!⠀ ✨⠀ #beautyiseverywhere #kauneusonkatsojansilmissä #helsinki #roasberg
  • It's such a cliché I know but my mornings wouldn't be complete without some quiet time and TEA.⠀ 🍂⠀ My goodness, how I love tea. I know there are some heavy coffee drinkers out there and you don't have to understand my enthusiasm about tea BUT I know we can find some common ground for how these hot beverages make us feel. Talk about a "natural" high! 🤪⠀ 🍂⠀ Also, this post is somewhat useless. Seriously. All it does is offer you a chance to see a somewhat realistic shot of my kitchen (and by the way, check out that bus in the window! Talk about REALITY CHECK [it isn't as quiet as it may seem from the photo!]), where I of course always sit in this position just staring blankly out the window.⠀ 🍂⠀ OK, I WOULD, but the table is further out so I'm kind of forced to look through the window from a lot less of a photogenic location 😅 Maybe one day I'll reveal that to you as well! But for now, I wish you a morning full of nice and quiet time, time spent in a way that really energizes you and gives you a fantastic start to your day!⠀ 🍂⠀ Also, I'm a woman, so I can post whatever I want, however I want and whenever I want. Am I right ladies?! Okay men, you're also allowed to. We're all allowed to! FREEDOM!⠀ 🍂⠀ (Can you tell I've had some caffeine this morning!?)⠀ 🍂⠀ 😜⠀ Ok, I'm out. Happy Thursday!⠀ 🍂⠀ #cantlivewithouttea #mornings #aamut #elämäonihanaa #myhelsinki #huumorillahöystetty #nämähetket
  • Have you ever seriously thought that you have the power to make even your wildest dream come true? ✨ I think too often we find comfort in telling ourselves we can’t do something or that something is impossible, in other words playing it small. There’s a certain comfort in staying in the dark, not showing up, not letting people see the real you. ✨ But the prize you get for showing up, for being vulnerable and daring, is even more gigantic than you can ever imagine. The more afraid you are, the bigger the reward. ✨ Everything worth living truly is on the other side of fear. What makes it easier to face your fears are other people, people you know will be there to support you all the way. We aren’t meant to be struggling on our own, we have people around us for a reason. ✨ Dare to imagine the “impossible”. Dare to dream. Dare to imagine a different future for yourself. And then dare to go after it! Ideas are great but on their own they’re useless. Start, now, today, right away. ✨ You’ve got the power. For realz. 💪🏻 ✨ (Repost from @themateuszm) #sitaatit #pelkojenvoittaminen #elämäonihanaa #syksytulee #helsinki #unelmat
  • Pienikin välittämisen osoitus voi muuttaa toisen elämän suunnan. ✨ Kerro mulle kommenteissa mitä sulle kuuluu. Jos ei muuta niin laita edes emoji 💛 ✨ #mitäkuuluu @mielenterveys
  • This is my friend Theresa.⠀ ✨⠀ She was born one day before me and together we are embarking on a new year of our lives this November.⠀ ✨⠀ We are going to be 35 years old. That’s right. 35. Three-five. No longer girls, but now real, adult women.⠀ ✨⠀ What does it mean to be a woman? How does it feel? What does it look like?⠀ ✨⠀ These are questions I’m going to be asking from women everywhere - both online and offline. What’s your take on it? What makes you feel like a woman?⠀ ✨⠀ Comment below or share your own photo and tag it #womanhoodtoday. I’ll be sharing your photos and stories in my feed and/or stories!
  • Good morning! It’s the second day of the business expo in Helsinki. I was so impressed by it yesterday that I have to go back for more!⠀ ✨⠀ Ever since I was a teenager I’ve loved photobooths. It’s actually been somewhat of an obsession to me. But nowadays when everything is digital, the feeling is different (but come on who wouldn’t still love them?!). ⠀ ✨⠀ The first time I visited Berlin, I went into every single photobooth I saw because they’re still analogue! But not only that they also have (at least) one booth that prints out HORIZONTAL strips!! How cool is that?!⠀ ✨⠀ Anyway, this is from a photobooth yesterday at the business expo. I have a chance of winning the booth for an event so you bet your bottom dollar that I want it!⠀ 💪🏻⠀ #valokuvauskoppi #yritys2018 #messukeskus
