I was born 1967 in Germany. Creativity has always played a major role in my life. I remember vividly finding my grandfathers box of photographs and catching fire for the medium. My roots are in journalism, I have studied mass communication and worked as photography assistant, for newspapers, television and the radio. After meeting my husband, a fashion photographer, we decided to team up and the last 25 years I have been working in the photography business. Being on photo-trips for most of the year, I hardly took pictures on off days, but I always carried a mobile phone and till I preserved that playfulness, I am shooting quite a lot with it. Medium format is my second choice, its depths in colors or tones is incomparable and opens a universe of possibilities to work with the data. I am a big fan of black and white photography and minimalism, but I appreciate all facets and love to be inspired by so many wonderfully talented photographers.
