Mihaela Noroc travels and captures the natural beauty around the world showing the diversity of our planet through portraits of women. In Mihaela’s own words, “I’m a 33 years old photographer from Bucharest, Romania, but I spent most of the last 6 years traveling in different countries of the world.
My father is a painter so since my childhood I was surrounded by colours. When I was 16, I discovered photography but, unfortunately, in the next years I couldn’t make a living from it, so I had to work in other fields, where I could earn a decent income. Traveling during vacations as a backpacker, in different parts of the world, made me discover the diversity of our planet. So when I was 27 I decided to quit my ordinary life in Bucharest and put all my efforts and savings into travel and photography. That’s when I created The Atlas of Beauty.
In time the project became very popular all around the world, but today I believe I’m the same ordinary person like 6 years ago that loves to discover the unnoticed beauty which blooms in every woman.
I see myself like a normal woman, with ups and downs. I work hard for my dream, and, fortunately, this dream is very appreciated by a large audience. But there are millions of women in the world, that work even harder for their goals and their activities don’t seem so spectacular from the outside. I hope I will have the chance to photograph some of them for the project, capturing their inner and outer beauty and showing how special they are.”
