About Me

I am a freelance photographer based in Inverness, Scotland, originally from Poland. My work combines my background in social work, positive psychology, and photography to explore themes of identity, belonging, and personal transformation. I also drink an unreasonable amount of coffee while contemplating life’s big questions—like why dogs always seem to understand us better than people do.

Explore & Grow

In 2025, I launched Explore and Grow, a therapeutic photography practice dedicated to self-exploration and personal development. If you’d like to learn more about this approach, [click here]. It’s about seeing yourself in a way that feels honest, meaningful, and maybe even a little surprising.

My Practice

I work with film and digital photography and am passionate about capturing genuine, unfiltered moments that tell a story. My approach combines documentary and interpretive styles, focusing on themes such as human connection, memory, and emotions. My background in psychology and social work deeply influences this perspective.

I see photography as a powerful medium for reflection, inviting us to pause and notice the often-overlooked nuances of life. With a curious eye, I continually explore and ask questions about the world around me.

Playfulness is central to my creative process. I enjoy experimenting, embracing spontaneity, and finding joy in exploration. It’s how I engage with life, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

My photography evolves without a fixed voice, resonating with the language of the people who collaborate with me on my projects. It focuses on advocacy, efficacy and building real connections.
