I was very pleased when Tobias Hildebrandt and Florian Kopf asked me mid of March if I would like to participate in an exhibition taking place end of May in Vienna! mich Mitte März gefragt haben ob ich Ende Mai an einer Gemeinschaftsausstellung in Wien teilnehmen möchte. Of Course I said “yes” spontaneously!

As of today there is not much time left. Once the photos have been selected and agreed with Florian and Tobias, both curating the exhibition, the photos could be produced. In the meantime the photos have been produced, signed and delivered to Florian. So nothing should go wrong. The promotions have be started as well.

Although I know that Vienna might not be in your neighbourhood, I would be more then happy to meet you in Vienna during the opening of the exhibiton.

Maybe you are in Vienna by co-incidence or you just take the opportunity to stay in Vienna for a couple of days …

Please find some details below …

Last Saturday it was that time again! After my first wedding shooting having been very early this year – mid of March already, Juliane & Marko ‘officially’ marked the start of the wedding season 2014! They got married in the beautiful Constanzia Forst Weiherhof in Wächtersbach. Last minute – during the ceremony – they made the decision in favour of Marko’s surname. Although the weather not being really supportive, this could not influence the most beautiful day in their lives! Convince yourselves. Check out the little pre-view …

Besides some nice moments in the Rhein Main Region my street photography in Q1 2014 was driven by some trips to Berlin and Istanbul.

Enjoy my personal best of streets selection taken in Q1 2014!

Many thanks to all visitors and friends making the vernissage last friday to such a success. We did never expect so many guests! My special thanks to Christoph Breitwieser, curator at the Museum Bensheim, for his fantastic introductory speech, building bridges between both metropolis as well as between the 4 photographers. Although many thanks to my colleagues Christian Zwiener, Mateo Hamann, Oliver Heiligrath and Philip Kistner and last but not least to the gallery owner Thomas von Salomon. It’s great to know each other!

I have been in Berlin again …

… met with Ronny Behnert, Frank Knaack and Sebastian Schmidt – each of them great photographers – and of cause took some street photographs. In Berlin the governmental destrict, the main station and the holocaust monument are part of the ‘mandatory’ program for photographers. For the first time I visited the Jewish Museum Berlin. Frank Knaack led me to THE tunnel, which is known by many Streetphotographers in the meantime. Since my youth already I haven’t been in the International Congress Centre Berlin. Unfortunately it was not possible to access the ICC itself due to a fair.

Enjoy my little photo selection!
