Lil' Planets are immersive artworks created by warping 360-degree panoramic photos into tiny, globe-like worlds. The effect wraps the environment into a circular frame, creating a surreal, dreamlike perspective where sky, land, and subject all curve around a single point.

I capture a full 360-degree view using either a drone for aerial perspectives or a high end mirrorless camera mounted on a panoramic tripod head for ground-level precision. The stitched panorama is then projected into a circular “planet” using specialized software and refined through detailed post-processing to enhance composition, contrast, and clarity.

Unlike automated 360 photography, my Lil’ Planets are entirely hands-on and artist-driven. Using advanced techniques, I control lighting, angle, exposure, and composition to achieve the highest image quality. Each image is carefully planned, whether from drone or ground based on the location’s layout, symmetry, and emotional tone. The final transformation is a sculptural digital process, where I fine-tune distortion and tone to create immersive, cohesive visuals that tell a story. This blend of technical precision and artistic intent sets my work apart.

Wide-open spaces with prominent central features—such as cityscapes, landmarks, waterfalls, lakes and mountains translate beautifully into Little Planet compositions. Aerial shots from drones enhance visual symmetry, while ground-based captures reveal layered depth and architectural nuance.

Yes. I offer custom commissions for individuals, businesses, and institutions.
