2018 in Review, 2019 in View

By No comment
  What a year it has been. Phew! I pushed myself to try out new things and take on some new challenges. That made my year interesting, but also left me feeling a bit exhausted. Truth is, I wouldn’t change it, because I am glad that I allowed my ideas to spread their wings...

Beloved Stories Date Zürich

By 12 comment
I just LOVE connecting with fellow photographers and creatives. That is precisely why, Tim and I decided to organize a Beloved Stories Date in Zürich this past Sunday! In March, I was fortunate enough to participate in the Beloved Stories Date in Barcelona. I met so many talented photographers from all over Germany, Austria...

Feeling good about turning 30

By 18 comment
  I couldn’t be more ready to turn 30! While some people approach this milestone with hesitation, I have welcomed it with open arms. My 20s were fun and a great decade to find my footing in this adventure we call life. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t have it all together, but I...

The Rural Workshop

By 18 comment
I was looking forward to The Rural Workshop for a few months – I was actually very lucky to be able to attend, because when I saw it being advertised I was on a road trip in Denmark and by the time I was home and ready to purchase a ticket, it was sold...

I now have a youtube channel

By 18 comment
  I blame GaryVee! So I have been considering starting a Youtube channel for a few months now, but reading Crushing It! has given me the confidence to take that leap. At the moment, I cannot really articulate what my channel will be about – I guess it will just need to develop over...

The Heart Behind the Workshop in Corsica, France

By 26 comment
Last week, Tim and I announced that we are planning a workshop for photographers in Corsica, France. We are both sooo excited! I completely fell in love with the island when we went there for two weeks four years ago. We packed our car to the rim, which during those days was a small...

Why I love December

By 29 comment
Yes, it is freeeezing outside and it takes a lot of energy to get myself out of my comfy clothes to leave my flat and go outside. But despite the ugly weather (except the beauty of fresh snow), December really is one of my favourite months. As the year comes to a close, I...

Let Your Mind Wander

By 20 comment
We usually keep our minds so busy. Constantly feeding ourselves with information without letting it properly sink in and processing it. We fill gaps with noise, scrolling through social media, reading an article, listening to a podcast etc… (also guilty as charged!). It is all good, but in moderation. Whatever happened to quiet time?...

Workshops: Learn, Connect & Enjoy

By 44 comment
A year ago, Tim and I decided to invest a bit of money in order to attend The Roadtrip, a photography seminar led by Carmen & Ingo and Nadia Meli. From the several locations and guest speakers available, we chose to attend the one taking place in Zürich with Julia and Gil. This decision...

Pay It Forward

By 40 comment
Surely, most of the time when you switch on the TV, surf the net or turn on the radio in the car, you are confronted with the suffering around the world. It is nothing new. Some of us may have just become numb to it. Simply overwhelmed. Overwhelmed with the magnitude of the need....

Inspiring the Next Generation of Dreamers

By 38 comment
When I was in school, I was mostly focused on getting good grades, earning my degree and landing a decent job in the tourism industry. Deep in my heart, I did have the desire of becoming self-employed and earning my living by doing what I love – the way that I saw fit. Nevertheless,...

The Quest for a Personal Photographic Style

By 37 comment
  The keyword for me in this title is quest. It takes time to develop and hone a unique style, but most of all it takes authenticity to make it truly personal. I, like many photographers, in the beginning tended to take pictures and edit them like other photographers in the industry. I guess...

Entice Inspiration, Foster Creation

By 59 comment
Inspiration & creativity – these are the two words that make my heart tingle. In my opinion, they are undeniably interlinked by means of inspiration being a vital catalyst for creativity – a way in which an idea can be metamorphosized into existence. One of my favourite books from 2015 is “Big Magic” by...

Dream Big, but Wake Up and Make it a Reality

By 24 comment
There is a dreamer in all of us. The only difference is that some of us decide to pursue our dreams tenaciously while the rest of us shrug it off and continue taking the path laid out right in front of us. In which camp do you reside? A couple of years ago, I...
