SIMO VÄISÄNEN
be inspired
I'm a Finland based self-taught photographer. As a photographer I am mostly interested in people, places and details. My love for old Finnish black and white movies, Italian neorealism and Akira Kurosawa's and Sergei Eisenstein's production partly explain why I photograph as I do. And if you don't understand Daido Moriyama or Junichiro Tanizaki you don't know me. I'm a dad with a wife and one lovely daughter. I was born and raised in Finland. Despite my travels I could give you 100 reasons why Finland is 'The Most Kick-Ass-Country' in the world.
