Teaching & Speaking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Photography is not only about technique. It is about learning to see, making deliberate choices and developing a visual language of your own. Alongside my work as a photographer and creative director, I teach, speak and exchange ideas about images and the thinking behind them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I led the inaugural Porsche Photography Masterclass in Malaysia<\/em>, give workshops and lectures for Leica Camera<\/em>, have joined panels at OMR<\/em> and spoken at BFF events<\/em>, and teach photography at ecosign Academy <\/em>in Cologne.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Good to know<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Do I need to be a professional photographer?<\/span><\/summary>\n

Not at all. Workshops can be adapted to different levels of experience\u2014from curious beginners and ambitious amateurs to professionals looking for a fresh perspective. What matters most is curiosity and a willingness to explore.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

What kind of camera do I need?<\/span><\/summary>\n

The brand or model is not important. Bring a camera you feel reasonably comfortable with; even a simple setup can be enough to work seriously with light, composition and visual ideas. If a workshop requires any particular equipment, you will know beforehand.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

What do we actually work on?<\/span><\/summary>\n

That depends on the format and the participants. Possible subjects include seeing and composing, working with available or artificial light, developing a visual language, editing a series and turning an initial idea into a coherent body of work.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

Can a workshop be tailored to a team or institution?<\/span><\/summary>\n

Yes. Content, duration and level can be adapted for universities, companies, creative teams, festivals or smaller private groups. A workshop may be practical, conversational or a combination of both.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n

Where\u2014and in which language\u2014do you teach?<\/span><\/summary>\n

I teach in German and English, in Cologne and internationally. Workshops, lectures and portfolio reviews can take place on location; selected formats are also possible online.<\/p>\n<\/details>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s Talk<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you are planning a lecture, workshop, masterclass or panel and think my perspective could add something useful, let\u2019s talk<\/em><\/a>. I work in German and English\u2014in Cologne and wherever the conversation takes us.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
