One of the great privileges of portrait photography is that it constantly brings remarkable people into my life. Not just beautiful faces, but personalities, stories, ambitions and perspectives that make a photograph far more interesting than mere appearance.
Evelyn is one of those people.
While many know her as a model, she is also deeply involved in the world of artificial intelligence, building AI models as part of her studies. There is something wonderfully contemporary about that combination: creating digital intelligence while standing in front of a camera, becoming part of a visual narrative herself.
When I photographed her, what immediately caught my attention was not a smile, but her presence. The ability to command a frame without demanding attention. A calm confidence that doesn't need to announce itself.
The architecture around her became an essential part of the composition. The cool concrete surfaces, the clean vertical lines and the restrained urban palette create a visual counterpoint to the softness of her expression and the richness of the deep burgundy outfit. Fashion photography often lives from contrast, and here the image is built on exactly that tension: softness versus structure, elegance versus raw architecture, humanity versus geometry.
Captured with a Leica Q2 in its 35mm crop mode, the image deliberately retains the surrounding environment. I wanted the location to remain present rather than dissolve into a blur. The architecture is not decoration; it is part of the story. The concrete wall occupies a surprisingly large portion of the frame, creating negative space and visual calm, allowing Evelyn's presence to emerge naturally rather than compete for attention.
What I particularly appreciate is that the image doesn't rely on spectacle. No dramatic styling, no excessive post-processing, no visual tricks. Just beautiful natural light, thoughtful composition and a subject who understands that true elegance often lies in restraint.

Malta has a way of slowing time down. Over the extended weekend, I traded Rüsselsheim and schedules for family time, sea views, and a few quiet days on this remarkable island.
Of course, the camera came along.
What started as a short break quickly turned into a creative adventure when I met one of the finalists of the Miss Italia 2025 competition and former Miss Piemonte. Together, we spent Friday shooting along Malta’s stunning coastline, creating a series of fashion and beachwear images that exceeded every expectation.
These are not the final photographs yet—just a glimpse of what appeared on the camera screens during the shoot. But even from these previews, one thing is already clear: the images turned out spectacularly.
And the story doesn’t end there—another exciting shoot followed on Saturday. More to come soon.
Malta never disappoints. Neither does great light, a talented model, and a little creative spontaneity.

After yesterday’s Frankfurt Fashion Lounge, the answer feels very clear: yes — absolutely.
As part of Frankfurt Fashion Week, the Frankfurt Fashion Lounge proves that this city has far more to offer than business, banking and skyline silhouettes. Frankfurt has style. Frankfurt has creative energy. Frankfurt has designers, fashion artists and young talents with vision, courage and a very distinct sense of contemporary elegance.
Yesterday’s Next Generation Show was a beautiful reminder of what happens when fashion becomes more than fabric. It becomes movement. Attitude. Craft. Identity. A live composition of silhouettes, sound, architecture and emotion.
The location itself created a striking stage — urban, atmospheric, open, and full of tension between raw space and refined fashion. Against this backdrop, the looks came alive: bold textures, sculptural forms, quiet drama, sharp styling and moments that felt almost cinematic.
What makes the Frankfurt Fashion Lounge so exciting is exactly this blend: international ambition with a deeply local pulse. It brings together designers, brands, media, creatives, models and fashion lovers — and turns Frankfurt into a real runway for new ideas.
A special thank you to everyone involved in making this event happen. More than 180 people contributed to bringing this edition to life — and you could feel that energy in every detail.
So, can Frankfurt do fashion?
Yes. Definitely. And with the Frankfurt Fashion Lounge, it does so with confidence, creativity and a very elegant sense of momentum.

Some encounters are planned. Others simply appear — like a beautiful coincidence in the middle of the Atlantic light.
I discovered Elisa by chance on Instagram while being on Fuerteventura. Italian by birth, she brought that unmistakable Mediterranean charm to the set: warmth, elegance, ease — and a smile that made the wind feel almost intentional.
Fuerteventura has always been one of those islands that rewards the photographer who is willing to look beyond the obvious. Yes, there are beaches, volcanoes, desert colours and endless skies. But there are also strange, forgotten places: old ruins, abandoned structures, unfinished hotel dreams — locations with texture, silence and a certain cinematic loneliness.
This particular place no longer exists in this form. Today it has been developed, transformed, cleaned up by time and construction. I am genuinely glad we photographed there when we did. Some locations are only available for a short moment. Some models, too, arrive exactly when the frame needs them.
Elisa was wonderful to work with: natural, charming, open, full of warmth — and absolutely present in front of the camera. A real pleasure.
A black dress. White concrete. Atlantic wind.
And one of those rare shooting days that stays in the memory.

Frankfurt Fashion Lounge is far more than a fashion event. It is a carefully curated encounter between style, creativity, movement and atmosphere — a place where fashion is not merely shown, but staged, felt and remembered.
In the heart of Frankfurt, the runway becomes a visual dialogue: between architecture and silhouette, music and material, craft and contemporary attitude. Designers, brands, media, creatives and fashion lovers come together in a space charged with elegance, ambition and new energy.
What makes the Frankfurt Fashion Lounge so compelling is its rare balance: international aspiration with a distinctly local soul. Frankfurt is transformed into a stage for bold ideas, emerging talents and refined visual storytelling. Every look carries more than fabric — it carries identity, intention and emotion.
There is a particular beauty in its openness to young designers and fresh concepts. The platform gives new voices room to breathe, to experiment, to be seen. It celebrates fashion as culture, as business, as craftsmanship — and as an art form in motion.
With its focus on sustainability, innovation and handcraft, the Frankfurt Fashion Lounge stands for a modern understanding of luxury: thoughtful, expressive and alive. It connects people, perspectives and possibilities — creating moments that feel both intimate and international.
A runway for ideas.
A meeting point for style.
A pulse for Frankfurt’s growing fashion scene.
Frankfurt Fashion Lounge — fashion with presence, purpose and poetic energy.

Abu Dhabi is not a city you photograph casually.
You have to respect its rhythm.
So we started early in the morning — before the sun became too dominant, before the heat took over, before the light turned from beautiful to brutal. In those first hours, the city has a different elegance: glass, water, architecture, silence, and that soft golden clarity only the morning can offer.
In front of my camera: Dishita Raathor — model, singer, creator.
A woman moving between India, the USA, and the UAE, carrying fashion, music, and a very natural sense of presence into the frame.
This is one of the great privileges of photography: working with models from all over the world, meeting people I would otherwise perhaps never meet, and discovering how every person brings their own culture, rhythm, confidence, and beauty to the image.
Dishita brought exactly that.
A little India.
A little Dubai morning light.
A little music in the way she moved.
And a lot of quiet, effortless grace.
For me, this is where photography becomes more than a picture.
It becomes an encounter.

Water is never just water.
In the morning light of Malta, it becomes surface, mirror, atmosphere — a blue architectural space in which the body, the fabric and the sun begin to negotiate their own quiet geometry.
This series with Abigail was photographed at aan amazing five-star luxury hotel on the eastern side of the island, beginning at 9 a.m., before the heat became theatrical and before the day lost its precision.
The white bikini against the pool’s intense blue creates a visual language of reduction: almost monochrome in its clarity, almost sculptural in its restraint. The chrome of the pool ladder, the reflections on the water, the pale hotel umbrellas dissolving into the background — everything becomes part of a composed Mediterranean stage.
Abigail moves through this scenery with a calm, almost cinematic presence. Not posing loudly, but inhabiting the frame. There is elegance here, but not decoration. There is sensuality, but held with discipline. There is luxury, but stripped down to light, line and temperature.
A poolside moment, yes.
But also a small study in contrast: white against blue, softness against steel, human presence against the designed silence of resort architecture.

A compact look at the photo shoot on Fuerteventura. More photo material for the Fine Art Calendar 2025.
I had planned to take the photos in the afternoon, so that there was already softer sunlight. There was also a Kalima effect, which means a little desert dust in the air, but this makes the light a little softer. The locations were the beach on the east coast and the villa with pool and terrace.

The photo shoot with Melly resulted in a lot of very good pictures. The aim of my calendar is to pay homage to a calendar from Italy (tire manufacturer brand). Both in terms of image and quality.
During the shoot, I work both in the shade and in direct sunlight; a flash is not used. The focal length is between 35 mm and 85 mm.

Actually it should be a workshop. I booked a cool location and organized a professional model (Denisa Strakova). Unfortunately, my workshop was interfered by some Corona environment, that is, the interest broke away. Location and model I still had and so some cool shots were taken 1:1. (You missed something.) In my social media activities, one of my side platforms is also ViewBug.... the photo with Denisa is now in the contest "Funky Outfits" on place 1. With around 7,000 worldwide image submissions in a fashion section, this also makes me a bit proud and happy. By the way, the shot was taken with pure daylight.
