i am: half greek, half german, born on march 9th 1978 in giessen, germany; starsign piesces.
i try to create "real" photographs, pictures with a personal note, soul, a sense of emotion and with a hint of irony and sexy charm,without any bits and pieces - straight, unpretentious and intimate.i try to show people as they are - and not as they attempt to be.
in fashion photography, i like to use subtle and ironic elements, which sometimes refer to the atmosphere of a fairy tale...
I like: magritte, cartier-bresson, philip lorca dicorcia, soul/funk & jazz, diskjockeying, vinyl, everything which is analogue, full moon at the beach, 26 degrees water temperature, summer, watermelons, olives, souvlaki, the "click" of my hasselblad, tough women, wild parties, the color blue, quantum- and chaostheory, paranormal phenomenas, being spontaneous, decisions on a gut level, greece, the horizon, super 8mm film, polaroid, gentle people and - of course - photography :)
