Thanks to @mascha_sonnenschein for all of those amazingly creative shootings we did together in the last 12 months. This time we tried some storytelling in an old diesel locomotive in Bonn. You can see the whole Series in my Instagram Account.
Thanks a lot to @uncomplicated_mery who came the long way from Stuttgart to Bonn for this Shooting. We met in an old monastery ruin in Königswinter for some dramatic-romantic shots.
Really loved the combination of the smokey eyes and those incredibly beautiful freckles of @yve_ninety_two ! That shooting was a lot of fun!
Devotion: Ancient Chinese Culture is older than 5000 years. Chinese cultural history has enormous diversity and variety. The sophisticated Chinese civilization was rich in the Arts and Sciences, elaborate Painting and Printing techniques, and delicate pottery and sculpture. Chinese architectural traditions were much respected all over the world. Chinese language and literature, philosophy, and politics are still reckoned as a strong influence. Chinese culture managed to retain its unique identity until the advent of Western culture in the mid-19th century.
Chinese Religion, Philosophy, and Politics: Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism have left a collective and lasting impression on Chinese culture and tradition. Confucianism propagated “Ren” (Love) and “Li” (rituals), signifying respect for society and social hierarchy. Taoism advocated the controversial philosophy of inaction. Buddhism emphasized on the need to attain self- emancipation through good deeds.
An Amazing Mary
Nikon D850 + 85mm 1.4, I used 2 Profoto Lights, a huge 150 L Silver diffused umbrella from above and a beauty dish on her front side to shape her face and body and hive her a painterly look.
One of my favorite photos. What we used as a scarf was her cardigan. Sometimes you just have to try it. Thank you, Burcu. Makeup by Afiza Alija.
Wiola and I started our Shooting in the old town of Zuerich. When we passed the entrance of this bar we realized, that light conditions were fantastic. Thank you Wiola for this lovely shooting!
It was a day when I decided to play with flowers. My makeup up artist created an elegant flower collar. We were trying a few different looks with a smile, more romantic, drama, etc. And here we go this one was selected as a winner.
Portrait of Lily Anne Harrison and captured the essence of her character. Sho this with the Canon 5D Mark IV using a one light source. Balancing the shadows and light to give her face a nice blend.
Cécile (Model) and I developed a portrait idea for Christmas. As she needed to be almost naked, we did a warm-up where this portrait came into existence. I liked the look of her sweater and thought it would nicely incorporate it as a contrasting element.
Shot with a Hasselblad X1D in my photo studio in Switzerland.
The mermaid in the water is Valentine. It is around 6.30 am and the sun is barely rising over the Gulf of Saint-Tropez. The colors are really beautiful at this hour.
This photo was taken on a wedding day. The room the couple was getting ready in wasn't flattering, so I wanted to find a way to document this part of their day, without all the clutter in the background. So with a little extra light and some posing, this photo is what I created.
This image is my favorite one from a recent glamour shoot in my studio in Sydney. My model was a beautiful Nevena who was amazing throughout the whole session. I specifically wanted to try some black and white looks, using my dark grey seamless paper background and two strobes. Working with Nevena was a fantastic experience and we both love the outcome.
"Wandering under the sky". I used a portable flash system with an 18cm reflector with a grid to lighten the model's face as much as possible. The flash was being placed about 5m away from the model - just outside the picture.

When we were children, everything was warm, sunny, and cheerful. Nothing is fatal and only games are thought of. I would give anything for this carelessness.
Many thanks to @gleyrybatista from Wuppertal for so many incredible shots. We improvised the entire shooting. That's what makes this photo so unique.
Portrait of a beautiful model Beatriz. I took this photo in my studio using soft-box light and natural window light. Makeup and hair also done by me.
An insight from the shooting with Anna Mosch @Anna_mo.17. We take this picture in Hüinghausen/ Germany, at an old railway station and yes! this eye color is really real.
The Elegant and Glory. “A beautiful woman is a woman who can be herself. A woman who smiles all the time and never cares about what others think. A woman who is dying inside but is strong enough to let go of the pain and create a happy atmosphere for everyone. A woman who is not exactly sexually attractive but her face and personality can make your heart melt. A woman who is talented, smart and so different from every other girl.”
"Smoky" is the very first Sicilian FisherMan Portrait realized as a Fine art Print during My first Exhibition in an Art Gallery and has soon become a best seller of my fine art prints worldwide.
