RAFI DJOKOSOETONO

I grew up in Jakarta, spent several years in Boston studying mechanical engineering at Northeastern University, and somewhere along the way the technical and the creative became impossible to separate. I worked across consumer electronics and clean energy technology before coming back home to run operations for one of Indonesia's largest transportation companies. The engineering brain never really switches off — it just shows up differently now. In the gear I choose, in how I approach a shot, in the way I think about problems.

Photography has been a constant through all of it. I shoot travel, landscapes, street, and underwater — mostly wherever I end up with a camera. A lot of what you'll find here never made it to Instagram. Some trips were too long for a caption, some frames too quiet for a feed. This is where those go.

I'm based in Jakarta but try to be somewhere else as often as I can manage.
