HELLO, I AM

BARBARA PUSTELNIK

Jersey Chanel Island based equine, pets, people and life style photographer taking artistic photos that you would be proud to hang on your wall.
I immortalize the beauty of your family, both animal and human and the wonderful moments it gives you so that you can keep them for yourself forever.

Artist. Animal lover.

For many years I lived in the beautiful city of Wroclaw, Poland, and from 2017 I discovered the charms of island life on the small island of Jersey in the Atlantic and I love it, especially as its only 10 minutes walk to the beach.

I’ve been taking pictures, probably like all of us since we were kids. The first photo I took that was important to me was in 2006 on a SLR camera borrowed from a friend. It was then that I felt this specific feeling of fascination with the creative process. For many years I played with photography, looking for my own style, and today I try to learn from the best and continue to train my skills.

Horses are my great love. For many years I was an employee of sports stables, currently only as a volunteer I help in the stable for pleasure. I have combined two passions into one and I know that this is something I want to devote my private and professional time to – horse photography. To capture these majestic animals in my pictures.

My second passion is travelling. So far I have visited 20 countries, which is not a bad result. I try to reconcile both passions and for some time I have also been photographing majestic horses in the countries I visit. My biggest dream is to be able to photograph wild horses around the world and I am slowly working towards this goal.
I invite you to get to know my portfolio.
