Paulo Olivier

The channel of Paulo Olivier Hanshing (also known simply as Paulo Olivier) is a Chilean landscape photographer and educator who documents his photographic expeditions throughout his country's stunning natural environments. His videos are immersive vlogs that invite the viewer to accompany him on his trips through iconic locations in Chile, such as the Atacama Desert, the Patagonian trails in Torres del Paine or the forests during the fall season.

The style of its content is characterized by being very reflective and focused on the atmosphere and the creative process on the ground. Paulo not only shows the landscapes, but narrates in real time how he evaluates the weather conditions (such as fog, wind or the position of the sun) to achieve the desired image. It is common to see him explain why he chooses certain lenses—from telephoto lenses to isolate textures in the dunes, to wide angle lenses to capture atmospheric phenomena—detailing the technical parameters he uses while he waits patiently for the light to be just right.

In addition to his solo work, Paulo runs a photography club and occasionally collaborates with other photographers on their videos. His approach seeks to go beyond the simple "postcard photo", seeking to extract unique compositions, lines and textures from the environment, demonstrating that the experience of camping, walking and connecting with nature is as fundamental to him as the final photographic result.
