If you could be anywhere right now, where would that be?

If i could, I would wish to be somewhere for some time, where I could think undisturbed about the direction of the next bit of work and how to realize it. Just ponder and spin around on a lonely beach for a few days and swim in the blue water every now and then.

What themes do you pursue in your work?

Well, in my professional work before the pandemic, car photography was mostly in the foreground. The pandemic changed a lot. I had a lot of time to think. and in the future, especially in my personal work, I will consider landscape, architecture and still life more again. Explore formal and textural symbioses in this field of tension. which will certainly have an impact on my professional work.

What items/treasures live on your desk, year round?

I can't really find any treasures around my desk. Here are a few hard drives, cables and a bottle of elderberry juice. What I need to work right now. I like it tidy at my place. The real treasure I see when I look out the window in front of me, I look into our green garden.

What work do you most enjoy doing?

Creating pictures. That means to stand on the set after a perfect preparation and to create the pictures we have thought about beforehand in cooperation with my team and in cooperation with the creative people of the agency. Teamwork is the work I like :)
