About me
Hello and welcome to my vibrant world!
I’m Ionuț Vlad, and I’m excited to share my journey into photography with you—a realm that is both expansive and intriguing.
My love for photography began a few years ago when I casually started an Instagram account and shared photos taken with my phone, despite knowing little about the art. The true turning point came when I purchased my first camera, a Nikon D5300 DSLR. That’s when I realized the depth and complexity of photography. Driven by curiosity, I immersed myself in countless tutorials, spent hundreds of hours on YouTube, and found inspiration in the work of talented photographers.
My dedication was rewarded in 2024 when I received my accreditation as a professional photographer. This milestone represents a significant step toward my goals and strengthens my commitment to the craft.
I have a deep passion for outdoor activities, and since photography became a part of my life, I never venture out without my camera. Whether I’m hiking with my tripod or embarking on photo tours with friends like Paulian or Adrian, my camera and lenses are always by my side. I’ve explored trails in the Făgăraș, Bucegi, and Ciucaș, beautiful Romanian mountains, and I take pleasure in planning trips, enjoying the journey, and relishing the editing process when I return home.
But my interests go beyond mountain hikes. Traveling and discovering new places, cultures, and people has become a near-addictive passion. Capturing and preserving the beauty of the places I visit, iconic buildings, and dream cities is something I truly love.
These two passions blend seamlessly, and through this website, I hope to inspire fellow travelers and photography enthusiasts by sharing my experiences and adventures over the years.
