My story

Welcome to my photography website! I’m Jitka – a traveler, nature lover, and passionate photographer from the Czech Republic who has spent the past 15+ years exploring some of the world’s most breathtaking landscapes.

Together with my partner, we’ve lived in Canada, New Zealand, Iceland, and Norway, and traveled across many countries in South America, North America, Asia, Africa, Europe, and Oceania.

We’ve trekked the challenging Huayhuash Circuit in the Andes, reached Gokyo Lakes via Everest Base Camp in Himalayas, climbed Mount Rinjani volcano, explored the Amazon rainforest, and camped deep inside Corcovado National Park in Costa Rica. We’ve wandered through Japan with its blend of neon cities and tranquil temples; Vietnam’s vibrant markets, mountains, and limestone bays; Peru’s ancient cultures and dramatic high-altitude landscapes; and Chile’s rugged Patagonian wilderness.

We relaxed in the turquoise lagoons of the Maldives, explored the vast deserts and wildlife of Namibia, soaked in the volcanic beauty of Hawaii, and admired the diverse coastlines and national parks of Australia — and many more. These journeys continue to shape my photography vision and deepen my admiration for the natural world.

I also completed a transformative Yoga Teacher Training on Koh Phangan, which deepened my connection to myself, nature, mindfulness, and creativity. I teach yoga in the small Arctic town of Mestervik in northern Norway, where polar day and polar night shape the rhythm of life.

Today, my photography focuses on dramatic landscapes, the Northern Lights, outdoor portraits, and the raw beauty of wild places. My work is a reflection of my love for adventure, remote nature, and the powerful moments that happen far from the beaten path.
