Every year we try to make a pilgrimage to the Palouse region in Washington, not just to encounter the stunning landscape but to take a break from street photography. An unspoken rule in the industry says that in order to be a successful photographer you need to focus on one area of photography. There is [...]
For the last few months I have been running at bullet train speed photographically and organizationally. There were tasks to complete, goals to achieve, deadlines to meet … a never-ending list of Dos. I probably don’t have to mention the fact that I have done a lot of photography in the last few months. There [...]
The new medium-format (MF) GFX system was released quite a while ago so there has already been excellent coverage of the camera, including in-depth reviews by talented photographers. Jonas Rask’s review is the one that stood out for me. Since I am late to the party I am not going to write another review. I [...]
We’ve been working on our R-A-I-N project for more than a year. There is no question that it has been one of the most challenging projects we’ve ever worked on – for several reasons. Luckily, there’s no shortage of rain in Vancouver! First, spending hours outside in the pouring rain when it’s cold and windy [...]
On the road, one of our favourite activities is to photograph historical and, ideally, remote places.

Over the years we have done many road trips around North America. Some of these trips brought us amazing memories and great imagery, which we often shared on this platform. While we enjoyed them, our latest road trip was the most important we have ever taken. Not only did we capture great imagery, visit spectacular [...]
It has been a very busy few weeks. Kasia and I have been working on a new photography platform – an idea that was formulated in our heads a long time ago but never got onto the drawing board. This year, that all changed. We have both enjoyed running this blog and we cherish and [...]
We joined this year’s April Fools craze with the piece “Enough of this mirrorless nonsense.” Thank you for laughing with us and not taking this babble of ours too seriously. Today I would like to touch on a personal note. We photographers have a tendency to work hard on our professional assignments or projects. However, [...]
The first lines of our 2016 blog said it all: “It is easy to pat yourself on the back in this serene atmosphere. You worked hard, produced great visuals, got many ‘beautifuls’ and you reached a place that is comfortable and cosy, so why disrupt this calm?” Well, somehow it feels cramped here; it’s static, [...]
