I'm a Magdeburg-based portrait photographer and director, doing documentary-, lifestyle-, and concert photography. So if you're from the area and would like to work with me or just meet up to grab a proper coffee or two, feel free to get in contact. Please don't hesitate asking me questions either. I hope you enjoy my photography.
Meet The Elijah. Worked myself through a couple of phone calls and mails to have some talks with them, yesterday. Gorgeous characters. Pretty honoured that they spared some time for having me.

A handful of shots I took at the latest show I shot in Western Germany, last week. Very talented folk, I can only tell. Great people I’d love to work with again.

Visited the smith’s tent at the market of a local medieval festival, yesterday. A friend of mine forged an amulet for a mutual friend. It took him a while, but he did good.

Shot a few sets at a show in Western Germany, yesterday. The band I was with did their line check a while after our arrival. Couple of guys I met and I were hangin’ at one’s mom’s and having some coffee in the meantime.

Rode into town with a fellow cyclist, yesterday. We talked some business with the owner of our go-to skateshop in the centre. Chilled outside afterwards. Good start of the day.

Photographed a show in a local villa where bands use to rehearse, last week. Got to work with two gorgeous german hardcore bands, who took the opportunity to stop by in my hometown to prevent an off-day on their current tour.

Stopped by in the attic apartment of a friend’s acquaintance, the other day.  Some friends met up there to party. Few of us went up onto the old rooftops.

Took one of the lads to walk over to the classiest skate shop in town, today. Did some business talks and packed some decent clothing for an upcoming shoot in my studio on the other side of the street.

Today, I rode out with a friend, in the morning. Did some decent cycling at the riverside and stopped by at a small cafè out there. Had our morning coffee and saddled back up to ride on.

Photographed a documentary of the grand opening of the new outdoor terrace for a client’s coffeehouse, yesterday. Lots of people, talks and drinks. I highly suggest a brief visit there, if you’re around town.

Delighted in some pizza with a friend, yesterday. Sat back in the late afternoon sun in front of the restaurant he works at. Processed those with a new set of filters I created today.

Shot some photographs of a friend’s tattoos, yesterday. Those are three outtakes I took particularly for the blog. Well he’s a true bear and I thought this lighting might suit his style.

Some captures of the shirts I received from bands I’ve worked with in the past few weeks. Pretty honoured that people immediately agreed and appreciate my work.

Got myself the latest catalogues of bicycle manufactures for this year. Snatched them on a visit in a local bike store with a friend, the other day.

Meet Show Your Teeth, a hardcore band from Austria. Photographed them last Saturday. Pretty honoured that those guys came all the way from Vienna to play a benefit show in my area.
