My name is Paweł. I’m a photographer and virtual tours creator. I was born and raised in Poland, but now I live in Brooklyn, NY. When you don’t see me shooting photos I most likely watch a soccer game at that time :-)
Photography has played an important role in my life since the first day I grabbed a digital camera. Having pictures immediately popped up on the backscreen was so enjoyable compared to shooting with my old film DSLR that I just had my camera with me almost all the time and everywhere I went. I did mostly street, urban and landscape photography but I also tested my skills as an event photographer.
I stepped into the world of spherical panoramic images about a decade ago, in 2011. I was immediately captured by the unique perspective they offer, something I’ve never seen before. I quickly learned specific shooting and editing techniques needed for creating spherical panoramas, also known as “little planets”. Since then I had a really great time taking literally thousands of photos showing my favorite places from a very unusual viewpoint.
At that time, a virtual tour computer software, which would allow to convert a series of those spherical panoramas into a smooth virtual experience was only at the development stage. But since then it has grown dramatically and nowadays is more popular than ever before.
Modern editing programs allow to seamlessly connect these 360° panoramas into a truly immersive Virtual Tour, which gives people from all over the world a sense of physical presence in locations that are often hundreds or thousands miles from them!
