Fabian has lost his heart to the wild and has been using the camera to share this passion since he was seven years old. His running project "Once Upon a Time in the Wild" is both love letter and eulogy to the world’s astonishing animals and the wild places they inhabit — unapologetic in its display of nature’s beauty, yet tinged with melancholy about our destructive influence on the foundations of life on Earth.
