I was born in an analog-time in the 70ies. In addition to the digital world of photography I found my way back to analog photography, which focuses the focus on the essentials again. Shooting on Kodak, Fomapan, Ilford, Agfa, Adox and on some special 35mm films like Silbersalz35 or Washi. My first contact with a camera was in my preschool years, where I always had what I think was a small white point & shoot camera from Canon with me in the summer months. There should still be a few of my childhood photos in the family archive, and I can also remember a self-portrait in front of a mirror. A Canon EOS500n with two lenses followed later in 1996. I still have the camera today and it is part of my analog ladies' collection on the photo wall. As I remember it, it all started with her. In my youth I went to techno events a lot, DJed and took photos in various clubs in Upper Austria and in Vienna in the old Gazometer towers. My photos were then published in a German music magazine, Raveline. Unfortunately, after moving to and within Salzburg, many of my photos and negatives were lost. Photography itself also faded somewhat into the background, but it reawakened my passion when digital photography and these masses of photos in the digital world made me remember how beautiful and simple the love of photography was. So after a long time, an analog film was inserted again a few years ago. Every film has its own unique and personal color and lightscheme. Whether black and white or color. And when it comes to self-development, I have a lot more leeway than if I were to give my films to a specialist laboratory. I develop almost all of my films myself at home and it is an amazing moment, every time I open the developer-can and hope that the pictures come to life. I try to stop the moment when I take pictures and give moments a piece of eternity,to make human nature more accessible.
