Who I am

I was born in Berlin in 1988 and picked up photography early. After graduating from Lette Verein in 2015, it became my career. In 2022 I earned a Bachelor’s degree in business communication, which helps me understand what a client actually needs from a project.I’m curious about people and about technology. I enjoy meeting people from different walks of life, and I’m just as interested in new tools as in what earlier decades achieved. That’s why I still shoot on film now and then, alongside digital. Mixing old and new media keeps my work interesting and helps me tell better visual stories.

The Website Hero Video

A hero video plays at the top of your homepage, the first thing visitors see. In a few seconds it shows who you are and what you do, and it gives people a reason to keep scrolling.

Interviews /
Corporate Videos

Companies use video to explain what they do, introduce their people, train staff, or talk to customers. I produce interviews and corporate films that feel natural and look polished, so your team and your message come across clearly.

Music Videos

A good music video gives a song a world to live in and helps an artist reach new listeners. If you’re an emerging artist and want to work together, I’d like to hear from you.

PHOTOGRAPHY

Individual /
Artist Portraits

A good portrait is often the first thing people see of you, whether on a website, a program, or a press page. It should look like you at your best. I’ll work with you to make images that fit your work and personality, and that you’ll still want to use years from now.

Business Portraits / Employee Portraits

Consistent portraits make a team look like a team. When every photo shares the same style and lighting, your website, your LinkedIn profiles, and your pitch decks all look coherent, and employees feel properly represented. I’ll match the look to your brand guidelines, and I can photograph your whole team in one session.

Architecture

Good architecture photography shows what makes a building special: the details, the materials, the way light moves through the space. It also shows how the building sits in its surroundings. Whether the images are for a portfolio, a press release, or a sales brochure, they should make people want to see the place in person.

Real-Estate

Most buyers start their search online, so your photos are the viewing before the viewing. Bright, well-composed images make a property stand out in the listings and help people picture living there. Strong photos also tend to bring more inquiries, which can shorten the time to sale.

Architecture Stocktaking / Construction Progress Documentation

Regular photo documentation keeps everyone on the same page: architects, engineers, contractors, and clients all see the same thing at the same time. It records each stage of the build, which is useful later for maintenance, renovation, or marketing. It also lets clients follow what’s happening with their investment without having to visit the site.

Aerial Photography

Drones have made aerial photography far more accessible, but good results still depend on the person flying. I’ve worked as a professional drone operator for many years, so I know how to get the right angle safely and efficiently.
