About me

Welcome to my nature photography website. 

Born and raised in Hamburg, I have been living at the foot of the Swabian Alb in

Baden-Württemberg for 21 years now, together with my husband and my two children.

But as often as possible I travel to Africa and pursue my passion there.

​

Many years ago I did an internship of several months in Nairobi after my law studies, I

explored Kenya intensively during this time and then traveled independently for

another three months all the way to Cape Town. Since that time I have been fascinated

by the continent. Further trips followed, during which I hiked Kilimanjaro or followed

my childhood dream in Uganda to observe wild chimpanzees and gorillas in their

natural habitat. Always with me was my camera. Little by little, fascination turned into

passion and the more time I spent in nature there, the greater became my desire to

inspire others and to share my experiences through photography.

​

Although I am equally interested in the shapes and colors of our native mountain

and coastal landscapes, my focus is on African wildlife photography. In our fast-paced,

structured time, there is hardly any room to pause. In the African bush, on the other

hand, the cycle of nature becomes visible, it is the small and the big dramas of the

diverse animal world that one can experience there and which - especially in nature

photography - require one thing: Time and patience. Those who get involved will find

both peace and freedom, and that's why I'm drawn there again and again.

Originally started in eastern Africa, I now spend most of my time in southern African

countries.

I hope you enjoy my pictures.
