How it all started...

I have always been passionate about art. When I was about five my father introduced me to painting with oil and by the age of eleven my parents had given me my first camera.

Coming to New Zealand...
I was born in Germany where I did an apprenticeship in advertising before I came to New Zealand in 1997.

 
When I arrived here I followed my passion for photography, working with a commercial photographer for about eighteen months. During that time I was managing the studio and photographing anything from portraits, functions and parties to buildings, landscapes and still-life pictures for brochures and magazines.

In 1999 I started working in a team with two other photographers. One of our biggest projects was the America's Cup in Auckland, which we covered for magazines in Britain, America and Germany.

Occasionally I was asked to take photographs of a wedding- but it wasn't until I started preparing my own wedding that I really got enthusiastic about wedding photography. I find it fantastic - and a privilege - to share such an important and happy event, and to be the one to put the smiles on everybody's faces when they see the results of my work.

Today...
Today I have my own business. It is my mission to fulfil my clients' needs by offering creativity, high quality and a very personal service. I always take the time to listen to your ideas and I guarantee that your photographs are going to be as individual as you are.
