Ciprian Popica
Landscape and nature photographer, based in Brasov Romania.
The interest for photography started when I was only four years old, thanks to my dad who was learning photography at that time. In 2003 I started to take photography seriously, but only for a few years. From 2009 until recently, I did mostly video production and a little bit of filmmaking. In 2023 I returned to photography full time covering various photography genre, but I settled to landscape and nature photography.
Besides photography, I am also passionate about sailing. In 2015 I moved aboard my sailboat where I lived for almost four years. The intention was to sail solo around the world. An amazing way to visit unique locations that I could photograph. Life doesn’t always go as we plan it, so in 2018 I returned home in Romania and postponed the adventure.
I decided to start a YouTube channel where I could share my adventures as a photographer. The videos are a great method to tell the story behind the image. Photography is my escape to freedom, behind the camera is where I truly feel at home.
