I am a self-taught photographer, always willing to learn to make better images out of our wonderful nature. At the age of 18, my father offered me a camera, and thus enabled me to take my first pictures. Then I discovered a true passion for traveling and the wild and open spaces with the person that would later become my wife. I feel a real joy to capture images and to search for appealing lights, colors, shapes and textures. My specialty is landscape and nature photography, with a focus on Switzerland, Europe and USA. My images have been exhibited in numerous places and some of my photographs have won honors in photo contests around the world. For me photography is a mean to express my interpretation of the nature around me. My goal is to highlight ephemeral moments of the beauty that surrounds us and try to convey my emotional feeling to the viewer. I enjoy photographing landscape sceneries at various times of the year. My choice of subject comes from my interest in minimalism or in the quest of the details by providing expressive and powerful compositions in black and white or color. I am inspired to capture the ever changing light, the contrast of bright and dark tones, the movement of the time by using long exposures.
