About Mait

After an initial focus on composing and creating music for years, I have to thank my brother who became passionate about photography. It was the year of 2007. I never knew these moments will bring me such a great time photographing other people and their most important moments. I never expected to be as fortunate as I am, to get to wake up every morning and do what I love. It took over my life completely.

I learned to create images for my clients with a deeper meaning. Over the course of my career, I’ve had the pleasure of photographing some extremely inspiring couples all over the world and getting to know my clients have been the most interesting aspect of my work what helps me to create those images. A rather small client roster allows me to focus on the very diverse needs of my clients and allows me to manage all aspects of my clients’ work personally.

I strive to tell a natural, candid and elegant story of your big day.

Masterful images

Mait is known for helping her couples relax in front of the camera. His coverage is thorough and comprehensive, producing a full narrative of the day, including images of extended family, guests, party, and magazine-worthy award-winning portrait shots.

Frequently Asked Questions

QUESTION

Traveling?

ANSWER

The world is small, I can fly anywhere in the world within a day. My flights are all included in my collections so you do not have to worry about anything related to my travels.

QUESTION

Based in

ANSWER

Most of the time I'm based on an Estonian countryside by the lake with my little family of four. I can't imagine there is a better place for a home as we have. I can call Iceland my second home.

QUESTION

Booking your date

ANSWER

To book your date a signed contract and a deposit are required. I take a maximum of 20-25 weddings per year. I want to make sure that I have enough time to dedicate to you.

QUESTION

Getting the pictures

ANSWER

You will get a private link to your gallery and the slideshow. Most of my clients will go for our gorgeous albums as well. The number of pictures delivered is generally more than you can ever consume and hang on your walls but the quality is important over the quantity every time.

In some cases related to the season, images can take up to 12 weeks to get the pictures after your wedding date. For portrait sessions, you will receive 80/100 images edited and ready to print 3/4 weeks after the session maximum.
