My photos bring companies, organisations, business people and bands to the forefront. They gain visibility and benefit from the professional photos they can use to communicate on their website, in annual reports, for their advertising, on social media and in the press. Through my many years of experience in marketing with leading international market leaders, I know which images are necessary for campaigns and am happy to provide creative advice to my clients.

Appreciation and respect for people (and nature) are elementary for me. And that's exactly what my clients feel. I don't just "shoot", I get into the soul and the wishes of the photographed. I think myself into them with my heart, communicate with them, even if I don't speak their language. And I put myself at their eye level.

Off-road, I bump along a narrow track and end up at a gigantic viewpoint. A woman sits there in the strong wind in the sun and sells all kinds of knick-knacks and jewellery. She smiles friendly and impresses me with her incredible charisma. So much power, so much energy. Wow. I don't know what she has already experienced, but I feel that she will survive even the toughest times. She is tough and will never give up. Full of dignity and pride, she will fight. We exchange a few words without speaking each other's language, I ask her for permission to take a photo. She nods, I capture her aura with the camera, I don't care about the beautiful landscape at that moment. The woman fascinates me much more. I show her the photos I have taken. She beams happily at me and thanks me. I thank her even more and finally we lie warmly in each other's arms.

Tourists appear next to me. They quickly take a landscape photo in not the best light, get back in the car and are gone. They did not give the woman a glance. It makes me sad that a precious human being can be overlooked and ignored. I imagine how the woman must feel at those moments and tears come to my eyes. She proudly walks away, pointing with her hand to a small stone house where she keeps her sales treasures and which gives her shadow. But at that moment, her donkey wants to go inside through the doorway and she has to push him away quickly vehemently. We say goodbye and I think of her for a long, long time. The clouds accompany my thoughts.
