And on my shoulders is our son Bela. We love the wide open spaces at Tempelhofer Feld \u2014 what better place to get a piggyback ride!<\/p>\n
I\u2019m drawn to wide open spaces and beautiful light \u2013 even in the middle of a big city. My favorite spot for a run or a leisurely stroll is along the Landwehr Canal. It winds lazily through Kreuzberg and somehow stays calm while everything around it is buzzing with life. This part of Berlin has my heart \u2013 colorful, diverse, and full of flavor. One day it\u2019s Kurdish flatbread straight from a clay oven, the next it\u2019s Lebanese falafel with hummus, or a bowl of Overnight Oats with a Flat White on the side.<\/p>\n
Before I became a wedding photographer, I trained as a journalist and storyteller. With a recorder, notebook, and camera in hand, I\u2019ve worked on stories in Yemen, the West Bank, and Azerbaijan. After finishing school in Worms on the Rhine, I headed off to Hamburg, Paris, and Bonn, where I studied political science and worked as a journalist before photography became my main path.<\/p>\n
Journalism defines the way I photograph. Authentically documented reportage with an eye for small details and great moments. Natural, relaxed portraits. Visual storytelling that captures elusive, fleeting, defining moments. My favorite thing about being a wedding photographer? Getting those shots that I know you’ll love looking at again and again \u2014 those pictures you\u2019ll love showing your kids.<\/p>\n
What else? I love good coffee \u2013 though these days it\u2019s always decaf. For the past few years I\u2019ve been eating a fully plant-based diet, but I certainly don\u2019t mind if you decide to serve lamb chops or pike-perch at your wedding dinner. On quiet Sunday mornings, my favorite thing is to take my bright red road bike and ride a loop around the city, when the streets are wonderfully empty. I also enjoy singing, playing the ukulele, and I\u2019m currently learning the art of clowning. Don\u2019t worry though \u2013 none of that will make an appearance at your wedding!<\/p>\n
When I\u2019m not photographing weddings, I love working with families<\/a> \u2013 always with the same documentary, storytelling approach \u2013 as well as creating business portraits and editorial features<\/a> for magazines and corporate clients. I\u2019m also deeply committed to personal projects such as \u00bbSonnenallee<\/a>\u00ab, the \u00bbUkulele Portraits<\/a>\u00ab, and my long-term project \u00bbWunschkind<\/a>\u00ab, in which I photograph families who have made the conscious choice to welcome a child with a disability.<\/p>\n\n\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hello!
