I am a dedicated and creative photographer with a wide experience of more than 20 years
Born and raised in Germany, I am now living in Haarlem, Netherlands.
In 1995 I first got in touch with photography. I did a 12-month internship at a renowned photography & model agency in Berlin. But somehow, I skipped my plans to proceed in the fashion and model branch. Anyway, pictures and photos have ever since been the most expressive way of art to me.
With many good friends dedicated to photography I always felt inspired by the great photography artwork they delivered and worked on. Somehow I always knew I wanted to go back to where I once saw my passion. Going on a trip to Asia, I was determined to indulge myself with a new camera. This was my first step and initial way back to what I do with great passion – photography!
My choice of camera is the Nikon D850. It is a masterpiece of DSLR full frame camera and best suitable for wedding/event, fashion and landscape photography. It delivers best high resolution imaging and immaculate results. To me the Nikon D850 is comprehensive, fun to work with and gives a broad band of features that I like within a camera.

Why You Should Choose Me As Your Wedding Photographer
If you're reading this article most likely you're searching for a photographer to cover your big & very special day.
So you may ask yourself why should you choose me to be your wedding photographer & that's an excellent question! Why choose me over hundreds of other photographers that are listed in my area? For starters I hope you are drawn to my work & style of photography, I put all of myself into my work, treating every wedding individually so that I can offer you the best documentation of your wedding style, venue & overall aesthetic. I do have guidelines but I do not limit my approach to YOUR day, keeping my client in mind so that I can capture every important detail.
Something else I also offer that other photographers may not, is the rights to print at your leisure. Once I've edited your photos I upload them to an online gallery that's been made specifically for you, you're allowed to view, download & print your images. Also along with that avenue of receiving your images I supply one USB with your photos, I do highly recommend you use SPECIFIC labs for printing or I cannot guarantee the quality of your photos. Not all labs are created equal & if you happen to go to a very cheap & unqualified lab your images will not come out looking very nice. So I give recommendations to quality printing labs, most of them are very reasonably priced & the end result will be satisfactory!
I try very hard to get my couples a sneak peek preview within the first week after the wedding & have their full gallery edited & sent out within 30 days. That is not a guarantee but I know my clients are anticipating all the wonderful photos taken so I make it priority to get them done as quick as I can. I do also have other sessions & wedding going so I ask my clients to keep that in mind, I truly care about the image turn around time!
Another very important element that a lot of couples overlook is their compatibility with the photographer, trust me it's extremely important! I'm easy to get along with, I come to your wedding knowing it's your day & I'm there to put all of my effort in, to capture those beautiful moments & details you've worked so hard to bring to life. I'm passionate about my work & I'm always looking for ways to improve so my clients will never have my second best. I will not try to run your wedding, weddings have a funny way of throwing their own curve balls sometimes & that can be quite stressful to the couple & family. I do not want to be any added stress by pushing for how I think it should go, I will make suggestions during the day, for example (stand here, this would look better, the lighting isn't good here, let's try this photo, etc) basically I'm going to be your photographer, I will suggest things & try to guide each situation into the best possible arrangement for your photos to turn out great!
I love photographing weddings & because I actually love it, it shows up in my work & my demeanor. I'm grateful when a couple chooses me to capture their love story, making it my priority to document the real emotion from that day to be treasured for years to come. I want you to feel like you have a friend as well as a photographer, even in the months, weeks, days leading you to your wedding. I want you to feel at ease during this process & I work very hard to give that comfort to my clients!
So if this didn't answer your questions & you're still wondering why you should choose me, I would love for you to contact me & we can talk about any of your concerns. I want you to feel sure about your decision of choosing me!
Why You Should Choose Me As Your Portrait Photographer
My sessions are very relaxed but focussed. I see a maximum of two people per day to give us plenty of time to work through and get what you need. Prior to any shooting I am offering a brief conversation and exchange about your ideas, your wishes, and requirements. On a shooting with me You are the most important subject and the entire session should revolve around You!
Each session starts with a cup of tea and a chat to give you a chance to settle in to the session and for me to find out who you are, what determines your personally, and how we can express it with some breathtaking amazing photos. We’ll look at your tops, discuss hair and make up, make some choices then get to work.
I think a big part of making your photo session work is building a relationship between me and you. People who will see your photos often will only see this one headshot for a few seconds so it’s vital your portrait lifts of the page or screen – that you’re making eye contact with the viewer of the image – because these days a headshot has to be striking at thumbnail size. And that’s what I base my sessions around, engaging with you so you’re engaged in the photo. It’s about a cracking image and producing striking pictures that show that off.
I work hard to make sure my sessions are fun.
