Blackbird

Thea, Frankfurt, 2015

A candid, experimental series. First attempts with a new camera. Searching for atmosphere for new fantasies.

Tingle Tangle, 4k

Yuliya, Frankfurt, 2019

Another pick from the archives, re-retouched and in 4k. An evening in Frankfurt in a brand new hotel suite.

Flavors Unite Us, 4k

Nastya, Paris, 2024

This series fits so well now, because it was shot in November. I don't need to repeat myself, you probably all know that Nastya is one of my favorite models and so even I am happy to have a look at this series again.

Undress to Impress, 4k

Monika, Prague, 2024

When you travel to Prague, you'd think there would be enough models you could book, right? Unfortunately, times have changed. I can't explain why that is. But luckily I found Monika, from Poland, and was able to hire her.

You can tell she's a catalog model and fi...

Asanas in Eden, Video 4k

I've often wanted to do a shoot with yoga. The models usually say they can do yoga, but unfortunately that's not true. Kira didn't say she could do it, but she was damn good at it.

The nature around us was enchanting. The yoga mat I brought with me (yes, the one from the shoot with Lina in ...

Blonde Ambition, Bug Edition, 4k

Avery, Frankfurt, 2024

I really wanted to present my photo book "Mellow" to Avery in person. And when she was cruising through Europe in her yellow VW Beetle, she made a stop to see me in Frankfurt. I had previously searched for an outdoor location here where we could photograph with a car ...

Two Donkey and One Heart, 4k

Lina, Fuerteventura, 2024
Donkeys are just adorable. So hilariously goofy, funny, sweet. That's why I stopped briefly when I saw them, because Lina was completely smitten too. Note to self: If you want to lift a woman's mood and give a shoot new energy, bring animals into the mix.

Game, Set, Soul, 4k

Nastya, Fuerteventura, 2023
These shots were taken before Nastya became a Playmate. I just need to mention that briefly for the sake of completeness. Nastya is my favorite model, if I'm allowed to say that, but I can't always work only with her. Though she's definitely one of those women I cou...

Obey Me, 4k

Melisa Mendini, Frankfurt, 2009

These pictures were taken during my first collaboration with Melissa Mendini (Melissa or Melisa?) in my office. In my office. Funny, right? Everything's a bit chaotic styling-wise, but Melissa can pull it off.

Shhhh, 4k

Bernadette, Frankfurt, 2009
Sometimes I wish I could have models like Bernadette back. She was so "go-getter," always full throttle, no fear, no shyness, and cheeky. That's a really good combination. To be honest, she was ahead of me back then. She wanted to be in Playboy and I thought her bre...

First Push, 4k

Katharina, Fuerteventura, 2024

I'm always a bit worried that you might be disappointed when I photograph with a longboard again (at least it's a different one from last time). But then I think to myself that maybe you're more interested in the woman than in my props after all. I hope I'm ri...

Voluptuous, 4k

Delila, Frankfurt, 2009
Where have high heels gone? What is fashion doing these days? Here's a real woman. Voluptuous. Am I still allowed to say that? Let me introduce: Delila. A funny person. She went to the reception desk and said she was there for the photo shoot. The bewildered receptionis...

Ban the Bra, 4k, Remake

Raphaella, Ibiza, 2013

I haven't been to Ibiza all that often. But the island has always held a fascination for me. When I photographed there for the first time in 2013, it was this hippie shoot with Raphaella. Since I was back at the same locations this year (with a different model), I pul...

Stocking Love, 4k

Kira, Tenerife, 2025
The year went by so fast again. Hard to believe I took these photos this year and that it was this year I went to Tenerife with Kira. But it's true. And because it was raining, I brought these stockings for her and shot in the hotel room.

Mermaid, 4k, Part 3

Margoreett, Tenerife, 2024

This shoot means a lot to me because I was completely overwhelmed by the sun - the sea was blinding and I couldn't handle the black contrast of the stones and rocks while trying to photograph. On top of that, I had to coordinate the lively Margoreett, and in the e...

Behind the Scenes video with Lolita

Lolita, Ibiza, 2025

Working with a knee injury sucks. At least the focus was not on my. Here is a short behind the scenes of Lolita being photographed by me in Ibiza. In one scene you can see me photographing the cover of my 2026 calendar available on my website.

Pass is: calabonita...

Farewell to Summer, Part 1, 4k

Yao Tsy, Frankfurt, 2025

Planning outdoor projects in Frankfurt is always tricky. You never know what the weather will bring, especially when you're brave enough to try it in September. But as they say, fortune favors the bold, and this time I got lucky and caught the last rays of sunshine...

My Lipstick, 4k

Nera, Frankfurt, 2011
What can you really do in a plain white hotel room? I simply used it like a studio, cleared everything to the side, and asked Nera to oil herself up. Then I got the idea - why not use lipstick to paint around the nipples too? I got slammed for that in modeling forums back...

Out of the Blue, 4k

Rebecca, Fuerteventura, 2019
I like creating photo series with a single color as the theme. It's not always easy, and there are some colors that just don't work at all. Blue is always borderline. Blue stockings can look pretty ridiculous, but when I set my mind to something, I follow through. ...

Bananarama, 4k

Beraca, Tenerife, 2025

I had always wanted to do a shoot in a banana plantation. And so it finally happened this year in Tenerife. There are always these disgusting big spiders in the banana trees, and they spin large webs that I beautifully cleared away with my head. Wonderful.

Bera...

United Colors, 4k, Remake

Marta, Frankfurt, 2007

Marta was my first real nude model. One who knew her way around. Who had more experience than I did. She's tall and a real presence with her red hair. She came from Poland, the nude modeling mecca of the early 2000s.

With her I could express myself creatively, ...

Cactus Couture, 4k

Nicci, Tenerife, 2024

Dream woman, dream body, dream backdrop. A garbage dump as a set? If someone had suggested that to me beforehand, I would have thought they were crazy. But when we got there and everything was so dark, I thought, yes, of course, this works with that dream body. And so...

Carpet Kingdom, 4k

Katherine, Frankfurt, 2025

I like it when models take initiative. I had been in contact with Katherine years ago, but the timing never worked out. Now she reached out to me asking if we shouldn't finally do something together.

No sooner said than done. We clicked immediately. Sometime...

Signals to Silence, Video 4k

I realized that it would be better to set up the camera higher, which is not so easy outdoors. I never actually have a tripod with me. But there will be a solution. As I said, I'm still learning. At least the video quality is better than it used to be.

For this shoot, Kira didn't sleep a wi...

In My Wildest Dreams, 4k

Michaela, Frankfurt, 2010

It happens more rarely than you'd think for a model to completely let go and just exude pure sensuality. That's how it was with Michaela. I had ideas and she executed them as if it were the easiest thing in the world.

I managed to make the whole thing look a...

Kate in Mallorca, 4k, Part 1

Kate, Mallorca, 2017

Attention, here comes a huge set. Because I've dived into the archive once again and dug up a wonderful redhead. She reminds me a bit of that actress. But somehow that's also silly, because she stands on her own. As a wonderful, red-haired beauty. Enjoy nature with Kat...

First Time, 4k

Anna Sophie, Frankfurt, 2011

I've never published these photos before. It was actually just a test shoot because I wanted to see if Anna Sophie had what it takes to be a Playmate. She passed the test. How stupid that sounds. But I'm not allowed to make that decision alone. And the editoria...

Costal Calm, 4k

Margoreett, Tenerife, 2024

I love having confident women in front of the lens. Ones who are comfortable with themselves and cheeky. Margoreett is one of them. She dares to do things, is intelligent, and I feel safe with her too because she knows martial arts. So she kept a good eye on my e...

Lost in Lactose, 4k

Emanuelle, Frankfurt, 2025

Bathtubs in hotel rooms have become a rarity. So I got a few liters of milk and, well, it really is an old concept, but I hadn't photographed it myself in over a decade, so Emanuelle was allowed to showcase her voluptuous breasts. Too banal? I don't know. But I t...

Unconditional, 4k, Remake

Noe, Zurich, 2013

I was so grateful when the editor-in-chief of a Swiss magazine offered to let me shoot in his loft. So I booked myself a flight and arranged a shoot beforehand. I scheduled a second one as well, because you never know if the model will actually show up.

So there I a...
