Born in Finland into a family of artists, it was clear since age two that she had strong calling to express herself through clothing and fashion, always picking outfits for herself and her brothers and cousins.

"All my life I wanted to be a photographer and work outdoors. I’ve driven 320,000 miles shooting for industrial and architecture clients throughout the US and covered over 2500 square miles on helicopter assignments and managed half-million dollar budgets. And proudly, I painstakingly hunted down and photographed the elusive 020 Pavilion for a personal project, which won an AIA LA Architectural Photography Award.  

Recent projects include shooting an underground storage facility in Kansas City, documenting a start-up in Los Angeles working with brands like H&M to recycle used clothing, shooting the next generation of hydrogen transportation and working alongside an emmy-award winning team shooting for Blackstone's commercial real estate powerhouse Link Logistics.  

My work takes me to challenging environments that allow me to learn everyday and push my creative skills towards that next thing."

Driven by a strong curiosity for people and cultures, Thomas loves to travel the world with a camera and has never lost his passion for film photography.

"Awe is an experience I seek to share and showcase in each frame, in every set up, and for all projects. Awe is transforming, a rewiring of consciousness, the perfect vice for well being."
