Photographer | Instructor | Producer | Dad

I'm a portrait photographer with a fashion taste, originally from Switzerland, now living and working in Queensland Australia.Beside my work as a photographer, I teach photography workshops, write articles for a variety of publications, and produce the photography show 10 from the couch.In the past, I made a living as singer and actor (in musicals, bands, and on tv), however over the years my love for photography won the battle between "in front - or - behind the camera".
My biggest talent:To make people look and feel beautiful.
If you'd love to find out more about how "Models are made",you might find this video interesting.

About 2 weeks ago As a follow-up to my post from yesterday, here's a close up from the same shoot with Jenny Brandon.

Now - to answer a few comments on skin retouching (with comments like "looks plastic"): I find it sad that everyone expects photoshop behind everything these days. If you select the right model and makeup artist carefully, and light your subject really well, you'll be surprised how much less photoshop is required!

Have a great & creative weekend everyone!

About 2 weeks ago I've been asked many times, so I finally managed to upload a few of my images to my Smugmug account. It took a while, I know, but selling myself has never been my strong-point  ;)

PRINTS NOW ONLINE
A tiny selection of images is now up, including a few of my favourite ballet images and (for those who asked) the two smoke shots from yesterdays post as well.
