Who my clients are

As a photographer, I specialise in a unique, emotive way to capture travel photos. It’s a mix of documentary style, editorial & commercial work with a focus on storytelling and capturing emotions, an element of careful orchestration and staging and a sprinkle of art.

At this intersection, I work with clients in the hotel industry, tourism boards and global brands. I am not just hired as photographer, but also have become a brand ambassador for Mercedes-Benz‘ “She’s Mercedes” female empowerment program in Austria as well as part of Nikon Europe’s official creator program.

I am a mentor and jury member of Nikon’s Female Facets women’s empowerment program and have held countless workshops for female photographers who want to carve out their niche and find their voice.

Almanac Palais Vienna

The Austrian luxury hotel brand hired me to be the main photographer for their brand new property on Vienna’s iconic ring street. Since the first photo shoot I have returned for productions on a regular basis – from photographing the new summer menu to the terrace, the spa and the bar.

Classic Zambia

This collection of owner-run safari camps in Zambia has been one of my partners since my first Zambia trip in 2019. In 2023 I returned for a fam trip and ran my first guided tour here in 2024. I will return in 2025! The ethos of Classic Zambia is a perfect match to my philosophy when it comes to traveling. Their work revolves around socially conscious, conservation focused safaris that promise immersive wilderness experiences with expert guides and a family spirit.

German National Tourist Board

In the last years the German National Tourist Board hired me to produce a variety of different stories all centered around sustainable nature tourism in lesser known regions of the country. The first trip brought me to the Prignitz and Uckermark region and the second one to the natural treasures of Saxony-Anhalt, the third trip led me on a house boat in Brandenburg. One thing unites all the trips: The idea to #stayalittlebitlonger and extend the classic Germany city trips in nature.

Mercedes-Benz

Working together since 2019 our collaboration has deepened throughout the years. What started as a photo production for She’s Mercedes on Madeira has turned into a brand ambassador role for the She’s Mercedes program between 2021 and 2023 in Austria.

Nikon

In 2018 I was among the first to work together with Nikon to promote their new mirrorless Z series. The partnership has grown since and I’m grateful to be a part of the official Nikon Europe creator program representing the Austrian market and my role in the #NikonFemaleFacets mentorship program as a mentor and jury member.

The Luxury Collection

After staying in one of their iconic houses during a press trip the lead agency noticed my work and assigned me to photograph three other The Luxury Collection properties since. I photographed their landmark hotels in Prague and Milan as well as the famous Hotel Bristol in Vienna for the 130 year anniversary.

Magical Kenya

Upon launching the new German-speaking Social Media accounts for Magical Kenya – the official tourism board of Kenya – I was invited to return to Kenya to work on a series of travel stories from the Maasai Mara all the way to Tsavo West and the Kuruwitu area at the Indian Ocean.
