i am Saara Vuola, a Finnish photographer and filmmaker based in Italy & Helsinki.

i grew up in Switzerland and Finland. after studying Italian language at Helsinki University i have now moved to Italy to live in a small village near Rome. i live primarily in Italy, but spend a few good summer (read: wedding) months every year in Helsinki, where my family lives and where i own a ceramics studio called 
Studio Savilla.


i started documenting weddings 4-5 years ago and immediately fell in love with the possibilities a wedding offers to photography. wedding photography is often overlooked or thought about in a limited way – i want to expand those thoughts and prove its possibilities and artistic worth.

when i am not at weddings, i am photographing for small businesses, families and fellow artists. or i am making films as a cinematographer or director. i'm always happy to collaborate with kind and fun creatives on film projects.


i'm most drawn towards authencity and anything that's a little bit outside of the box. i've been immersed in many environments as i've grown up and lived in different countries. when you've seen a lot of different kinds of lives, there is little judgement left; i've been welcomed with open arms by so incredibly many that i simply can't hold a cynic heart. in my work i value artistic ambition and creating real trust and genuine relationships + unforgettable memories with my clients and collaborators.
