Hi there! 

I'm an Austrian-born Visual Director passionate about transforming brands through Visual Branding and Editorial Storytelling. Based in Munich, I help international clients find their authentic visual voice through strategic Creative Direction, Photo Production, and narrative-driven campaigns.

From concept to execution, I blend Photography, Motion, and Brand Identity expertise to create compelling visual narratives for brands, magazines, and companies. My work spans Editorial Photography, Art Direction, Visual Content Strategy and back-to-back Photo Production for clients across Europe and beyond.

Experience includes:  Condé Nast, photo agencies in Germany and New York City, and international creative marketing teams working on global brands such as BMW and Volkswagen Group. 

My journey began at a local radio station in Graz, where I discovered my passion for Editorial Storytelling and pop culture – a driving force that continues to shape every project.

About


My visual approach is precise yet playful, with a strong emphasis on storytelling that is tailored to each project. Specializing in image strategy and visual identities, I help brands worldwide create striking, memorable impressions.

From concept to execution, I bring together visionary ideas and oustanding imagery, delivering powerful, cohesive results. Staying ahead of visual trends and pushing boundaries with fresh ways to present content across platforms is a constant drive for me.

    I get that storytelling is key, and visuals aren’t just pictures—they're a way to connect on an emotional level with the audience. The secret to nailing the right visual tone? It’s all about collaboration. I’ve built a network of top-tier creatives—from photographers to stylists to digital artists—who push me to keep evolving and inspire the next big idea.

    I love seeing and receiving new work from creatives and regularly participate in portfolio review sessions at the Society of Publication Designers (SPD) based in New York City. 

      My client and partners list includes BMW, BMW Group, Volkswagen, Condé Nast, Time Inc, Looping, C3, Liganova Mash, Studio Butik, Nansen & Piccard, Kärnten Tourism, Nantesbuch and more

    I am also the Co-Founder of the Now Now Gallery, an online hub for contemporary photography and a local collective called “Studio of Creative Danger”, a playground for creatives who don’t mind getting dirty and having a bit of fun while standing up for the right cause.

    Expertise

    → Photo Editor
    In my work as a PHOTO EDITOR, I have sourced 
    the most outstanding, powerful or unique images. 
    I have worked closely with editors to ensure the visual elements complement the written content and I have assigned many international photographers for news, magazine and corporate stories. 
    → ART PRODUCER
    As an ART PRODUCER, I have led and organized numerous photo and video productions, both in the studio and on location. 
    I’m good at juggling multiple projects, managing deadlines and budget and handling people, animals, agents and artists (animals being the least difficult group).

    → Visual Consultant
    As a VISUAL CONSULTANT, I have developed and conceptualized visual identities for brands and companies. Essentially, I help to shape the look and feel of a product that captures attention and leaves a lasting impression.
    I listen to clients’ needs and like to explore new perspectives, visual trends and mix it with traditional photography, supported by a vast network of talented artists.
