European weightlifting Championships and Hobbies and leisure time exhibition.

23.4.2026

Well, I have been super busy these last few weeks, editing our national teams athlete interviews and keeping track of EWC media and communication for our national team. With my team mate in media of Finnish weightlifting federation we have been working hard for early announcements and competition reports from the competition. Euro's started 19.4 and will continue until 26.4. Competition venue is in Batumi Georgia this year. We have a historical chance to success this year, Janette Ylisoini could be up there in the platform, even as an European champion! That would be huge! Check out the Athletes interviews on Suomen Painonnostoliiton YouTube. Video below 👇 

In another news, here in our little county in Southern Ostrobothnia, we had Hobbies and leisure time exhibition on 18.4. I was there helping out the local weightlifting club Family Power ry and doing some media from the exhibition. This event went great for the weightlifting club, 750 person attend the exhibition and 40 of them stopped by our booth to weigh in mystery weights and participate in our lottery. What a turn out! Thank you so much guys for visiting us!

I made a short video from the expo. I had my new drone with me, DJI Mini 4K , It looked awesome! Still learning how to fly it but got some decent shots from it. I had to do this quite fast and on the go so it's not that perfect I think but check it out below 👇 

P.S I did fill out creditation to Pohjanmaa Rally in June, hope I get the chance to shoot there📷📽️

I'm the editor-in-chief for Lapland's gold digging association.

The spring is here and I have been quite busy. I have taken a job from Lapin Kullankaivajain liitolta, Laplands gold diggers association. I'm the editor-in-chief for their magazine Prospäkkäri, Prospector. The first one is already published. So, I am an journalist now too. I have written to Weightlifting associations paper, Snatch magazine too. In another news, I have a massive project in weightlifting, doing a documentary about our national team and athletes. Also, athlete interviews, we have European Championships in Batumi starting in 19.4 and I interviewed our athletes in training camp that was preparing them for the Euros. One is already done and out in YouTube. More on the editing table. Lot of Davinci Resolve learning for me. Also, I have been planning a photography exhibition, from my weightlifting pictures, This Is Weightlifting exhibition. Still looking for the venue. I'm going to go to gold trails for summer to make some content and so I have some work ahead of me. Let's enjoy the spring and stay tuned.

What a weekend in weightlifting in Finland🔥

I was watching the Finnish weightlifting national championships from YLE Livestream Friday to Saturday and Sunday I was at the venue taking pictures.

First of all, Tampereen Pyrintö had really outdone the competition venue, it was awesome. They had led screens and lifted platform and more. This is what a competition should look like!

I took some nice photos, some turned out great, some not. This was my second time with this camera and I was trying few things. The competition venue had a lot of red color and yellowish lights so not the best combo. I don't have any filters, I have ordered some special ones but I was having a hard time with the colors. And I wasn't the only one. But we did our best. Hey, if you wanna check out the live stream, you can find the links HERE

I can't wait for my special filters to come, I wanna try them out!

Let's see what's next for me. There is a big news that I have been waiting to announce!

UPDATE FOR JANUARY

16.1.2026

Hello friends and new visitors. I have exciting news, I have updated my photography gear. My main camera is now Canon EOS 90D and with that I can take 4K videos for my clients, if needed! I got help from a friend to get this, due to my current situtations in life and work. I am very excited for this, I can produce more with better quality to you guys. I have a back up camera, it is and good old Sony that I got as a gift from a stranger that had heard my troubles. It is a very good camera for landscape and portraits. Overall a good, sturdy camera. And with those act of kindness Fygstermedia is back in business. I can`t find the words to expressmy gratitude for these eople that helped me. But I can promise I will stay on this, trying to make my way in this world. I have also applied to study for Media and pictural expressions basic studies here in Sedu Kurikka. These studies are ongoing for two years and I can still work while I study. These studies would give me more knowledge and expand my professionals skills in my this area of profession. I will know in a about week or so if I get the position to study. Let`s hope so!

Not the start I wanted for 2026

2.1.2026

Welcome new year, new plans and new opportunity! I had a terrible situtation in my last photography gig, my Canon EOS 80D broke down before the event started. My back up camera was in maintenance too, and that one is quite old. I do have a Sony in use right now but it is bit vintage so good quality video is not possible. This was very unfortuned, and now I am in a need of new gear. I was planning to expand my services this year to livestreaming services too. We will see what will happen this spring. I do sincerely hope I could provide more and learn new things. I still think that this unfortunate event with my camera could be converged to a new opportunity. I am hopefull!
