Born and educated in Austria, I received my degree in photography from the IFI Institute in Salzburg. Initially working in Europe as a photo journalist, I later moved to Canada where I found employment as a commercial photographer and changed my focus in that direction.
After two years as a staff photographer I opened my own studio specializing in fashion and commercial photography and soon counted Canada’s biggest retailers and top advertising agencies among my clients. Having operated a commercial studio for many years I changed my focus to creative portraiture, using my experience in fashion photography to provide artistic portrait and boudoir photo shoots.
