I am a photographer with a wide range of skills and experience in various areas of photography.
Photojournalism: With a keen eye for detail and a feel for the right moment, I capture stories that touch the heart and make you think. My pictures tell stories that often say more than words.
Photo documentation: I document events, events, architecture, and projects with precision and care. My photo documentations are not only visual records, but also valuable memories that capture the essence of the moment.
Drone photography: With a creative eye, I create stunning aerial shots with drones. This perspective makes it possible to see the world from a new and fascinating point of view. Drone pilot: As a certified drone pilot, I offer professional video flights that deliver impressive and dynamic shots. Whether for film productions, real estate or special occasions. My drone videos set new standards.
