With a passion for both pedaling and photography, Māris brings a unique blend of athleticism and artistry to our tours. His journey began on the rugged trails of MTB races, where he conquered challenges with grit and determination. But it wasn’t long before he discovered another way to express his love for the outdoors: through the lens of his camera.

Over the years, Māris honed his photography skills, capturing the raw beauty of nature and the exhilaration of cycling with equal finesse. From the sweeping landscapes of remote trails to the heart-pounding action of high speed racing events, his images tell stories that resonate with viewers on a deep and visceral level.

As Māris says he is aiming to freeze moments in time, capturing the emotions and moments that make life truly extraordinary. Whether it the joy of victory, the camaraderie of a group ride, or the quiet introspection of a solitary cyclist, you can expect Māris’s to capture it all with unparalleled clarity and insight.

In 2023, Māris’s talent caught the attention of Red Bull Photography, catapulting him into the spotlight and solidifying his status as one of the industry’s rising stars. Yet, despite his growing success, he remains grounded, always seeking to push the boundaries of his craft and explore new creative horizons.

With his easygoing nature and infectious enthusiasm, Māris has seamlessly become part of team here at HC Bike Tours, inspiring us to see the world through fresh eyes and reminding us that the journey is just as important as the destination.
