WHO’S TAKING A LOOK AT YOUR INSTAGRAM PAGE WILL SEE LOT’S OF MALE PHOTOSHOOTS. WHAT DO YOU LIKE MOST ABOUT SHOOTING MALE MODELS?
WE’RE REALLY HAPPY THAT YOU’VE PRODUCED THIS EDITORIAL WITH THOMAS TOGETHER. YOU WORKED TOGETHER BEFORE – WHAT’S SPECIAL ABOUT WORKING WITH THOMAS? Thomas has a very modern, strong yet delicate look.

to question the norm.
One thing led to another, more agencies and magazines started picking up and it literally became my trademark. One could say: i didn’t really choose male photography, male photography found me.
AS THE WORLDWIDE SITUATION IS PRETTY HARD RIGHT NOW, WE’RE WONDERING HOW YOU’RE FEELING ABOUT THE SITUATION AND HOW IT IS FOR YOU AS PHOTOGRAPHER?
WHILE PLANNING A NEW SHOOT, WHAT ARE THE FIRST THINGS YOU DO BEFORE SHOOTING DAY? I find inspirations in everything. In order to have a successful shoot, planning is very crucial. Once I have a vision for a shoot, ill find moods and locations to make sure everyone involved is on the same page. Next step would be to find the right model for the job, reach out to my team and make

on life. It literally brings us back to what‘s import-
DID THE RECENT SITUATION CHANGE SOMETHING ABOUT HOW YOU’RE PRODUCING EDITORIALS, PLAN PHOTOSHOOTINGS OR WORK WITH CLIENTS? There‘s more planning involved nowadays. Everything changed. Usually it‘s a very social industry. People get very close, there lots of hugs, shared meals and joking around. For quite some time there‘s wasn’t any shoots at all. No-one was able to work. A lot of people got layed off. Even though things are slowly getting better but the vibe completely change and there‘s a lot of restrictions still. Everyone is very careful. Everyone has to wear masks,no more hugs etc. Taking care of each other and being reasonable is the number one rule atm.
AS PHOTOGRAPHER YOU’RE TRAVELLING A LOT. WHAT’S A THING YOU NEED TO FEEL LIKE HOME? WHERE’S YOUR SPECIAL “HAPPY PLACE”? I always try to bring my own team. Its the people i love and respect that make me feel like home.
WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE PRODUCTION SO FAR? Theres no a particular production but seeing my work on a billboard or printed always feels like christmas morning ;-)
