Plagiarism is the misappropriation of someone else's intellectual work. So obviously you can't plagiarize yourself. What do you call it when you imitate yourself? That's exactly what I did in this series.

Do you collect photo books? Have you ever held a book with little dots in your hand and perhaps thought they were printing errors? These are paper particles and in this article I will tell you how you can easily remove them.
The theme of women in nature is a classic motif. Despite everything, it is difficult for me. I have to admit that. I don't like photos that look too heavy. That seem too artistic. So somehow forced. I have to feel an image and sometimes this is very difficult for me with naked women in nature.
In the world of photography, you often hear about 18% gray. For a while, I thought it was the average color value of every single image, which seemed a bit odd to me. But what does this gray really mean, and why 18%?
Nothing in my photos happens by chance. And yet I allow myself a lot of spontaneity and I try out many things. Sometimes I throw the results away because I don't like them. My approach to my shoots is always similar.
Today, I'd like to make you a special offer. As you know, my photo book »Mellow« is very close to my heart. Now I thought: Why not combine business with pleasure?
In winter, when it's gray and dark outside, the mood is completely different than in summer. Perhaps you've felt that too. A candle inspired me to create my series with Kiki.
Classical image analysis in visual arts involves a structured examination of a work of art in order to understand its various elements, techniques and meanings. As I studied art, we will look at the pair of pictures Pink Painter together, today.
When I launched my Patreon channel just over a year ago, I had no idea how much it would change my work as a photographer. Today, I'd like to share my experiences with you and explain why Patreon has become so important for me and my art.
I have traveled a lot and have often worked abroad. So I asked myself whether it shouldn't be possible to stage a beautiful story where I live. To incorporate nature and shoot a short series.
Many know me as a Playboy photographer, but few are aware that I also offer private photo sessions. Today, I'd like to introduce you to this special opportunity.
Sometimes things turn out differently than you think. I hadn't actually planned the shots with Effy for the book. But as I was on the island a few days before her, I was able to do a bit of location scouting.
Finally, I have a little more to tell. Because this story is particularly close to my heart. Cheerleading as a topic. What a brilliant idea. I'm delighted that no one has thought of this before me.
I like it when women can dance. Dance is also a form of courtship in humans. I find it very appealing to watch a body in motion. When it moves with verve and the rhythm carries you along.
When I get upset about censorship and prudery, I always think it's just a modern-day phenomenon. I was reminded of the embarrassment of the music channel MTV in 1990.
If you ever come to the island of Ibiza, make sure you visit the rocks of Es Vedra. You won't be the only one. The place is usually a tourist magnet and yet the view from the cliff is absolutely captivating.
When I'm out and about for shoots, I often come across garbage. It never ceases to frustrate me and I don't understand it at all. It's an annoying topic.
Because they look much more realistic, night shots are now actually filmed at night. This is called night-for-night. But in my series with Effy I was inspired by the good old day-for-night style.
There is an old house in the forest that has been beautifully renovated. I photographed Viesta there. And accompanied her for a day with my camera.
As a photographer, my mission is to capture fleeting moments and give them permanence. Beauty is ephemeral, but a well-taken photograph can make it immortal. Do you feel the desire to collect beautiful images? Then I have just the thing for you.
Some of the pages in my book feel strange to me. I spend a whole day with a model on an island and still only get four pictures in the book. That feels odd.
As you can easily see from the title of the series, we are in Italy. In ancient Rome, to be precise. I never had Latin at school, but Dulce Periculum fitted in well as a title for this series for me. It means sweet temptation.
Music is the best way to get into a relaxed mood. When is that more important than during a nude shoot? To avoid always playing the same songs, I put together a new playlist for the production of my latest photo book.
The pretty chambermaid who is cheeky and seduces you. A forbidden scene in this day and age. So absurd that I simply had to take a slightly ironic photo series of this topic.
