About Me

I’m Simon, a Germany-based photographer drawn to the shifting vibe of the city. I walk the streets to capture fragments of everyday life - from spontaneous street moments to creative, cross-genre experiments. This site is simply how I see and respond to the world around me.

 

A shot’s there to tell a story, maybe it’s blurred or overexposed. That’s the streets for you - imperfect and alive.

What drives me

Over the years, I’ve shot everything from astrophotography and wildlife to nature and sports. But street photography is what stuck. That said, I’m always open to different projects and new creative challenges that push my way of seeing things.

What catches my eye

For me, it’s all about those unique, fleeting moments. In street photography, nothing happens twice. You either catch it, or it’s gone. It’s about being present, reacting fast, and trusting your instinct. That’s also why I don’t care much about gear. It’s about attention to light, timing, and atmosphere. In the end, only the final image matters - not the camera it was shot on.
