  ABOUT ME
  
  Hello and welcome to my page.
  
  I am a travelling photographer home based in Zurich-Switzerland, who is over 40 years in business and still with great passion.
  Mind you though I work very seldom in Switzerland, I am mostly abroad
  
  Apart working Commercialy I do a lot shootings for my own work.
  Commercial shootings are based Portraits, Fashion, body parts, nudeart, boudoir, lingerie, swimwear, architectural photography for Hotels and house owners.
  Although photographing both in color and B&W for commercial work.
  For my own work I love B&W and use very little touch up correction. NO PHOTOSHOP at all (again old school)
  
  Today I am 62 years old. I have started photography at the age of fourteen with a camera I have received from my parents, at the age of fifteen I had my own dark room where I have started to develop black-and-white 135mm films. As you can imagine I belong to Analog photography generation.
  In the early days I shot Landscape and Street photography, but soon I have realized that my passion is People photography, especially women.
  I find women very fascinating, regardless their age, body shape, the looks, race etc.
  In my very early twenties while studying at Kunstgewerbeschule in Zurich, I switch to People photography.
  I shoot on natural light. Indoors as well as Outdoors.
  
  In addition during my travel for my shootings if time permits I love to walk around the City and shoot Cityscapes.
  
  It did not take me long to realise that if you are not among the top hundred photographers of the world and have great connections in the fashion industry, no way to earn money. Especially coming from Switzerland where these issues are neglected.
  So parallel to photography I started my career in the Aviation industry. It was a great opportunity for me to do what I love, travel and photography and climb up the success stairs in my job.
  I ended up my employment carrier in 2004 as a high management member and started my own business, this gave me even more freedom. In other words I can not complain.
  My photos were published by number of international magazines, which is very honoring.
  nevertheless I shall start my own publishing very soon
  I hope you all will enjoy my pictures as well.
  
  Thanking you sincerely for taking your time checking out my page and reading my biography.
  
  Best Wishes

• Please do read the Sedcard text before contacting.
  
  if you wish to send me shooting request message please do not copy paste your messages which you are sending to other photographers. Also please do not delete or at least make a list of the photographers you have contacted previously.
  I keep getting messages from the same models over and over over again cause they do not remember to whom they have written before. It sounds ridiculous if we have already worked together and you are telling me you have seen my set card and love my photos, without checking a single photo.
  If you want to be a bit professional prepare a nice sedcard so that I can see who you are and how you look like.
  There are photographers who might want to work with anyone. But if you are contacting me I need you to be more professional.
  Thank you..

• This project is called WOMEN are always beautiful, you just have to learn how to look at them and admire them.
  The whole income of this project will go to Women`s houses in poor Countries, where Women had to suffer from DOMESTIC VIOLENCE from their husband, boyfriends even from their own Parents. Had to escape and have no place to go.
  Having reach a certain age and being able to see the world with a different eye made me want to start this project.
  I strongly believe it's time to give back something back to socially especially to those who needs our help very Urgently.
  I want to shoot with models(amateur/professional) from age 20 to 65+ years in order to show the World that women are always beautiful regardless their age and whether they are thin, curvy, Different races and sexual orientation. All models will be photographed wearing just a white shirt.
  Happy to announce that I have already found models who were kind enough to participate in this project. I am especially thankful to the Ladies who are 55+ and some ladies with different sexual orientation who took the liberty to participate, but obviously I will need more models.
  Those who have refused or ask high amount of fees. Sorry that you do not understand what Charity work means and personally you`ll never be in that situation.
  As soon as the shootings are completed, the photos will be published at exhibitions and in order to bring in money as well as a book will be printed and sold.
  I am also counting on Donations from people who visit the exhibitions and/or some private investors. I am in process finding sponsors as well.
  All printing as well as all my own costs (time, travel expenses etc.) will be covered by me.
  So as you can read, I have a long way in front of me.
  All I ask from you dear models if you will be kind enough to participate voluntarily in this project to help Women who really need our support.
  I thank you for your time and looking forward receiving your positive answer in this matter.
  Best wishes

• This BLUE SHIRT project is dedicated to Ukrainian People and animals.
  
  Let me start by telling you how I started with this project.
  Many years ago while working for a major leading Airline my area of responsibility was Eastern Europe (was cold Beyond Iron Curtain by that time) all the way to the border of China.
  Like other Eastern Countries I have spent long time in Ukraine. Many people who will read this text were not even born yet. Made lot of friends and fell in love with the Country.
  Since the beginning of the war. I have voluntarily worked for refugee acceptance center even took a young lady with her younger brother to our home.
  So, making monthly donations to Ukraine since the beginning of the war later on I came across with an article about animals suffering from the war which broke my heart. I donate monthly to the people of Ukraine and Animals.
  Now that a year is when I talk with my friends in Ukraine, I realize that there is more need then ever. Therefore, I decided to start this BLUE SHIRT project which matches to the Ukraine flag color.
  
  As before on this project I want to shoot with models(amateur/professional) from age 20 to 65+ years in order to show the World that women are always beautiful regardless their age and whether they are thin, curvy, Different races and sexual orientation.
  All models will be photographed wearing just a blue shirt.
  I will be shooting with ladies (amateur/professional) from age 20 to 65+ years regardless their age and whether they are thin,curvy, Different races and sexual orientation. In order to show the World that we stand with Ukraine.
  All I ask from you dear models (especially the Ukraine models) if you will be kind enough to participate voluntarily in this project to help Ukraine who really need our support.
  Happy to announce that I have already started my shootings.
  As soon as the shootings are completed, the photos will be published at exhibitions and in order to bring in money as well as a book will be printed and sold.
  I am also counting on Donations from people who visit the exhibitions and/or some private investors. I am in process finding sponsors as well.
  All printing as well as all my own costs (time, travel expenses etc.) will be covered by me.
  I thank you for your time and looking forward receiving your positive answer in this matter.
  Best wishes
