My motivation

I used to study biology, chemistry and sports at the university until I realized that I could find everything I was looking for in photography. I specialise in action sports photography as I couldn't imagine to experience a better combination of nature, adrenaline, creativity and pure fun! It's just a perfect way to spend my time, get my head refreshed and see things in a different angle - literally. It's definitely my dream job!
In my photographs, I try to stay as close to the reality as possible. I don't use excessive postproduction to alter the atmosphere of my surroundings, although I frequently use flashes as a contrast to the ambient light.
I'm also a big fan of sequence/all-in-one photography. Of course it's easily overused nowadays, but I still think that a well-made allinone is the perfect way to showcase the newest and craziest tricks in action sports. 

I'm always on the lookout for fresh names, the next big trick and that next magic moment when a special image is captured.
