I’m Aleksi, a creative professional, photographer, and filmmaker. I focus on clear ideas, solid craft, and working in a way that feels grounded and responsible. Every project gets the same attention, whether it’s something small or something that pushes me further. My aim is to create stories that feel true and meaningful.

My path started as a photojournalist for a music magazine, working with bands like The Hellacopters, The Flaming Sideburns, and Finntroll. After that, I co-founded a production company that made Finnish music videos many people still remember. The company grew into an advertising film studio, and we worked with international brands on a wide range of campaigns. After 17 years in production, I joined hasan&partners as a lead creative, spending eight years shaping ideas and building work that combined strategy with strong visual thinking.

In 2025, I returned fully to filmmaking and photography. It’s a shift back to hands-on work — developing ideas, directing, and shaping images myself. That’s the place where I work best: close to the process, building visuals with purpose.

Over the years, I’ve worked with clients across many fields. Tech companies like Nokia, OnePlus, and Microsoft. Sustainability-focused brands like Neste, UPM, and Stora Enso. And design-driven partners such as Made Thought. I’ve also collaborated with Finnish telecom brands like Elisa, DNA, and Telia, as well as well-known consumer brands like Fazer and Cloetta.
