Tesla in der Eifel @ Capital Magazin
What a crazy assigment! A tiny little company in the Eifel gets bought by Tesla over-night. The Ceo goes to lunch and never returns. No information is passed to the people working there, so they hold a press conference. In the local swimming pool restaurant.

Published @ Wirtschaftswoche Ausgabe 10 2/3/2018
Trotz Nullzinsphase stellt der Fiskus säumigen Steuerzahlern sechs Prozent in Rechnung – und kassiert Milliarden. Nun wehren sich die Betroffenen - im Fall von Hans Rieschel nötigenfalls bis zum Bundesverfassungsgericht.
I am very happy to see such a big Portrait of mine in the current issue of Wirtschaftswoche Ausgabe 10 2/3/2018 of Hans Rieschel in front of the Finanzamt in Witten.

Published at Süddeutsche Magazin
with a rather unconventional Portrait
Published @ Süddeutsche Zeitung Magazin
I photographed Peter Wohlleben before. But I did not photograph his desk. For a special magazine edition, Süddeutsche Magazine sent me to the Eifel to photograph not the best selling author himself but instead his desk, where he wrote most of his fascinating work.
"About the desk: A design Magazine" Peter Wohllebens desk in his beautiful home in the Eifel.
“I am 1.98m tall - there is no desk out of the box. On top of that, I do not like chaos on the table, because I can’t concentrate on it. So the table had to be small (so you can not put much on it), but high, a classic case for a carpenter. I found a craft shop that fulfilled my wishes perfectly. The wood came from a dead elm with traces of beetles. The wood of the table top was brushed so that I can feel the year rings when I pass my hand over it. The construction is so thick and stable that the table can still be used for generations. If I ever have a writer’s block, I run my palm over the wood, feel the old tree and usually right then I have the next idea of what I could still tell about nature.”

Katty Salié in the minibib - a "Bücherbüdchen im Stadtgarten"
Cover @ Galore Literatur
For GALORE Interview Magazine I photographed Katty Salié, the German TV Host of "Aspekte" at a wonderful location the heart of Cologne. The minibib is a micro library inside the city park. The concept is easy but special: Its based on trust. There is no ID required and no data recorded. Every visitor is allowed to take one book per visit for a loan period of two weeks and the book selection is managed by an editor group. There couldn't be a better place to conduct an interview about literature!
Beersommelier Michael Busemann at the Gaffel Brauhaus in Cologne, Germany. He is member of the "Institure of Master of Beer".
Published @ Focus Magazine
I have to say that was one of the more funny assignments. Photographing Michael Busemann, a Beersommelier, in one of Colognes oldest traditional pubs right underneath the Dom. He and the writer were about to test 8 uncommon micro brewery German winter beers, and of course there were some left overs for me. Scheduled for a max. 2h visit, it got more to a 5 hour stay ending up downstairs at the bar celebrating the interview and photo session with some more Kölsch.
