Mihail Onaca is a Romanian photographer whose work focuses on architecture, landscape, and travel.
Inspired by the landscapes and traditions of his native Transylvania, he takes a documentary-style approach to visual storytelling—one that finds meaning in simplicity and the quiet rhythm of daily life.
His work explores the richness of rural culture and heritage architecture in dialogue with the natural world, guided by a focus on light, atmosphere, and detail. The result is imagery that feels both timeless and personal.
