Documentary Photography


One of my biggest inspirations has always been photography's ability to stop time and reveal what the naked eye cannot see. A photo can speak louder than words.

I have had an emotional roller-coaster ride with certain aspects of my life, especially since moving to South Africa from Switzerland and that is one of the reasons for my great passion for documentary photography.

Nothing brings me greater joy than photographing people for who they are. Documentary photography captures the reality, the truth and one image can change the world.

It's not what you look at that matters, it's what you see.

A Start Of a Creative New Journey

Who am I? 

A question I have been asking myself over the years. I feel like an unfinished puzzle. A question which can drive me mad but at the same time makes life so interesting and special. And in the end life is not about finding yourself, it is about creating yourself. 


I grew up in Switzerland in a very comfortable environment and enjoying a uncomplicated life. All was good until I realized there is so much more to life. I wanted my own adventure and to be different than others, taking a risk without knowing where I will end up. And that was what I did... I left my home for Africa. Lots of new challenges filled with beautiful experiences, but not always easy. In Africa I found another piece for my life puzzle... Photography!  I would like to share what inspires me and share some of my work as a photographer...


Enjoy!
