About Me
A Photographer between Worlds
I have been living and working as an expat in Beijing since late 2018. China serves as my base for travels across Asia—and for a growing collection of photographs that I share with you here.
What began as a hobby has evolved into a deliberate exploration of light, culture, and stories: landscapes in the first light of dawn, foreign cities at night, wildlife in Asia, architecture, and people—images that continue the narrative where words fall short.
Diversity in Image & Perspective
Travel & Landscape
Images from Asia, Europe and North America - from sunrises on the Bromo to cloudbursts in the Dolomites.
Macro & Wildlife
Small worlds and shy encounters — butterflies, chameleons, hornbills, and the bees of the mangroves.
Drone & Timelapse
Aerial perspectives and movement through time — Mount Bromo sunrise, rice fields, sunset cruise in Langkawi.
