Photographer Jaakko Heikkilä has spent more than three decades documenting diverse communities in Finland and around the world, exploring themes of humanity, community, and light through his work.

Jaakko Heikkilä started at beginning of the 1990s as an interpreter of the distinctive culture of the Northern frontier region of Torne River Valley between Finland and Sweden. For about 30 years, he has met people from various cultures in their own communities and homes, and has photographed them to capture the essence of people, the humanity and the light.
