About

After a classical education as an advertising photographer, I spent some months as a volunteer in Afghanistan in 2009. Here, I decided to commit to working for NGOs professionally. Today, I document projects for aid organizations worldwide, operating as an experienced “One Man Crew” for photo and videography. Whether in Bolivia at an altitude of 4300 meters or in the rainforest of the Philippines, my equipment is robust, light and small enough to produce the best image quality for your communication media in any place on earth.
