I love capturing everything - sports, fashion, places, people, animals, cars. Every moment has something in it that feels special to me.

Thats me
I grew up in Stuttgart. As a kid, I spent a lot of time in the US and UK. Later, I moved to Hamburg to study Marketing Management and that’s also where I started my own creative agency.
Somewhere along the way I realized: I wish I could capture the smell of certain moments I love, put them in a glass, and open it whenever I want to remember. Well, that’s not possible and since then I’ve been photographing and preserving those moments instead.
My way of working
Honestly, what matters to me most is authenticity. I’m not into staged perfection, I love the raw laugh, the focused look, the little energy that passes by so quickly you almost miss it. That’s the stuff I want to catch. When I shoot, I like to be close, to talk and laugh, and to create something together. For me, photography isn’t a one-way street - it’s a collaboration, an exchange of vibes and trust.
