Photography is love
Photography is art
Photography is emotion
Photography is my way to share my world with you

Self-portrait: Me, Myself & I {2009-07-20}

"Photography is a way of feeling, of touching, of loving. What you have caught on film is captured forever... it remembers little things, long after you have forgotten.”
- Aaron Siskind


I´m a self-taught photographer by heart and soul. I have photography in blood and for me photography is not only a passion but also an obsession. I love to get carried away while taking pictures and it also excites me to be more creative and imaginative. As for me photography is kind of a diary. I try to display my world with my images, try to think in images and make you a part of my thougths, of my photography world.

My inspiration often comes from my personal inner world: my feelings, fears and beliefs, hopes and dreams; all of these fueled by music, movies, books and of course traveling! Of course I am inspired on a daily basis with the creativity and engagement people bring to their images here on flickr and I love to get inspired by so many awesome artists and photographers!

What I wish for the people I work together with is, to build a special connection and to create something real and fancy together. With my photography I want to capture people like they really really are! I want to catch moments and memories like they happend within a heartbeat but which will be captured forever and never forgotten...

Equipment I use:
Canon 7D, Panasonic Lumix LX-5

**************************************************
Note: Sorry if I end up blocking you. It will only happen for a few reasons, one of which is if you do not have any pictures to share and you are favoriting or adding me as a contact. This is especially the case if you do not have an avatar but just have the default one next to your name.

Oh and I am tired of these glittery award groups, so I left all of them and will usually delete them. Apart from that I don´t like this "add 1, comment 3" kind of groups anymore! There are so many great and creative photographers out there. So everyone who deserves a comment will definitely get one!
