Hello everyone! My name is Rob Gogatz and I am a photographer in Southern California. My journey in photography started while playing soccer at UC Berkeley. While at school I got my first camera and immediately fell in love with photography and the idea of trying to convey stories through the images I captured. This passion caused me to switch my major to Film so I could further develop my skill of capturing  stories. I knew once I finished my soccer career, I wanted to become a photographer.

Once I graduated, I chased professional soccer for a number of years. Soccer took me to amazing places all over the world and I would never trade that experience but I always knew photography would be the profession for me. I just finished my soccer career two years ago and have been chasing my dream of photographing ever since.
