PORTFOLIO
In the words of Helmut Newton: »The first 10,000 shots are your worst«. I’ve now made it well past that number. This is an attempt to give some structure to this massive collection. Meanwhile, destiny has gotten me involved in a bunch of projects over the last years and here's a selection of my favourite ones.
»FUCK COVID - STAY WILD AT HEART«
It was a special pleasure for me to accompany the livestream performances at Berlin club Wild at Heart during the Covid pandemic. I’ve collected these vivid portraits of bands and artists in my project »FUCK COVID - STAY WILD AT HEART«.
BERLIN’S MARKETS: OUR NEXT RENDEZVOUS
You could find me regularly on Berlin's markets - from Prenzlauer Berg to Neukölln, from farmer's markets at Maybachufer or Kollwitzplatz to art markets like »Berliner Kunstmarkt« at Museumsinsel or legendary »Markt im Mauerpark«.
»RICHARDS KINDERMUSIKLADEN«
One catchy tune follows the next in Richard's children's music. He loves his instruments and it's great fun to photograph him making music.
TRAVEL
Every now and then I escape from the big, bad city of Berlin and unwind on the other side of the world. It's great to explore other cultures and communities.
PORTRAIT
I love black and white style for portrait photography. No outfits or makeup to distract from the essence of the person in front of the camera.
»Knete Gin«
It’s a spiced world and Berlin spiced »Knete Gin« brought some pepper into my life. In the last years I snapped commercial pics for delicious »Knete Gin«.
EXHIBITION
Proud as Punch to have had the opportunity to present my favorite photos in three exhibitions so far. And there were even VIPs at the vernissage...
Hipstography
Mobile photography is my second childhood and Hipstamatic my favorite toy. Since 2015 I’m proud to be a Hipstographer.
»ZUM STARKEN AUGUST«
Berlin is colourful. And it should stay that way! Portraits of performers of the livestream from Berlin burlesque bar »Zum starken August«.
»Rotz ‘N’ Roll Radio« OPENAIR
Not only my kids love musician Kai Lüftner, but I do too. On Children's Day 2018, confetti flew at his big »Rotz ‘n’ Roll Radio« Show at Parkbühne Wuhlheide.
»EAT LIPSTICK«
An evening with the awesome band »Eat Lipstick« during their concert at Wild at Heart in Berlin in December 2017. And I thought punk was dead…
»Television Knockout«
In 2008 I co-founded the Berlin based punk band »Television Knockout«. Punk, rock, grunge, underground, garage - lots of words to pigeonhole music. I just enjoyed being a drummer.
YANNIK FOUNDATION | Y_SPACE »LIGHTs, camera, actioN« EVENT
In November 2016, I was part of the first Y_Space Original Creators workshop for mobile photography at Berlin's old NSA spy station at Teufelsberg.
PHOTO of the DaY
I'm hooked on taking pictures wherever I go and my camera is always handy. So it’s easy to feed Instagram with the photo of the day. You’re invited to leave a like.
