About
I am a photographer and photojournalist based in Zurich, Switzerland with 15+ years experience in photography and visual communication.
Shortly after graduating from a business school at the age of 18 in Switzerland, I decided to move to New York City where I lived and worked for seven years and studied photography at the City University of New York and the New York Institute of Photography.
At the age of 21, I interned with fashion / celebrity photographers Markus Klinko and Indrani and worked with international models for GK Reid, Nigel Barker and Tatler Magazine.
In August 2016, after getting my degree in Photography / Photojournalism, I moved back to Switzerland to work for the Swiss media, worked internationally as a cabin crew member and photographer and worked in a photography studio in Zurich where I taught photography to students and customers. I am specialized in portrait photography (clients include Forbes Magazine, local celebrities etc) and worked in marketing (Sony, Canon, Fujifilm, Nikon, Olympus etc).
I currently work as a Digital out of Home Advertisements Operator (Photo/Video) in Zurich and welcome inquiries regarding exhibitions, photo shoots, fine art print sales and editorials.
