Torres del Paine National Park, Patagonia, Chile 2014.
I live and work in Cieszyn. I graduated English philology. I have three passions in life: photography, traveling and snowboarding.
I bought my first camera 5 years ago it was a digital compact. At first I didn�t think of photography as an art. I bought a camera designed for casual shooting (events, tours, etc.). Once I went in for capture landscapes. I started to read about photography and for the first time I�ve learned the concept of SLR. Borrowed a digital SLR camera from a friend and everything has begun. (I capture landscapes, nature and reportage-style shooting).
Awards For me photography means travels, light and time. I was born in 1985, but the photography has started interesting me when I was 20 years old. Inspired by photos which I saw in one of the issues of National Geographic, I borrowed DSLR from a friend and then it began… Since 2007, I have been awarded with several prizes and commendations in various photography contests. However by far the most important for me is National Geographic Poland statuette gained for the first place in category “Polish Landscape” in 2010.
