Urs was born in Zurich, Switzerland in 1961. He moved to Sydney Australia with his family at the age of 10 at which stage he feel in love with the ocean & fishing. At the age of 20 he enrolled in the Australian Maritime College and began fishing professionally.
Urs' father, a graphic designer & strong advocate of the Bauhaus movement was to influence Urs' next phase - his move into professional photography. Today Urs specialises in car, landscape & seascape photography. When he was commissioned to shoot the Nissan World Calendar in Japan in 2005, it was not just for his technical skills as a car photographer, but also his creative vision as a landscape & seascape photographer.
Urs' love of the sea can be clearly seen in his landscape photography where his innate sense of space, perspective & time can be traced back to years spent on the water. He has built up a unique library of seascape & landscape stock images which can be viewed by visiting www.ursbuhlman.com
