SUMMER
After two weeks of shootings for WWF, Aalto University, Herra Ylppö, My First Band and my own projects I just finished another two weeks photoshop maraton. Besides that I have just started a great co-operation with two Finnish designers. This co-operation has just started but it looks like it will turn into an exhibition in late 2014. (More about this soon…)
The next five weeks the Kingdom of Korea will be out of their royal office. It will be a perfect combination of holidays, meetings, and a lot of foot work at different events, parties and so on. There will even be a couple of photosessions but definitely not office work nor photoshop. Instead there will be a lot of long walks, sunshine, parks, coffee in the night time and hanging out with my daughter. Our royal family will also travel to Sweden and Denmark to meet some of our colleagues and artists and to check the latest vibes from the Scandinavian art scene. Probably we are also going to meet all the other Scandinavian royal families. We can’t confirm that yet but at least we have sent golden faxes with diamond details to ask them to arrange a royal gathering where we can polish our armors side by side!
Cheers, Aki

YLPPÖ
Peki has shot tons of great photos for musician Herra Ylppö and his band Ihmiset. Their next album is titled Mies ja nainen and it will be published by Sony Music Finland. It’s definitely the best Herra Ylppö & Ihmiset album so far and for us it sounds like a dark and twisted version of Olavi Virta. This longing from the old traditional Finnish schlager music combined with a darken emptines can be found in Sinikoski’s photos for this album. The album is going to be published on January 18th 2012.
You can find the more picture’s on Korea’s first page. The picture above has been used in the album booklet. It has also been published as the cover of latest Soundi magazine.
Peki made also his first music video for Herra Ylppö together with maestro himself. Enjoy! Video is at the moment on #2 in Voice’s (Finnish Music Television) top10 chart so not too bad for the Peki’s first music video ever.
