Schon als kleiner Junge nahm mich mein Vater mit in die Natur, in weit entlegene Täler, auf die höchsten Berge Südtirols, auf zu wilden Abenteuern. Er lehrte mich die Natur zu achten, zu lieben und zu respektieren.
Dort, wo wenige bis gar keine Menschen sind, fängt für mich Wildnis an. Diese Wildnis, unberührte Natur, hat es mir angetan. Ich suche ständig die Ruhe, die Einsamkeit und das Einswerden mit ihr und den Wildtieren.
Growing up in a small and quiet place, wildlife has always been a main source of interest and curiosity since my early childhood.
Nature was my playground, spending days looking for wildlife in the fields and forests next to my home, scribbling animals in my notebooks and day dreaming about encounters in the wild with them while sitting in the classroom.
I studied and graduated with honors with a BA in illustration, animation and graphic design.
After graduation I decided to try and combine my two biggest passions – animals and art, into a professional career.
I started creating animal inspired Jewellery.
Using photography as a tool to capture wildlife portraits as inspiration for my jewelry design I fell in love with wildlife photography and my life changed forever!
I started traveling to remote locations in order to try capture special nature moments and after a while I started guiding wildlife photography expeditions as well as working on my personal photography projects.
