Welcome to my website!
I’m a photographer from Bayreuth, Germany, where I live with my wife and two kids. Action sports have always been a big part of my life. Growing up, I loved to practice many forms of action sports like snowboarding, skiing, mountain biking and climbing. As my rather poor performances in these activities required me to find a very good excuse, I was beyond happy to discover my passion for photography, which allowed me to pin crashes in backcountry pow on „all that heavy camera gear that threw me off-balance“. In rather stark contrast to my university studies (biology, chemistry and sports), it also let me live out my inner creative and anarchic child with a profound love of nature.
In my photos I like to use natural light to capture the true mood of a moment, but I also play around with flashes or other technical gimmicks if I feel that it adds to the picture. I’m aiming for a documentary style in my shots and I’m not a fan of too much post production. I think it’s safe to say that I am very proactive in organizing projects and exploring all kinds of crazy ideas – thanks to all the athletes I work with for putting up with all these ideas of mine and fine tuning them with your expertise! 🙂
My newest project is a 75 camera Bullet Time setup – I don’t have too much stuff on this site yet, but feel free to check out the freezestylers IG account in the meantime!
I’m always on the lookout for interesting stories, the biggest stunts and that next magic moment when a special image can be captured. In the meantime, have fun exploring my galleries – if you want to see more, just let me know!
Cheers from Bayreuth!
