I'm drawn to the overlooked.

My name is Lukas Mari. I am a documentary photographer based in Vienna, with a degree in journalism.

I photograph the incidental, not the postcard. Nothing spectacular, often overlooked, and that is exactly why it stays.

In no hurry, in available light. Nothing is staged. The pictures come from Vienna and from further away: Egypt, India, New Zealand, the Arctic. Where they were taken matters less than what they hold.

In 2026 I self-published my first zine, One More Light: Four Quiet Observations. Since 2014 I have made a calendar every year, mostly one country at a time. The 2027 edition is all about light.
