Tommi Viitala

Helsinki based Tommi Viitala (born in 1975) has started active street photography over six years ago. However, the camera is not a new device for him because he has been filming more and less actively throughout his life, starting with film cameras from the 90s. Since the camera is almost always with Tommi, he also goes around the world filming streets, most recently in Paris, Rome and Madrid. In street photography, Tommi's signature style includes precise composition, sharp contrasts, moody atmosphere and symmetry. Of these, the contrasts are the most what Tommi chases every day on the streets. The sunnier the day, the more Tommi looks for shadows. Tommi's photos has been published also various street photography magazines and exhibitions all over the world. Tommi's work has also been published on many major Instagram pages, including Apple, Lightroom and Adobe Creative Community. In addition, his work has been acquired for the collections of the Swiss Museum of Avantgarde.
