about
I'm a photographer and filmmaker based in Leipzig, working across Germany – especially in Berlin, Munich, and Heidelberg – for clients in culture, corporate, and the spaces in between.
I hold a diploma in artistic photography from the Academy of Fine Arts Leipzig, a Master in Visual Strategies & Stories from Burg Giebichenstein University of Arts and Design, and a Bachelor in Communication Design. From 2013 to 2015, I was resident photographer at Theater & Orchester Heidelberg. In 2018, I co-founded the architecture and video project OCAP together with Jakob Argauer.
