We care about your image(s)!
Studio Svarte is your creative partner in photography and graphic design. We believe in the power of pictures–let´s make your images talk!
Our speciality is photographing people, products and processes. Our clients are mainly companies, institutions and advertising agencies. Websites, magazines, social media, press releases–these are the places where our photos mainly are published.
Why complicate when you can simplify?
The studio is run by photographer & designer Linda Svarfvar. When working with us you get an all-in-one design department. In addition to photography, visual design is the other leg we stand on. Bring us your design challenges–be it product, pattern or packaging design–and we will navigate the waters with you.
Our philosophy
We care about image, but not a forced one. When photographing people, we work to make people feel comfortable in front of the camera and to look like themselves in the final photos. We are mindful about composition and colour, and have a minimalistic approach when it comes to styling.
Places and spaces
We shoot in our studio as well as out and about–assignments outside the Turku area are welcome, too! Our spaces are located in the cultural art hub Taiteen talo / Art House Turku, where we share our studio and office with a group of other creative professionals.
What next?
Are you dreaming of impactful pictures on your website, images that tell your story to the world? How about fresh and up to date headshots of your staff? We are here to inspire and help you, so let´s have a chat! Call, text or send us an email–or fill out the form below and we will get back to you!
Let´s get creative!
