One Shot: The Eagle Hunters of Mongolia

The project

The Blue Banana One Shot 4.0 is a creative photography-adventure project by the brand Blue Banana that aims to turn “dream photos” into reality.

In this edition, photographers travelled to the Altái Mountains to document the life of eagle-hunters (the “Kazakh Eagle Hunters”), creating powerful images of human-animal connection and traditional nomadic culture.

The experience

Getting creative freedom is what all creatives search in a project. This time Blue Banana gave me this opportunity and I said yes straight away. Experiencing Asia for the first time in my life and meeting such extraordinary people that carry ancient traditions still to this day was an amazing milestone in my life as a traveler.
