摄影师秋笔用镜头讲述情怀

Wang Wenyan was born in 1987 in Fujian province. Her pen name is Qiubi. She is a talented photographer. She takes photos of people, wildlife, landscapes, and stars in the sky. All shows her broad interests. But Qiubi is mainly a documentary (纪实的) and Antarctica photographer.

When Wang was in university, she got her first camera as a gift from her father. In 2008, after graduating from university, she used the camera to take photos for working. At work, she met her future husband. They married and moved to Beijing. In 2013, during a trip with friends in the capital, she captured moments of her friends’ children with her camera. That’s when she discovered how much she enjoyed photography.

The photos brought her first commercial photography commission (正式委托). More commissions followed. She slowly became a full-time commercial photographer. Her special style began to attract more attention. In 2014, she was invited to record for a project in a village at the foot of the Qilian Mountains in Gansu province. The project succeeded and she received more commissions from different companies, organizations and universities. Their projects cover a wide range of fields. They have brought her to remote communities in China and abroad.

While working on these projects, Qiubi developed a passion for recording the stories of grass-root society. Before taking photos, she would first communicate with people, spend time getting to know them and take part in their daily lives. Her experiences have deepened her understanding of the environmental difficulties that the people faced with.

Besides her trips to the countrysides, Qiubi has also been exploring Antarctica.
