Please keep reading, if you are ready to make a change in the way you are navigating and seeing your own work. During my mentoring, we’ll focus on what matters most to you at this time. We’ll talk techniques, client guidance, business and how to find your own style without getting lost in trends.
For photographers who are ready to step into their purpose
With me, you'll learn from one of the leading birth photographers in Finland (oof, sounds weird but it's true.) I have photographed c-sections, home births as well as hospital births. My biggest wish is, that everyone interested in being a birth professional would learn from a seasoned birth photographer. Birth should not be rushed, they are a sacred space that needs knowledge and preparing.
I hold space for new birth photographers by 1:1 mentoring, group workshops and teaching online about birth photography. I simply love to speak and show the beauty of births to the world. I hope you'll send me a message, if my work speaks to you and you are interested in being a birth professional.
The process usually starts with an inquiry, after which we'll book a call to see if we are match (this is important, since 1:1 mentoring is very intimate.) Below you will find my mentoring prices and packages.

We’ll plan your mentoring together based on what you need and how you like to learn.
Below are few examples to give you an idea of pricing and scope.
Mentoring that fits you
Have you ever found yourself scrolling social media and just simply being amazed by birth photos? Or perhaps you have thought of photograph births but don't know where to start?
As a pioneer in this field, I have built my services, pricing and workflows directly alongside my clients. In my group mentorings, I teach you everything I have learned in the past 5 years.
My next birth photography workshop takes place in spring 2026. This workshop is a deep dive to birth photography in Finland and created to help photographers step into birth with confidence. During this workshop, you will learn about contracts, pricing, hospital permits and techniques. A midwife will join us to talk about birth hormones and you will have the opportunity to ask anything you like.
After the workshop you will feel excited to welcome your first clients and confident to take birth photography to your service. My group workshops are always kept small and personal so there’s room for everyone to talk and ask questions. We focus on practical, honest learning of why, what and how.

"Pinja is by far the best photographer I've ever worked with! I've booked two brand shoots with her and both were such a lovely experience. Pinja is easy to work with, instructions are clear and the photos have a confident and light atmosphere. I highly recommend her!"
