My name is Konsta Punkka, I'm 22 years old nature, wildlife and lifestyle photographer from Helsinki, Finland.

I'm based in the Nordic countries, so I spend my time taking close-up, emotional portraits of the fauna we have here. 

I also spend a lot of time to capturing the beautiful rough landscape around Finland and Norway. 

I spend my days laying down in the muddy puddles trying to make myself comfortable close to the animals. 

Hiding and exploring around the same areas many times always gives you the best results. 

I also love the cold and freezing temperatures we got up here, sleeping in the wilderness at snowstorm is the best feeling ever.

Hey there my name is Michael Shainblum!

I have been a professional photographer/filmmaker for about 9 years now since the age of 16.

Ever since I was a little kid all I have wanted to do was create.

Whether that be building LEGO towers or doodling comic strips.

Fast forward to years later and I am doing the same thing (well maybe with less LEGO’s and doodling).

My work consists of Fine Art Landscape Photography, Aerial Photography, Aerial Filmmaking, Travel/Adventure Photography and Commercial Time-lapse Photography.

I have worked with clients like Nike, Samsung, Verizon, Disney, BMW, Google and many more. My work has been published by National Geographic, Wired Magazine, Huffington Post and The Weather Channel.

My name is Karen Marie. I am a maker and an artist.

I am a seeker, an adventurer, and a creator.

The earth is filled with beauty beyond measure and every day presents the opportunity to see the same things in a new way, to give fresh perspective to what seems old, and to never stop learning.

My photography is an overflow of my heart and ambition. I want to capture the real, raw, authentic, and the emotional—the little things that go unnoticed; the art of being human.

I photograph people who live adventurously, love uncontrollably, and have ambition.

From my shooting style to my editing tones, I do things natural and down to earth.

I create images for individuals, as well as brands whether big or small.

I have a heart for people and I value authenticity. My photography will always be about my clients and never about me.
