Turning moments into brands. My grandfather built lenses for ZEISS, my mother worked as a photo laboratorian. So the photography was, so to speak, laid my cradle. As an educated journalist photography and videography for me is about moments and atmospheres. I love to shoot documentary in a minimalistic and cinematic style while being part of real situations. Authentic moments are resulting in authentic pictures. Nowadays my clients are digital agencies, (print) publishers, photo companies, family businesses, artists, entrepreneuers, sport teams, hospitals and doctors. Mostly active I'm in the genres corporate, event, editorial, portrait & product with my Canon EOS R5 and various lenses and equipment (incl. wireless micros for videography and interviews). Beside making photos I'm a photo trainer for THE PHOTO ADACEMY (Paris) in Cologne.
