Katrin & Robert | Istria

Beginning of November I had the honour to participate as a guest speaker on a wedding photography workshop of Henry Welisch and Martin Hofmann. Both of them are excellent wedding photographers and explosive amount of fun :-) We've arrived one day earlier to hang around the stunning archipelago in the very south of Istria and take some nice photos of this epic couple.

Here is also a magnificent video of Daniel Gollner. Goosebumps guaranteed! :-)

 

 

Marina & Kevin | Föhrenberge

When I firstly visited the natural park Föhrenberge, I couldn't believe that I am on the very edge of Vienna. The amazing pine tree forest was planted during Maria Theresia reign, and it reminds more on a Toscana landscape. I will photograph the wedding of Marina and Kevin next year and I am very happy that they agreed to shoot on this spectacular location.

Poorva & Ryan | Schönbrunn

I am always happy to photograph international couples here in Vienna. Poorva and Ryan will marry next year in Canada, and decided to have their engagement shoot in the gardens of Schönbrunn. The weather was not as one would dream of, but the laughter and love of Poorva and Ryan, turned it into wonderful forenoon. I wish them all the best, when tying the knot next year :-)

Katrin & Fabian | Bad Pirawath

Monday weddings are great to photograph, everybody's sitting in the offices waiting for TGIF, and you accompany this madly in love lovebirds on this beautiful early autumn day. Ok now I shut up before I get a poke :) 

But anyway there are three things that I will remember from this wedding:

  1. How much Fabian appreciated his wife, for her care, support and beauty

  2. How much love Katrin invested in the preparation.. There were countless little details scattered around the park, that were thoughtfully picked and hand-made by Katrin. The whole park looked like a fairytale in the middle of a city.

  3. Brides! Why to wear a wedding dress if you can wear a jumpsuit :-)

Also big thanks to Kirsten Zelle for the beautiful natural flower world she made

Karen & Martin | Saalbach-Hinterglemm

Another wedding, that proves that Austria is exceptionally beautiful country. The preparations took place in Wiesergut hotel in Saalbach-Hinterglemm, a great combination of tradition and timeless design. Thanks to their friendly staff, that even took care of me, after my little encounter with a glass wall :-)

The party was then relocated to Wieseralm, with the beautiful view over the mountains. If you are into indie-rock you shouldn’t miss the easy-going sound of Impala Ray. They gave a great gig and kept the party going in the early morning.

Wish you all the best on your journey K+M :-)

Location: Wiesergut / Wieseralm, Band: Impala Ray

Ana | Musician

When speaking about organ music, I always imagined this old, grey guy sitting on the bunch of furniture. Ana is definitely not this type of guy. Apart of being supertalented musician, Ana is always full of joy and her Colombian esprit cannot be missed. We have photographed her profile pictures in the Universität für Musik und darstellende Kunst Wien and Markuskirche. Check out her ensemble Arte Sonora.  

Do you also need personalized profile photos, that will differentiate from the grey mass of traditional business portraits. Send me a request now.
 

Verena & Markus | Kitzhof

I Firstly met Verena and Markus while photographing wedding of their friends. This time, the groom and best man exchanged the roles :-)

The beautiful nature of the Kitzbühl region is breathtaking. The civil wedding took place already on Friday on the Kandler Alm, which offered some wonderful views on the brides hometown. Surrounded by green mountains, one feels so small.

The getting ready took place in the amazing Design Hotel Kitzhof, a perfect example how to link tradition with fresh design. The couple wished for photographing the portrait session at Schwarzsee. The combination of the rough mountains as backdrop, blue sky, yellow boat and beautiful wedding gown of the bride was simply epic.

The party moved on in the early morning supported by the great Veit-Club band.

I wish the couple many happy years together and want to thank to all guests for the great atmosphere.

Location: Kitzhof, H&M: Gerlinde Dittrich, Band: Veit-Club, 

“We just wanted to thank you for your creative and romantic photos. Friends and family were amazed by your photos”

Maria & Osvaldo | Maritiman Goteborg

I you are in Sweden you should definitely visit the Maritiman Museum in Goteborg Sweden. I dare to say that it was the most interesting and entertaining museum I have ever been to. It presents several original ships, the most interesting was the Smaland destroyer and the submarine from the cold war times. I was happy to meet Maria and Osvaldo a sweet danish-mexican couple who just parked next to us and were crazy enough to spend an afternoon with a stranger claiming to be a photographer. Thanks for your patience and trust. But now let's immerse in the deep waters ... 

 

Alexandra & Christian

Wir haben uns mit Alexandra und Christian zum ersten mal auf einer Hochzeit ihrer Freunde getroffen. Das Bild vom auf dem Boden kriechenden Christian bleibt immer in meiner Erinnerung J.

Echt lustige Typen habe ich mir gedacht und ein Jahr später saßen wir schon im Schanigarten und planten ihre Hochzeitsfotos.

Alex und Christian haben sich entschieden wörtlich auf einer grünen Wiese im südlichen Niederösterreich zu heiraten. Ausserhalb eines Karpfenteiches und Bäumen war nichts da. Ich nehme Hut ab vor dem Brautpaar, Familie und Freunden die soviel Energie und Leidenschaft reingesteckt haben um diese traumhafte Hochzeitslocation vorzubereiten.

Es war der heißeste Tag des Jahres und die herum wachsenden Bäume boten angenehmen Schatten. Zur Trauung hat der Brautvater die Braut in einem Ruderboot begleitet. Das türkisgefarbene Wasser des Teiches war das perfekte Hintergrund für die Trauungsfotos.

Das Agape und Party fand in einem aufgebauten Partyzelt. Der Höhepunt war die Hochzeitstorte mit den Comicshelden die meisterhaft vom Sam Cake gebacken wurde. Die ganze Hochzeit war mit liebevollen Details geschmuckt die das Paar charakterisierte.

Am abend ging dann die Post ab, und die Freunde lassen kein einziges Haar an sich trochen.  Vielen dank an alle für die tolle Stimmung und dass ich bei dieser tollen Hochzeitsparty dabei sein könnte.

Auf Alexandra und Christian habe ich bewundert, dass sie nichts aus der Fassung bringen könnte, und wie sie ihr Leben mit vollen Zugen genießen und immer für jeden Spaß zu haben sind. Beurteilt selber…

Victoria | Prater

Victoria is a lovely lady from Moscow, which among many other things does studying, modeling, wedding videography and even audiobook reading (oh yes she has a sweet voice :-) I am very happy about this pictures, as they characterize how I feel about photography - honest and simple. I am very thankful that we could meet with Victoria, and spent refreshing creative forenoon together.

 

Prewedding Shoot | Wiener Altstadt

Alexandra and Christian totally nailed it last Sunday. They completely ignored the heavy shower at the beginning of our  shoot and enjoyed their time together as on their very first rendez-vous. Their laughter and esprit is absolutely contagious. See you soon on your wedding party guys, and I know it's gonna be crazy and loud :-)
