Oliver Bunica is a Pacific Northwest native who was always more interested in cities, planes, and trains than in the nature he grew up surrounded by. He discovered on his first solo overseas adventure how much he enjoyed shooting travel and street photography when the smartphone he was using to take pictures with ran out of storage space halfway through the trip. It wouldn't be for another few years that he would make the leap to a DSLR so he could capture more succinctly the scenes that his smartphone could not. Since then, he never leaves the country without his trusty Nikon.
Oliver loves the way a photo can carry so much story around it. How it was taken, what that day was like, how it felt, how the air smelled. He loves how photography as an art can conjure the memories of a place, or even give a sense of nostalgia for a place he's never been. He would describe himself as an unintentional explorer with an intentional eye, wandering the great cities of the world looking for interesting or beautiful things to capture — things that may last just a moment, or has been the case many times, waiting a long time for the light to hit just right.
