About me

Hey, I'm Pauli, a passionate amateur photographer from Graz in Austria. Photography had me hooked even before I realised it. I took my first photo – which is now my profile picture on various platforms – when I was just 11 years old. It shows a chipmunk that I managed to capture with an old digital camera whilst hiking in Bryce Canyon. From 2020 onwards, I finally started devoting more time and attention to photography. I gradually moved on from my mobile phone to an old Olympus camera belonging to my parents, and eventually to my first piece of equipment that I bought myself, always striving to take my photos to a new level, both technically and artistically. Alongside my social media accounts, I've decided to create this website as an online portfolio and blog, even if I can't always be that active!
