Photography has been part of my life since I received my first camera at the age of 15 — a passion that has never left me.
Growing up in Poland, I was always drawn to the outdoors, exploring nature and finding quiet moments away from everyday life. After moving to Scotland, that connection with landscapes grew even stronger. I began discovering its hidden corners, wandering through the empty streets of Edinburgh at unusual hours, chasing the atmosphere of the city before it wakes and the peacefulness that comes with the night.
I am fascinated by the moments when places feel untouched — the first light of dawn, the stillness after sunset, and the dramatic landscapes shaped by Scotland’s ever-changing weather. These fleeting moments are what inspire me to explore further and capture the character and atmosphere of each place.
Whether shooting with my analogue Hasselblad 500C/M, my digital Pentax K-1, or my Fujifilm camera, my goal remains the same: to capture authentic moments and create images that tell the story of the places I explore.
Hiking, backpacking, and travelling through Scotland are at the heart of my photography. From rugged mountains and remote coastlines to quiet forests and forgotten paths, I search for landscapes that inspire a sense of adventure and a deeper connection with nature.
I am currently based near the coast in the beautiful Kingdom of Fife, where I continue exploring Scotland and creating fine art landscape photography inspired by this incredible country.
