About Me

My first camera was an analog Canon AE-1, which I was given on loan to the Foto-AG in 1988 at high school.
The tutor at the time fascinated me with his black-and-white photos of Berlin architecture, streets and backyards. My first photo film was an Illford HP 5 ISO 400 black and white, which I used on my first model, my great love ♥ Berlin, snapped.

Various cameras have followed to this day, although I currently rely on Nikon! After many private projects, my first photo assignments were for a club magazine, for which I was allowed to photograph artists, dancers, staff or the locations every month.

Over time I was able to gain a lot of experience, developed my sense of attention to detail, exposure, the staging of people or a wide variety of things for product and advertising photography.

From 2006 I photographed for a well-known model agency in Berlin, and to this day I have produced countless sed card & polaroid shoots, calendars, magazine series, collection shoots, etc.

I was not only inspired by orders and their challenges, or models, but also by clients, partners and colleagues.

Sven Rodriguez (formerly Asmus) played a big part in my development. We got to know each other through joint work and projects for the agency and shop. Over time, my own collaborations and productions developed, during which I liked to look over his shoulder. Above all, my knowledge of photography in the areas of manual photography, exposure and lighting benefited from his many years of experience as a studio manager for Zuumeo.

Since 2013 we have been organizing shooting trips together for our model finca project, in which both our own projects and shootings can be realized, but collection and commissioned work can also be implemented. Our current project is Kalender-Shop24.de, a shop through which we sell our work in print and digital.

What I do

I capture the moment with great attention to detail, passion and professionalism in order to create unique motifs.

My strengths lie in the fields of emotional portraits, expressive people photography and professional comp cards as well as advertising photography for food and locations.

I offer interesting workshops and coaching for models and photographers that give you the opportunity to benefit from my 20 years of experience as a photographer. From posing, gestures, facial expressions, choice of clothes to lighting, studio & outdoor photography or post-production with Adobe CC Suite, I offer a wide-ranging portfolio.

In order to achieve the best possible results, your well-being is very important to me. It doesn't matter whether you're a newcomer or a professional, we'll work out great motifs together!

What makes me special

Creativity

I like to implement customer requests, like to bring in my experience, ideas and creativity to create unique pictures.
We also benefit from my independent photo studio, a very large stock of costumes and an extensive arsenal of exposure equipment and photo technology.

Quick processing

Agreed deadlines are met from the first meeting to delivery.

Fair prices

Depending on the budget, I realize projects such as sedcards, polaroids or refreshers of your model book up to large productions in external photo studios, locations or abroad at fair, transparent prices.

Professionalism

For me, professionalism not only means good equipment, but also professional handling of light and technology. I attach great importance to fun and passion in order to capture and transport the necessary emotionality in my pictures.
