about me
about me and my work

I'm Anni Virta, 26 years old finnish fine art photographer student from Turku Arts academy (start 2023 fall).
At year 2018 I graduated to photographer from Gradia Jyväskylä.
I started photographing when I was 9 years old, and it has been my passion since then. In age of 14 I knew this is something I want to do to with my life in a future, because I breathed through camera.
Art was then and is now my whole life.
I have had five photography art exhibitions for my own (2017, 2021, 2023, 2024 and 2025, directed one group art exhibition to young adults in Jyväskylä (2022) and had group art exhibition in 2024 spring at part of my studying.
I'm also a writer, and I'm writing a book alongside with my studying. I do lot of crafts, and I have a cat named Noppa. My favourite color is yellow.
My art work is mostly selfportraits, and one of my theme is mental health and awarness about it - I feel it important to talk about it more, and I use my own feelings in that work. I talk about it, because I can.
Other interest in photograph is portraits, and I do it mostly in my work. I photograph portraits mostly in nature, and it's my studio. I like lot of black and white, and I love document in my work feelings, and I use natural light. In my work I do most of portraits; graduate, family, and weddings.
