Today February 6 is indigenous Sámi National Day; honoring the Sámi (Saami) people and commemorating the first Sámi congress held in 1917 in Trondheim, Norway.

In honor of this special day, I am celebrating some of the amazing people I’ve met, become friends with, photographed, and who have warmly invited me into their homes for various stories and reportages over 15 years.

Ollu giitu 🙏🏽❤️
