I was born in Zurich, but moved with my parents to the Canton Aargau as my father got a job there. I grew up  in the region of Zofingen. Finally, I'm living again in Zurich, where I also work.

The first time I got in contact with a camera was with eight years. I got a Agfa Instamatic Pocket. A real jewel for me, and I started snapping everything I liked. My first SLR came into my hands when I turned 23. For whatever reason, the occupation with cameras went to sleep shortly afterwards.

It was revived after I bought a DSLR, as I was really unhappy with my then point-and-shot camera, as it was so slow. My work stay 2007 in Australia finally started the virus for photography  again, as I noticed that I'm really interested to capture things beyond the simple holiday memories. I started reading books and magazines, joined flickr and visited photo exhibitions. It is always interesting to look back and see how my seeing and capturing evolved over this time.

When I leave my home, I'm rarely without a camera in my bag. Simple reason is that you never know on what you come across and then your camera will be missing.

I'm currently working on my calender 2023 with the assignment lakes higher than 1'000 metres. I'm also working on documenting the club "Mikado 1244".
