A bit about me
AS A PHOTOGRAPHY
I’m an American photographer based in Munich, Germany, specializing in portrait, lifestyle, and empowering intimate photography. My work is all about helping people see themselves with confidence — whether through timeless portraits, expressive lifestyle sessions, or sensual imagery.
My goal is to help you see yourself as others already do — radiant, confident, and real. I offer private photo sessions across Munich and the surrounding areas, with services available in both English and German.
AS AN ARTIST
Starts with a photo: I use creative techniques such as slow shutter and camera movement to creative impressionistic images. Sometimes multiple photos are overlayed to create a composite image. No AI generation is used. All images were taken by me.
From photo to artwork: Images are printed on various paper and metal surfaces depending on the desired look and feel. Acrylic inks and texture are then hand painted onto the photo to complement the image. Sometimes photo prints are cut into strips and woven together like fabric, or covered in mesh fabric. Vintage, hand-painted frames are often integrated into the design.
