About me
My name is Christoph, male, german, self employed lawyer, married to my wonderful model and artist Marei.

I am affected to photography since being a boy. For me it is a way, to create something lasting, something, that expresses impacts as well as conveys moods and feelings.
I like the idea, that our photos do not only represent an impact of the space between us, but also coin this space by themselves. A wonderful way, to take part in my eyes.

To become member and part of this community was an important step in my photographic journey through life, as it helped me to become clearer about "my way" and to improve the skills to convey a clear message.

I would be pleased if You visit my homepage and thanks for Your interest:
