My impressions of Peru & Bolivia

In April 2011 we left our jobs in Switzerland and decided to go and backpack in South America for a few months. Our destination was Peru & Bolivia. They are two of the (financial) poorest countries in South America but at the same time the nature is very rich and breathtaking. It was hard to [...]

Morcote

Morcote is a village just outside Lugano. We live here. As a photographer this is a dream place! It is very different from most other cities in Switzerland. It reminds me more about Italy with its narrow streets and old buildings. Above the village there is the church Santa Maria Del Sasso. It has a [...]

UWC Reunion

Now a days I only post photos which is work related but this event was so big for me that it will have to come up on the blog. The reunion for class 00′ and ’01 is now officially over. It was amazing to see so many familiar faces and good friends. Some people [...]

Autumn in Luzern

It is funny how one tends to explore places which always are far away from where you live – this time we did not. We went to the forest which is 5 minutes away from where we live. We had a long weekend here in Luzern – today the weather was suppose to be at [...]

Bannalpsee

This weekend I went with Patri, Mark and Caroline to Bannalpsee which is around 30mins away from Luzern. It was really cool as it was very secluded. For a while we were the only ones walking around this entire lake. It was powerful. We also started to shout and could see small avalanches every now [...]

Photowalk with Patri and my new Nikon 60mm Macro

The other day Patri and I went for a walk to try my new macro lens – she also picked up a camera to give it a go. Here are some of the photos with my new lens. I got a macro mostly for doing my ring shots in a wedding but during the “test” [...]

Landscape shots from Crete

On the final day in Crete we had to wait for the bus to take us to the airport – whilst waiting I decided to take some sunset photos. The waves that day were pretty strong. When I started photography then Landscape interested me most but now I focus on Wedding and Portrait photography. However, [...]

Trip to Aosta, Italy

We stayed in a city called Aosta which was a small town that allowed us to go to the “Parco Nazionale del Gran Paradiso”. The city itself is not amazing but good enough as a “base”. First day we had a picknick next to one of many castles around there and the view of town and then I went to see the champions league final (Bayern vs Inter)…

Barcelona

Every year for my birthday I go somewhere to celebrate it – this year it was Barcelona with Patri. In short: it started terribly but overall it was great.The reason it started terribly was due to the fact that we woke up at 4 am to make our 7am flight with Easyjet that turned out to be 3 hours late! It informed all passengers it was delayed – but not by how long. After 3 hours, and a missed breakfast in barcelona, it arrived. Never easy jet again!
