Peter Lik is the world’s most innovative and prolific
landscape photographers.
His passion and dedication to his craft are unsurpassed, and
Peter is recognized as the leaders in his field.
He was born in Melbourne Australia and is the only son of
Czech immigrant parents. Completely self taught, Peter’s
talent for photography was evident from an early age.
He first picked up a camera at the age of eight, and has
retained a spirit and enthusiasm for his work that is
equaled only by his unbounded energy and deep affinity for
the land.
It was while travelling in Alaska in 1994 that Peter’s
fascination with photography took a dramatic turn.
Previously only working with 35mm cameras, he discovered the
encompassing view of the panoramic camera and he was
converted. It opened up a whole new world of creative
possibilities and took him to another level in his
photography.
Peter Lik opened his first gallery in his hometown of
Cairns, Australia and due to an overwhelming demand, it was
followed almost immediately by a second in Port Douglas.
Now with Galleries in Sydney, Noosa, Hawaii and Las Vegas,
Peter Lik has established a credible presence worldwide.
With handcrafted local timber floors and unique custom
designed furniture, his galleries radiate a beautiful
ambience and are a fitting environment in which to profiile
his work.
Entering a Peter Lik Gallery is a total sensory experience.
His connection with the heart and soul of the landscape is
evident in his incredible images. From the soulful portraits
of the vast heartland deserts, to the pristine beauty of the
reefs and rainforests, Peter Lik captures the true feeling
of the land like no other.
