About me

Born in 1976 in Krakow, Poland. Grew up in Calgary, Canada. Spent most of my life living abroad, in strange and bewildering places. Studied political science and international relations. Am often mistaken for an Italian. Became interested in photography in my teens but got sidetracked by a guitar I received on my birthday. Rock stardom never materialized so I picked up photography while based in Africa and have been shooting ever since then, wherever I can. I especially love shooting black and white film on old Leicas. Fun fact: I'm currently based in Bogota and have a dachshund named Oscar.
