Tommi AittalaPhotographer & Videographer
Tommi Aittala

Editorial, commercial and portrait photography, and video, for magazines, brands and people. Based in Berlin and working across Europe.

Finnish photographer and videographer based in Berlin. My work spans press, editorial and commercial photography, with a particular focus on people, culture and daily life in Germany. I have contributed to Helsingin Sanomat as a stringer since 2020, covering politics, culture and current events in Germany for Finland's largest national newspaper.

My photographs have appeared in VOGUE Germany, Architectural Digest Germany, Berliner Zeitung, BILD, Journalistilehti, Kodin Kuvalehti, Antiikki & Design, Koti ja Keittiö, and other European publications.

Before going fully freelance, I worked as a product photographer and retoucher at Zalando and Carhartt Work in Progress in Berlin. I am also the co-founder of Der Feine Herr, an online magazine dedicated to bespoke menswear. I studied photography in Finland and hold a degree in Contemporary Photographic Arts from the University for the Creative Arts, UK.
