Hungary

I’ve been photographing sailing competitions as a professional since 2016. As I look into my camera, the world around me disappears and I live only for the moment. I've experienced 60 knot gale force winds, hailstorms, 7-to-8-metre-waves on board boats in the ocean – but all these dangers have added more motivation and a creative dimension to my work. With media accreditation, I’ve been working at the edition of the Volvo Ocean Race, the start and finish of the Vendée Globe and the Golden Globe Race, the 52 Super Series, the Bol d'Or Mirabaud, the Centomiglia, the Rund Um Bodensee and the Kékszalag (Blue Ribbon) at Lake Balaton, my home regatta. As a woman, I’m doing my best to hold my own in this male-dominated profession, which poses many challenges not only for sailors, but also for photographers.
