“You don’t take a photo, the photo gives itself to you.”
~ Pentti Sammallahti
Whenever I come across a Pentti photograph, there’s a sense of discovery. A subtle detail comes into view that I hadn’t noticed before. His images unfold like visual haikus. They are gentle, poetic, and full of meaning. Through them, you feel his warmth, his deep love for the world, and his joy in what he does.
