Photographer and adventurer.

My passion for photography truly ignited at the age of 13, when I invested a large part of my savings in a Nikon D40. For me at that time, this was the ultimate camera. The seed for my photography passion was planted at much earlier age, thanks to my grandmother, a professional portrait and travel photographer. She would always share intriguing stories and amazing photos from her many adventures. Her passion for the craft of photography continues to inspire me to this day.

My earliest active memory of taking photos is me trying to capture my favourite teddy bear on film at the age of six or seven. While the technology has certainly evolved since then, my passion for photography has stayed the same. I'm particularly drawn to wildlife, nature, and adventure photography.

From the stillness of a laying in a wildlife hide, awaiting the perfect light to illuminate a passing deer, to the exhilarating experience of tracking wild tigers in Nepal, wildlife photography evokes the full spectrum of emotions. Over the years I have developed a deep passion for climbing and mountaineering as well. My photography has organically evolved to include these subjects into my work. Capturing breathtaking images while climbing on a razor-thin ridge or while hanging on frozen waterfall certainly adds an entirely new layer to the experience.
