Joka Photo

Pregnancy is a time of changing feelings and shapes — maternity photography is a way to preserve these moments as a beautiful keepsake. At Joka Photo, I, Jonna Kaasalainen, specialize in maternity and approach pregnancy photography with a soft, documentary style that highlights genuine tenderness. I have photographed for over 10 years, and my own experience of motherhood helps me understand the warmth, anticipation and strength you want your images to convey. My working method focuses on respectful, attentive interaction: I want the session to feel relaxed, unhurried and free from performance pressure. I gently guide poses and expressions while leaving room for spontaneous emotion — the result is a mix of carefully composed portraits and natural, intimate moments. In maternity sessions I especially aim to emphasize the shape of the belly, physical connection and the story of your pregnancy in a way that feels authentically you. I photograph in Oulu and the surrounding areas, bringing experience and warmth to every session. My maternity work emphasizes natural light, timeless tones and atmospheric editing — my goal is that your images will look beautiful today and still feel meaningful years from now. The process from planning to photo gallery selection is clear and calm: we discuss your wishes, create the right mood and choose the best images together for prints, albums or digital use. Choose Joka Photo if you want maternity images that feel genuinely yours — made with expertise, warmth and without stiffness. I collaborate closely with clients so the final collection tells the story of your unique pregnancy. Feel free to get in touch, and we will plan a maternity session in Oulu that suits you perfectly.
