I live in Squamish, located between Vancouver and Whistler (British Columbia, Canada). For me this is one of the most beautiful places in the world.

Originally from Germany, I travelled a lot through almost all continents but finally settled down at a place where I found the real beauty of the nature, weather for all seasons (ok, a lot of rain as well), really nice people and literally "Sea to Sky" right at my frontdoor.

Besides taking photographs I still love to travel.

I also like to get in contact with nice people.

Photogear (all Canon):

Bodies EOS: 5D Mk IV, 5D MK II, 7D Mk II, 30V (ELAN 7NE, yes, I still do film!)
