Aneta Michniak (b. 1993) is a Polish-Canadian photographer based in Squamish, Canada. Her work is characterized by an effortless, dreamy aesthetic, capturing the delicate complexities and subtleties within each moment.
Aneta's interest in photography took root at a young age, using her family's cameras to experiment with capturing the world around her. This early exposure nurtured her creativity and laid the foundation for her future career. Her professional journey into photography began during her university years when she acquired a second-hand camera.
Upon graduating from the University of British Columbia with a degree in Kinesiology, Aneta set off on an adventure across the globe, exploring various countries such as Sri Lanka, Vietnam, Burma, and India. These extensive travels became a significant source of inspiration, enriching her personal experiences and carving a unique path for her photographic style. This journey not only expanded her artistic perspective, but it also fostered a deep appreciation and intimate understanding of diverse cultures.
Aneta's work, with its vibrant colours, depth, and warmth, beautifully blends with the thriving natural environments she explores. The individuals she encounters along her journey continually inspire her, with their influence apparent in each of her photographs.
