During my mandatory military service in Germany I discovered a darkroom on my base and started using it after hours; thankfully my military career ended after 18 months and I started a 3 year apprenticeship in a photography studio in Düsseldorf with Uli Steinmetz. After that I assisted various other photographers in Düsseldorf (Hartmut Kiefer, Dieter Eickelpoth) and in 1988 I arrived in New York City for a vacation (I am still here). Some more assisting, working with Norman Parkinson was a highlight. Started my own photography business in 1991, shooting interiors, architecture, travel, portraits etc. This was all before the “Digital Revolution” so I traveled around with (sometimes hundreds) of rolls of film and boxes of polaroids, shooting mostly for magazines such as Metropolitan Home, Departures, Travel & Leisure, O at Home, This Old House, Luxury SpaFinder etc. Today it’s much easier with just a laptop. I live in Brooklyn.
