Enfuego
Alex CasarMarakesh feeling with Alex. Dark wood and a little roll around on the bed. Alex was a great model, somehow I unfortunately lost sight of her.
Reward Game
Anastasiia, Frankfurt, 2022A beautiful model in stockings in a hotel room. What more can you ask for?
Doorkeeper
Zoi, Wiesbaden, 2012Zoi became a real star model. I had the great luck to photograph her before she became famous.
Bonus: Coming Home
Saya, Frankfurt, 2012I had to re-work on a few more shots from this series, because these images felt too beautiful to be left alone in my drawer.
Distant Intimacy
Anna-She, Frankfurt, 2023In dating shows they always say that they want a partner who is well-groomed. Funnily enough, I had to think about that when I photographed Anna-She. She had done her nails, was freshly shaved and showered. And she has really beautiful skin.
Lion's Den
Anna, Paris, 2015For a photographer it is always best if the model understands art. And so does Anna. She knows what men like and enjoys to play with her charms. This makes capturing sensual images of her easy.
Double Vision
Vladi, Frankfurt, 2019Vladi is a real artist. I really like working with models, feeling and sensing art, embodying it in their movements.I just wanted to do something completely different in a hotel room, so I worked a lot with reflections and objects held in front of the lens.
Supernatural
Irina, Frankfurt, 2013Normally, I am not the biggest fan of silicon breasts. But there are exceptions! Irina had such a sexy way of presenting herself, I really dig these images.
Me by Myself
Melissa MendiniI had no idea what a huge fan club Melissa Mendini has. I owe her a lot because we worked together a lot back then.She came by night bus from the Czech Republic and I picked her up at the train station early in the morning.You could do a lot of nonsense with her. For example, we made this video where she was just holding a cable in her hand and I stuck a button on it. Whenever she pressed it, I triggered the flash. So simple and ki...
Bonus: Take me Out
Jelena, Paris, 2016 (2021)With Jelena I had too many beautiful photos, so I decided to create a short bonus series for you.
Deepest Black
Bastet, Frankfurt, 2015You will barely find a black and white set from me, because I love colors. But this was an exception. I wanted to try out the low light capabilities of my camera and had the idea with the black boots.
Stripe Me Pink
Vivian DuboisI'm pretty sure if I had met Vivian a little later or had been active for Playboy back then, she would have been a Playmate.So coincidences often play a role in life and it simply depends on the right time. But she is a great and lovely blonde also without the title.
Embobiné
Beladona, Paris, 2014When I visit Paris and walk up to Montmartre, I still look up to this beautiful loft and can't believe that I once worked in there. Beladona has a true French look that I really adore. Maybe you can tell that I picked the colors of the French flag for our shoot. I like a subtle play with colors to combine photos to a series. Nothing happens by accident.
Bonus photos: Unwrapped in Red
Sylvia, Frankfurt, 2021With beautiful models, I usually have more great shots than suitable for a photo series. So, here you go.
Death Wish
Alice, Fuerteventura, 2022A few years ago I took photos for Playboy on Fuerteventura with a longboard. That was so much fun that I really wanted to work with a skateboard for my own work.So I borrowed one and asked Alice if she could ride. She was as brave as hell and before I had all the pictures in the camera, it came as it had to come.She fell. Naked on the road. And she was bleeding. There was no first aid kit in the rental car. So I quickly ...
Self Service
Katharina, Frankfurt, 2014Since nowadays all people in the city only look at their smartphones, none of the passers-by noticed that in the laundromat a woman undressed naked. True story!
Endorphinated
When I was in Vienna for my shoot with Christiane, I happened to run into Niki Lauda at 7 in the morning as I was leaving. It felt so surreal what Vienna offered me.
The Hitchhiker
Kate, Mallorca, 2017Hitchhiking is not really in fashion anymore. But it works well for a road trip story. Kate is a wild girl and a good reminder that I should look out for a model with red hair again.
Forget Your Head by InAshton (long version)
The American band InAshton reached out to me and said, they love my pictures and asked if I could offer them some footage for their next song. They were a new band (in 2010) with no budget but Kamilka and I were willing to shoot some video stuff real quick.From today's point of view it seems a bit amateurish, but I worked alone, with the technical possibilities of that time and we filmed the whole thing in 30 minutes.Despite everything, I alw...
Perfect Match
Katharina, Frankfurt, 2014It is difficult to shoot nudes on a tennis court in Germany. Usually there are people and most of the time, the courts have advertisings hanging in the background. So, I had to ask for permission.And I got the permission from the University of Frankfurt to do the shoot on a Sunday morning if I was able to do it before 7:30am. That's right, I was asked to have taken my photos that early in the morning. So at 6am, Kath...
Unwrapped in Red
Sylvia, Frankfurt, 2021I adore Sylvia for being a natural, strong, intelligent and fun woman. She is lovely and I think it shows in the photos.
Caught in the Net
Thanni, Frankfurt, 2023Playmtate Thanni and I met for the first time last year at the Playboy 50th anniversary party. We connected quite well and when she was in my hometown to celebrate a friend's birthday, we hooked up for a quick shoot in her hotel room.
Ready to Rumble
Franzi, Berlin, 2016This was a perfect day. I flew to Berlin and the taxi driver was super nice, the boxing school empty and we were alone to shoot.
Eye Candy Tooth Ache
MiaI was so excited about my set at the time and then a guy I didn't know came up and said the costume jewelry looked cheap.Damn! He was right. And still it hit me. That's why this update video is called "Tooth Ache."It's not so easy to get a thick skin. But you only learn from mistakes (in this case, my styling).
Release the Beast
Sasha, Antwerp, 2014It was fantastic to work with Sasha. We clicked immediately and this is not always the case. She was absolutely into moving around like a snake, if I may say so. And I have never seen such an extreme hollow back. As if her spine was made of rubber.
Eye Candy
MiaMia has conjured up such a great eye makeup that I was virtually perforated by her looks.Working on 10sqm is not so easy, but this hotel room had a never empty fridge. I don't know how they did it. There were more than 20 cans of Coke and beer inside.
You Make Me Feel
Sylvia, Mannheim, 2020Imagine you wait in a hotel suite for the model and you look out of the window and can spot her down on the street wearing a short summer dress. This is what happened to me. I was so stoked to see her. When I opened the door, she had a pink FFP1 mask on her face as we were working in the pandemic.Our shoot was so great. The hotel suite looked somewhat different than I had thought, but who looks at the furniture when Sylvia i...
Safari Amusement Park
MarcelinaI used to make videos to all of my shoots in the past. It has become a bit more difficult these days as many models don't want to get filmed anymore. Maybe it has to do with them marketing themselves with clips from their mobile. Anyways, this is Marcelina back in the days.Music: Finally (just guitars) by HC-7
Trip to Paradise
Estrella, Fuerteventura, 2012This was my first application to Playboy Netherlands and I never received an answer from them. What a pity, because the model looks gorgeous. And she was such a sweet young woman.
Bonus: Dark Side of the Room
This was an experimental series by me where I went a lot further in post processing. I wanted to add a darker mood to the images with this technique, but usually I prefer natural looks.
