Leire Unzueta
"I'm a lover of the great outdoors, and I really feel creative when I am surrounded by a beautiful landscape or wandering in the forest."
"I am a landscape and travel photographer. I started traveling around the world at a young age and after living in both North and Latin America for sometime, I developed an interest for other cultures and different ways of living."
"I love to have the fog as my main subject in a lot of my photographs since I mostly shoot in overcast or moody days. I want to inspire people to get out, explore and travel because the world is full of wonders."
"Photography is a way to express my creativity. I love to create memories of the places I've been to or the people I've met. When I get older, I want to have a room full of boxes that contain photographs of moments and experiences, so that I will know for sure that I have lived a full life. I feel really inspired when I travel somewhere I have never been to. Everything is new so I become extremely creative and probably get my favorite photos on those occasions. Also, I feel inspired by looking at other people's work and hearing about their need to get out and shoot."
"I usually spend hours location scouting on my laptop and watching other's work. However, I always take a camera with me in case I stumble upon something that seems interesting. I check sunrise and sunset times and plan where I will go. I have a hard time getting up early so I skip sunrises, but I still get out early on overcast days. On sunny days, I wait for the sunset and I usually wander somewhere near the sea. After getting the images, I transfer them to my hard drives and start editing them only if I feel inspired. If there's any image portfolio worthy I upload it to the web, if not, I still write a blog post about that session. At the end of every month, I print my favorite images and hang them on the wall or keep them in boxes."
