San Diego based Freelance Photographer Karl Grobl has been passionate about photography since childhood. Karl's first photographic images were taken while traversing the United States on annual family vacations, using a Kodak instamatic he received on his 8th birthday. Since that time his equipment has changed, but not Karl's zest for travel and photography. His photographic pursuits have carried him to over 20 countries and for the past 7 years Karl has turned his attention toward documenting the last remnants of indigenous cultures around the globe. With a sense of urgency and a belief that global awareness of these unique cultures is requisite to their promotion and preservation, Karl adds annually to his portfolio of compelling imagery which can be viewed at www.karlgrobl.com. Karl is now accepting challenging assignments worldwide.
