Who am I

My roots in mountain photography are deeply intertwined with a passion for climbing. As a young boy, I discovered the charms of the Jura Mountains, and climbing quickly became my obsession. The surrounding rocks served as inspiration, and I constantly felt the urge to overcome new challenges in this sport. Shortly after that, my discovery of the world of photography coincided, revealing how much joy capturing memories in the form of photos could bring. Both of these activities – climbing and photography – found a symbiotic relationship. As my skills developed, my youthful enthusiasm transformed into a genuine passion, and today, I rarely leave a camera at home.

I remain an active climber, endeavoring to spend every free moment at the crag or in the mountains. A few years ago, I left my job as an analyst to pursue a photography career. In this role, I focus primarily on outdoor themes, capturing passionate individuals or breathtaking landscapes on my camera sensor.

As photographers, we have only a single frame at our disposal, freezing a fraction of a second, and the captured moment must evoke emotions. I always strive to create an image that will affect that way both on a smartphone screen and as a large print on the wall.



What you can get by working with me?

I started shooting photos as a teenager. Initially, it was just a teenage hobby, but with the development of the digital era, everything changed, and I began to take it more seriously. Today, I am primarily engaged in outdoor photography, striving to showcase various activities in a way that encourages viewers to step out of their homes and experience their adventure away from the urban hustle and bustle.
My photos have been recognized in various competitions, including:
– Red Bull Illume
– Memorial Maria Luisa
– CVCE Photo Contest
– La Pedriza Mountain Photo Contest
– Monochrome Awards
– World Sports Photography Awards
Additionally, they have been appreciated by editors of many industry publications. So far, my work has gained the trust of redactions such as “Rock&Ice,” “Climbing,” “Climax,” “Montana,” “Klettern,” “Grimper,” “Vertical,” “UP Climbing,” “Desnivel,” “National Geographic,” as well as non-outdoor-related titles like “Gazeta Wyborcza,” “Angora,” and many others.
