Born in 1974, Mia Segaert graduated at the University of Mons (BELGIUM) with a Master in Business Economics. After a 25-year career in Real Estate and finance she made a career switch and followed her heart end 2022.

Fascinated by photography and the artistic world since childhood, she studied Photo Art at the Academy of Visual Arts in Antwerp (Brasschaat) combined by own practice. 

Deeply inspired by nature in general, the ocean in particular, contemporary architecture, and cross-cultural relations, she focusses with her fine art photography on the extraordinary landscape phenomena while traveling. She attempts to give a new (sur)realism by accentuating the aesthetic of our precious blue planet with intuitive photography. In this way she wants to express her emotions and convey a powerful message.

Her artistic work is based on 3 themes: Altitude, earth and Ocean all transient, evolutionary and dynamic.

Her photographic artworks are subjected to a rigorous selection for a sophisticated and exclusive collection of fine art prints.

In 2023 and 2024, she won many awards in large international competitions such as FEP (Federation of European Professional Photographers), PX3 Prix de la Photography Paris, Black & Spider Awards, Muse Photography Awards. Yet the most striking ones are the ‘State of the World 2023’ Curatorial selection – Paris photo prize from Px3 for “Glacier Azur” and Gold winner from Muse Photography Awards for “Ethereal Bodies”.
