Creative soul and storyteller

I live in Salzburg, Austria, and offer elegant, timeless photography with a touch of fashion and fine art. As a citizen of both Austria and the USA, with experience in Belgium and England, I bring an international perspective and speak fluent German and English.

My photography includes weddings, portraits, family and teen shoots, branding and dance photography. I customise each session to my clients' wishes in order to create high-quality and unforgettable images. I work not only in Salzburg, but also in other parts of Austria and travel all over Europe for shoots.

With my experience, creativity and a trained eye for aesthetics, I transform special moments into timelessly inspiring works of art.
