The Team Behind the Camera
Natasa Petrova
Born and raised in Bratislava, Slovakia, Natasa’s love for photography began with a bit of pressure and a lot of motivation. Right before her final high school exams, her parents made a promise: do well, and you’ll get your first real camera — a film Minolta SLR. The day before the exams, sitting on the main square with her best friend, Natasa had a sinking feeling… she wasn’t going to pass. No camera. No dream.
But she did pass. And she got the camera.
That moment sparked a lifelong passion. Today, Natasa finds joy in capturing the beauty of people, culture, and nature — especially when traveling to exotic places and the ones closest to her heart. Her photography is a reflection of quiet observation and deep curiosity, framed by a love for storytelling through visuals.
Ricky Wang
Ricky grew up in Concord, Massachusetts, where weekends were filled with basketball games, snowboard runs, and spontaneous photo missions. After his first real job after college, he took a year off to backpack across Europe and China — an experience that deepened his love for travel, culture, and unexpected detours.
He’s shot with all kinds of cameras over the years, but everything changed when he found Fujifilm. Since then, he’s been hooked on capturing the energy of cities, the quiet of landscapes, and the people that bring them to life.
Ricky is happiest when he’s exploring the road less traveled — camera in hand, eyes wide open.
Miles
50% Australian Cattle Dog, 20% Beagle, and 100% fun, Miles joined the family in November 2025 and has been stealing hearts ever since. Equal parts curious and cuddly, he’s happiest on woodland adventures (as long as there are no ticks in sight) or sprinting through the park with his four-legged friends. Whether he’s keeping us company on the road or supervising from the studio floor, Miles is an essential part of the Laska Media crew.
