If I were good with words, I would have become a writer. But I am not. Nevertheless, I love to tell stories. Stories of people and their character, of objects and their making, of ideas and their realisation. I use my photographs to tell these stories.
For more than 20 years. For international companies, brands and personalities. In Germany and all over Europe. Sometimes I only have a few minutes to pull out that one unique moment, but that's exactly what challenges me and what I love. Just like diving deep into the most complicated contexts and working out their essence with ease.
I studied Art Photography at the Folkwang University of the Arts in Essen, Germany, from 1997-2004. I live in Düsseldorf.
