Get to know me a little.

I enjoy philosophizing about life – with the art of not taking everything too seriously and being able to laugh at myself and everything else. I love thermal baths and, above all, spending time in the sauna.

With my dog Nora, I like to travel in the camper van – whether by a river, at a lake, or in the mountains. I love that feeling of freedom.

Just like with music, which has always been a big part of my life. While editing photos, for example, I enjoy listening to Moritz Krämer or Alexi Murdoch.

I’m a sun child at heart: I love light, harmony, good vibes, humor, respect, and kindness. Pizza and chocolate like me too! ;)

I’m happy to follow you across Germany, Switzerland, and worldwide – wherever your stories take place.

I’m fascinated by rustic landscapes, rocky cliffs, towering mountains, untamed nature, wide vistas, rivers, lakes, and the sea.

My dog Nora is a lively girl who enjoys life to the fullest. With her social and energetic nature, she’s a real whirlwind – and that’s exactly why I love her even more. :)

Whether in Andalusia, southern France, Italy, or Switzerland, I love traveling with my camper.

I love to travel and enjoy discovering new people, cultures, and landscapes.

I find vinyl records, cassette players, analog cameras, and the like more than just cool.

In my free time, I enjoy painting or creating photo collages, for example.

I’ve been photographing for 12 years now, and for the past 6 years, I’ve been working full-time as a wedding photographer in Freiburg, Basel, and worldwide.

This work fulfills me deeply, and I wouldn’t want to miss it for anything!

I came to photography through street photography. I was fascinated by capturing life as it really is – unposed and honest.

This approach is still reflected in my work today. For me, weddings are more than just beautiful setups. It’s about anticipating and capturing the essence of the moment.

That’s why I love wedding reportage so much! The real stuff, you know what I mean.

If you choose to work with me, just be yourselves on your day. Don’t feel shy around me or the camera, and most importantly – have fun! ;)

Have a look around my site, check out my Highlights folder, and feel free to get in touch with me without any obligation.

You can just use “you” with me.

To my Swiss friends: I also understand Swiss German ;)
I have several Swiss friends and even some relatives. I live not far from Basel and am often in Switzerland – both for work and privately.

I also speak a bit of Italian, as my mother is from Sicily.

I’m excited to learn more about you and your plans.

Cheers & chat soon,
Chris
