Dr. Jörg Mosolf / MOSOLF Group & members of the board, 2025

I know that I don’t post commercial (especially corporate) work here often, but I probably should 👀

By the very end of last year, I had the chance to team up with my partner in crime Ihr Fotofachgeschäft & Fotostudio im Herzen von Kirchheim to shoot Dr. Jörg Mosolf as well as the members of the board of MOSOLF Group - one of europe‘s leading automotive logistics companies.

With little to no time left to prep, the goal was to create authentic images with a special background: the retirement announcement of Jörg Mosolf himself. And suddenly I found myself documenting a piece of corporate history.

Especially when working on corporate jobs, I like to break the rules of this so shiny and perfect visual language. I mix it with the genres i’m usually working in, to get a deeper layer of authenticity and understanding of the person in front of me.

Certainly not for everyone - but being bold and authentic pays off. That having said: Thanks MOSOLF for being bold and Susanne Schneider for the trust.

For me, Ludovico Einaudi is one of the greatest musical artists of our time.

The thought that I would one day be able to photograph him - let alone meet him - was so big, that it never even crossed my mind.

It has now been almost exactly ten years since I first heard „Experience“. It was part of a short film that deeply shaped me and my visual understanding of the world.

I cannot count the number of times I have cried my eyes out to this piece. Not necessarily out of sadness, but because it carries such an immense emotional force.

Especially in moments when I feel overwhelmed, Einaudi’s music feels like a cleansing fire. As if, all of a sudden, stillness and peace begin to settle in. It creates something intimate. Something familiar. A fertile ground for new thoughts.

To me, his music is a journey through melancholy, grief, self-recognition, peace, and the endless urge to face the fragile beauty of life.

Thank you to Ludovico and the wonderful team who welcomed me with such warmth. I was incredibly nervous, but through your kindness and calm, open hearted energy, I felt truly at ease.

And most of all, thank you to and for making this encounter possible in the first place.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

Maybe, only maybe I have the honor of meeting Ludovico again ;) Stay tuned.

at obonjan, croatia - 2025

I’ve known the music of Denis Horvat since quite some years now. After being back at the island festival in croatia last year, it turned out that we had our lodges right next to each other.

what started as a coincidence ended in a pretty amazing neighborhood. laughs and talks about life for whole nights, up until the sun started to show its first ray of lights. great wine, great company.

the last evening I asked Denis if I can take some shots of him which he agreed to. That’s when I captured this little series.

Hope to be back on this beautiful island this year 🫶🏼

As officially announced yesterday, German actor Lars Eidinger will play a major role as the villain in the upcoming Superman film “Man of Tomorrow.”

And with that, something is happening I’ve believed in for a long time: Lars is becoming one of the very few German actors to make it into the big Hollywood blockbusters - and I couldn’t be happier for him. Because I think that’s exactly where he belongs.

To me, Lars isn’t just one of the best actors out there, but someone who fascinated me from the very first time I‘ve crossed his path. I still remember the invite from a about 6 years ago, asking me if I want to shoot a rave where a german actor is DJing.

His brutally honest, deeply reflective way of being can be so direct it almost creates a certain sense of shame - the kind that comes from being confronted with your own inner thoughts. Every time I listen to him, I feel like I’ve understood a little more about life. His ability to explore certain topics in a nuanced, uninhibited openness has polarized in the past.

Just like his roles: in the German-speaking world, he often became known for embodying evil. Characters with depth and darkness.

All the more interesting it was for me to get to know him away from the cameras, to get a glimpse into who this person really is: a quiet, incredibly kind guy who, to me, seems like he’s on a never ending search for himself while serving something bigger.

Thank you, Lars, for stepping in front of my camera.
Grateful for every moment our paths have crossed 🫶🏼

Today marks two years of working with 🫶🏼

Thanks for having me on many amazing tourstops this year, from munich, to budapest, london, amsterdam and many more places.

I still remember listening to his music on my daily morning commute to photography college and dreaming about touring with artists. Now that’s a reality and i’m grateful for it everyday. No matter how turbulent times can be, if i’m thinking about all the experiences and laughs we shared, it puts an immediate smile upon my face.

To many more memories and

until we meet again. 🖤

at with moments from and .

So many cheerful moments, amazing people and one purpose only: the love of music. Music unites, gives and creates freedom and sometimes brings our deepest feelings to the surface. I loved every minute of just immersing myself into those vibrant nights without any plan or schedule but with knowing: i’m surrounded by people with the same spirit.

Thanks to you all ❤️
