Hi Friend!
I wrote this post during my PhD years ago. If it still helps you today, I’d appreciate if you take a 30 second detour to look at my current work in Science & Industrial Photography. It helps Google recognise my transition, which, in turn, would help me as an independent creator. I suggest
If you enjoy the intersection of science and aesthetics, I send a quarterly newsletter.
Many thanks,

Shooting on location in labs, factories, and research facilities, I bring more than a decade of experience working as an industrial, science, and corporate photographer – and a genuine curiosity about the processes and the people who run them.
What I enjoy about product photography is that through spending time with an object that otherwise gets overlooked as a mere utility, beauty can be found in unexpected places.
Making the extraordinary within the ordinary visible for others always is a very exciting process.
In the words of Arnold Newman, Portrait photography is 10% inspiration and 90% moving furniture.
It never ceases to amaze me how, by creating a carefully designed context for the subject (or: by moving some furniture around), photography can condense the many facets of a personality into a single image.
Industrial, scientific, and corporate photographer. Based in Telgte near Münster, within close reach of Osnabrück, Bielefeld, and the Ruhr area. Staff photographer at ZESS/University of Siegen. Working for research institutions, universities, and business clients across NRW and beyond.
