About & Contact

My love for words and pictures started a long time ago. I wrote my first story back when I thought my cat could read; and my Fisher Price camera died of abuse.

After spending 10 years in New York shooting films as a cinematographer and doing portraits and art photography, I moved back to Europe in 2007, where I finally started writing for a living, and, unabated, continue to photograph people when they’re not looking – hoping to catch a secret or two.
