Still one of my favorite places in Berlin!
Walking through the iconic covered pathway of the Oberbaumbrücke feels like stepping through Berlin’s history.

Connecting Kreuzberg and Friedrichshain over the River Spree, the bridge once marked the border between East and West Berlin during the Cold War. Today, it’s one of the city’s most recognizable landmarks famous for its red brick towers, gothic architecture, and endless urban vibes.

This pedestrian walkway, with its distinctive yellow ceiling and symmetrical arches, offers one of the coolest perspectives in the city. Straight ahead: Friedrichshain. Below: the Spree. Around you: pure Berlin atmosphere.

Standing in the heart of the world! 🗽✨

There’s an electrifying energy that you can only find right here at Times Square. Looking up at the iconic North Side with that massive Coca-Cola display glowing against the perfect August sky....it honestly feels like being inside a movie. 🎬
New York City in the summer is something else. Yes, it’s bustling, and yes, the heat is real, but there’s a certain magic when the sky is this clear blue and the city’s pulse is at its peak.

The North End (near 47th Street) is one of my favorite spots to just stop and take it all in. You’ve got the famous red stairs behind you and the towering screens of 2 Times Square right in front.

Did you know the Coca-Cola sign has been a staple here since 1920? It’s evolved so much over the decades, and seeing the latest high-tech version in person is a reminder of how this city never stops reinventing itself.

Soaking up every bit of these NYC summer vibes before the season slips away. There is truly no place like Manhattan.

Still not over the fact that I’m back in reality for exactly one week now. Looking at these photos makes me wonder if I accidentally boarded a flight to California or South America instead of Spain.

The first shot is me living my best penthouse life with that golden hour glow over Marbella. Swipe for a little tropical illusion featuring palms and endless blue water. It honestly felt way too exotic to be just a few hours away from home.

And because no trip to the Old Town is complete without a bit of culture, the last slide features one of the iconic Dalí sculptures. Marbella you were a dream. Now someone please tell me how to get back there immediately.

Not me landing in Marbella and double checking if I accidentally boarded a flight to South America 🌴😅

Mountains in the background, palm trees everywhere, sunsets that look way too unreal to be legal… honestly this did not feel like Europe at all.

Swipe for a little proof →
Dreamy villas, endless palms, golden skies and that kind of scenery that makes you forget what day it is.

This place is actually paradise and yes I am still not over how beautiful this trip was.
🇪🇸

Jinjer turned the Astra Kulturhaus into a pressure chamber last night. Being in the pit and the first rows felt like standing inside the heartbeat of the band..... raw, precise and absolutely relentless.

Tatiana’s vocals cut through the room like a blade, Roman’s riffs hit with surgical intensity and the rhythm section shook the floorboards under our feet. From this close, you don’t just hear Jinjer - you feel them.

These shots are my attempt to capture that moment when chaos becomes art, when a crowd becomes one organism and when a band proves once again why they’re one of the most powerful live acts in modern metal.

Berlin - you were loud. Jinjer - you were unstoppable.

Deftones nights hit differently.
Side‑stage again, camera in hand, watching the entire venue explode the second *7 Words* kicked in.
No buildup, no hesitation — just instant release.
The whole floor was jumping so hard you could feel the shockwaves through the stage.
People screaming every word, lights flashing across faces that were completely gone in the moment, bodies moving like a single pulse.
That raw, physical energy you only get when Deftones hit that perfect line between aggression and atmosphere.
From my angle, it felt less like filming a show and more like documenting a controlled riot.
The band was on fire, the crowd was unhinged, and the room felt like it could lift off the ground at any second.
This is why I love capturing live music.
Not because it’s loud or chaotic, but because it’s alive.
Because for a few minutes, everyone in the room shares the same heartbeat.
Tonight was one of those nights.
Deftones delivered.
The crowd went off.
And I got to stand right in the middle of it.

I was standing on the side of the stage watching Deftones step into the light while the room was already buzzing. The walk in was over in seconds, but the real moment started with the very first notes of the opener. You could feel the sound roll through the venue and hit the crowd like a wave, people pushing forward, shouting, moving as if someone had flipped a switch. From this angle you see everything at once, the band locking in, the lights opening up and the audience losing any remaining distance. It is not just a song starting, it is the exact second a normal night turns into something unforgettable, when music, volume and bodies in motion become one shared moment. This is why live shows will always feel different from anything on a screen.

You’re trying to film the intro of Sulfur at a Landmvrks show...
and you somehow end up standing exactly where the circle pit is about to explode.

Landmvrks hit the stage with that signature Marseille energy, the crowd is already restless, and the moment the first notes of Sulfur drop, the entire venue shifts.
You can literally feel the floor move.

I’m right at the edge of the pit, thinking I can capture the atmosphere for a second…
and then the circle opens around me like a black hole.
People sprinting, bodies flying, pure chaos... the kind of chaos only Landmvrks fans understand.

Had to stop recording instantly unless I wanted to donate my phone to the moshpit gods.
Priorities.

This band doesn’t just play live. .. they detonate.
Every show feels like a mix of catharsis, adrenaline and community.
If you’ve ever been in a Landmvrks pit, you know exactly what I mean.

Marseille metalcore supremacy.
Landmvrks forever.

My 2025 concert photography highlights are here! 🤘

From the melancholic walls of sound with Deftones to the high energy performance of Jinjer, last year was a visual blast. I am really proud of this collection.

What do you think of these shots? Do you have a favorite band among these five?

Winter dusk on Karl-Marx-Allee, Berlin.
The city slows down as the sun dips behind the skyline, casting soft pastel hues across the icy boulevard. Snow blankets the median strip, and the iconic Fernsehturm (Berlin TV Tower) rises in the distance... a glowing beacon above the frozen cityscape.

This stretch of Karl-Marx-Allee, with its socialist classicist architecture and wide symmetry, feels surreal in winter. The wet asphalt reflects the street lights, and the shark-fin sculptures pierce through the snow like frozen waves.

Berlin in January is quiet, cinematic, and strangely poetic.
A moment of stillness before the night takes over.
