Martin Gregus, a Slovakian-Canadian wildlife photographer, has transformed his lifelong passion for nature into an illustrious 15-year career. Based in Vancouver, BC, Martin's dedication to capturing the planet’s beauty began as a childhood fascination, inspired by his father, Martin Gregus Sr, a respected photographer.
His journey with photography started at the age of 7 and rapidly evolved after moving to Canada in 2004, where he received his first camera. Martin's keen eye sees patterns and movements in landscapes that many overlook, capturing the beauty of ordinary scenes and once-in-a-lifetime moments. His work tells the story of our planet, filled with detail, natural dynamics, and a creative transformation of nature into visual art.
As the youngest member of the Gregus Creactive Group, Martin has honed his skills in wildlife photography, often using custom equipment, remote cameras, and camera cars to capture the perfect shot. His talent has been recognised globally, with accolades from prestigious contests like the Wildlife Photographer of the Year and publications in National Geographic, Canadian Geographic, and BBC Wildlife Magazine.
Martin's contributions to the field extend beyond photography. He has exhibited his documentary and street photography, delivered presentations, led youth camps, and now operates as a Director of Photography and drone pilot with AviaEye. His collaborations with PhotoFabrica and MatkoPictures continue to bring exceptional visual stories to life.
Martin's philosophy is simple yet profound: adventure awaits when you're willing to jump for it. His work not only showcases the splendor of wildlife and nature but also inspires a deeper appreciation and understanding of our planet’s diverse habitats.
