I am a freelance photographer specialized in landscape, lifestyle and documentary from Hannover, Germany. Exhibited in Berlin by EyeEm as one of its best photographers in 2017 and 2019 in the category “Great Outdoors”.
My work as a geographer, landscape scientist and photographer takes me to many unique places around Europe and the world - always inspired by the beauty of nature, especially the rough landscapes of the north. My focus is on fine art and documentary photography of atmospheric landscapes and intense scenery.
As a B.Sc. Geographer and M.Sc. Landscape Scientist I perceive the landscape in the context of their genesis and development. For myself photography is not just a photo – it’s a never recurring moment.
My source of inspiration: Thomas Heaton, Bruce Percy, Benjamin Hardman, Jonas Rask, Kevin Mullins.
