About

Many stories. More pictures. For more than twelve years I have been telling other people's stories with a camera and, more recently, with AI as well.

I was 17 when the Chamber of Commerce called to ask where my trade licence was. I have been self-employed ever since.

What started in clubs and at events turned into campaigns for adidas, IKEA, PUMA, Hilton, Uber and Xiaomi. I was part of the media team of Olympic Team Austria at the Games in Beijing 2022 and Paris 2024, I work with Leica Camera Austria, and I co-founded the Vienna creative agency Perspective.

Today I work in three fields: photography, film and AI content. They have one thing in common. I see myself as a service provider, not an artist. My job is to make your story visible, not mine.

The story so far

Party?Never the goal!

I started out with a camera in clubs and at events, alongside school. The party was never the point. The pictures were.

Little sleep.Little money.All the more experience.

Nights for Hitradio Ö3, silent discos and the Almdudlerball. You learn to work fast, with whatever light there is, and to bring the picture home anyway.

PUMA

To the agency.And back again.

With the creative agency Perspective I produced campaigns for PUMA, Hilton, IKEA and Uber as co-founder and creative director. Bigger teams, bigger sets. And the realisation that I belong close to the picture.
