For more than 20 years I've been capturing moments that others overlook.
A good picture doesn't show what was – it shows what remains.
On the road since 2003 between , , and – sometimes all in one day. What interests me is still the same: a picture that doesn't just look good but also tells something.
Schloss Grafenegg, an ARD prizewinner in custom-tailored haute couture, and a photographer who has known her since she was ten. What began as an assignment felt more like an outing all day long — complete with significantly too much equipment and a lens with the weight of a small dog. The whole story is in the journal.
A jazz legend who masters more instruments than most people can name — and has had more adventures than the town of Mank has house numbers. A shoot with a man who can turn even a yacht into an anecdote. More in the journal.
Product photography of the Schagerl "Raweni" — James Morrison Edition trumpet. Schagerl product photography is a core part of my work, created exclusively for Schagerl. As the Creative Director, I ensure each image reflects the quality and craftsmanship of their instruments.
My most-photographed model, a years-long collaboration and a makeup artist who carried all of it with the necessary humour. Fine-art photography lives on trust — and here it had grown over many years. The whole story is in the journal.
Product photography for Theory 11 — the New York-based premium playing card label that has redefined the world of cards, endorsed by magicians like David Blaine and frequently featured in Hollywood productions.

You have a question about a picture, an idea, or simply want to say hello – write to me.
I usually reply within 24 hours, often faster, sometimes – when I'm in the studio – a little later.
