Photo Tours with heart ...

Do you also love discovering unknown countries and cultures? Diving deep into moments and capturing them on camera? Then come with me on my adventurous photographic travels through Latin America and Asia. My passion for travel photography has led me to a variety of different places on both continents. I had the chance to meet the last Mayans in the jungles of Mexico, breathe in the clear air of the far-reaching Bolivian plateau, discover the cultural diversity of Vietnam and experience many more adventures ...

In my portfolio you can learn more about the destinations I visited worldwide.

Travel photography is a medium for me to connect with people while living my greatest passion at the same time. I would like to share this passion with you and warmly invite you to my photo tours around Mexico.

Unfortunately, traveling to distant countries was no longer a matter  during the pandemic. Photography has always been a medium for me to discover new and unknown things in distant worlds and capture them in my pictures. The limited travel opportunities have led me to focus more on things in my surroundings, which has greatly increased my passion for my home, the Ruhr area. Since spring 2020, I have been passionately photographing the industrial heritage sites, slag heaps and lost places of the Ruhr metropolis.

The Ruhrpott, as it was called by its inhabitants in the days of mining, is no longer gray, but has grown into “the metropolis for industrial culture” in Germany. Today, former collieries and steelworks merge with nature to form architectural works of art and provide completely new perspectives on the former “coal pot”. From dusk onwards, you can experience the region in a very special ambience as elaborate light installations illuminate the buildings and slag heaps in a colorful way.

If you are just as enthusiastic about the history of the Ruhr region and the unique photo motifs of the industrial culture and lost places located here, then join me on one of my Lost Place Photo Tour through the Ruhr metropolis.

This is my video for the exhibition of the "Siena International Photo Awards 2018". Here you can find out more about me and the story behind the scenes of my picture "Floating Market". It received the first place in the category "Splash of Colors".
