Travel Photographers Who Capture the Sophistication of Austria
With its refined coffee house culture and dainty mountaintop rural wooden cabins, Austria has a refined character that makes it one of Europe’s most sophisticated countries. These travel photographers have captured its spirit perfectly.
Alex Strohl
A seasoned globe-hopper, having visited some of the world’s most remote spots, French photographer Alex Strohl strays away from meticulously planned shots, preferring a more organic and spontaneous approach to photography – a welcome departure from the barrage of perfectly curated Instagram posts. His work is dramatic and authentic and has caught the attention of many reputable publications including Forbes and Vanity Fair. These spectacular photos of the Austrian Alps feature as part of his new book project, Alternative Living, and capture the country’s rugged rural beauty perfectly. Catch more of his work here.
