    Where do you go when you want to be with you?

    Tell us something about your education

    I actually came to photography in a round-about way. I studied to become a lawyer and those were 5 pretty difficult years. Luckily, I got the chance to study photography after I quit my law job. Learning photography came more naturally and I was a lot happier doing that.
