I am a German-American photographer who works for editorial and corporate clients. My stories and on-location portraits are featured in major international print and online publications; my personal projects resulted in four acclaimed photo books and over twenty solo exhibitions in museums, galleries and other art institutions including prestigious photo festivals like PHOTOVILLE in New York, VISA POUR L'IMAGE in Perpignan, TRIENNALE DER PHOTOGRAPHIE in Hamburg and the XPOSURE International Photography Festival in Sharjah. My work won several awards from Communication Arts, American Photography, ASMP, IPA and LensCulture. I feel very honored and grateful for having received the Global Focus Project Award for my project "Keep Going New York !!" from Xposure Photo Festival in 2024.
