Welcome to FVM PHOTOGRAPHY
Hi there! My name is Felipe and I am a photographer based in Sydney, Australia. After traveling the world for 5 years, I decided to move here to work full time in my passion: Photography.
I have done photography for many years now. I started learning as I traveled, hence my passion for Travel Photography. Now settled in Sydney, I focus on Couples, Weddings, Elopements & Maternity Shoots.
My goal is to use my creative skills to capture moments that will last forever. Let’s make it happen!
Hi! My name is Felipe and I am originally from a city called Cali, Colombia. Since I was a child, I always loved creating pieces of artwork, specially drawing and painting. As I grew older, that creative side of me slowly started shifting towards photography. I picked up a camera for the first time in High School when I started taking photos for their annual editorial books.
When I graduated, I decided to go to Law School (which has nothing to do with art or photography… I know). I worked as a Corporate Lawyer for 3 years in one of the biggest Law Firms in Colombia and little by little, I started climbing the corporate ladder. However, I knew that I was not happy inside an office. So, I decided to quit my job and go traveling around the world.
I had a small budget and a GoPro camera… and that was good enough.
A trip that was intended to last 6-12 months turned into 5 years! I managed to visit more than 60 countries and live amazing experiences. One of the ways I managed to create an income throughout my travels was via photography. I bought a DSLR camera from a friend I was traveling with and slowly started sharing my photos on Social Media. With time, I also started selling my photos to hotels, hostels and travel agencies.
After 5 years of roaming the world, I moved to Sydney, Australia. I fell in love with this city and well, my partner is from here so it was not a difficult decision.
I work now as a Full Time Photographer in this amazing place that I can now call home, being able to capture special moments for individuals and couples.
But that’s enough of me… Let’s focus on you and how to capture your special memories.
