Hi! I’m a photographer & filmmaker from Germany, currently based in Melbourne, Australia.
My interests are environmental & ethnographic storytelling, documenting interactions between people and the natural world. I love creating images & films underwater, and I’m trained in Scuba & freediving.
When I’m not behind my camera, you can find me at the beach or planning my next trip to dive with sharks.

Teaser Sequence "Salt in their Veins"
A scene from the short film "Salt in their Veins"
East Indonesia. Communities of sea people live a life that ties them closely to the marine environment. They are known as Bajo, descendants of former sea nomads who were once roaming the ocean to fish and trade.
While the short film portraits the Bajos’ deeply rooted relationship with the sea, it also shows the concerns of small-scale fishing communities heavily relying on healthy eco systems to survive. Impacted by overfishing, marine pollution, environmental threats, and biodiversity loss, their lives have changed drastically over the years.
Some individuals turn to harmful fishing methods, that have devastating effects for the health of the reefs.

SEA-RENITY - Freediving in Cornwall
Переглядів 10 тис.2 роки тому
A portraiture of women in Cornwall, whose lives have been changed for the better since they began freediving. From social to professional divers, they all share a deep connection to the sea and their love of being submerged in the cold waters around Cornwall. The film captures the experiences these women have had in the ocean - showing just how accessible freediving really is.
when doesn't the full movie come out sya rindu waktuku bersama komunitas seperti dia
Lovely vid. Im so interested in Freediving! I cant wait to learn 😊
very cool very femminine mostly in a world where men and women maybe inhabit the masculine not possible with the sea a beautifull surrender to the femminine 🌬️🌼🌼🌼
What is the maximum time you can hold your breath underwater? How deep can you free dive with or without fins?
🇩🇿✌️
I have been freediving since 1989 and because I am now a broken down, old ex-construction worker I feel a sense of healing for my entire body, head to toe, everytime I step into the ocean again to freedive. Ive always heard about how the minerals in the cold water are good for your joints, but it goes way beyond that, it heals my mind in ways Ive never been able to put into words. Gert Leroy (famous freediver) puts it this way; "I have found my peace". In this video you all have taken that to another level. I too have grown in my confidence because of freediving. I have had to overcome so many fears and self doubts. Now being underwater is my absolute "happy place", the place that I dream about constantly and long to get back to continually. I love this video and I love the sense of community that you spoke about, I wish I had that. Thank you for making this beautiful film.
I just started to love swimming and diving. Your videos are inspiring and serene. Love from far eastern Korea. ^^
Beautiful! I’m so glad I found this video! Five seals! 🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭
crying because all I need is to be in the sea, why am I not
Love this! I felt I belong here. What an amazing community you have. And would love to do this one day very soon! Thanks for sharing Rita.
Nice.
Nice film. Well done. The last comment resonated with me in particular - " it gave me the ability of being more true ". Perhaps that's why we do these things - free diving, scuba diving, motorcycling, whatever ....... to find or reach some basic truth or freedom in ourselves.
Found it relaxing
I suffer from PTSD and freediving has helped me recover in ways I never thought possible, ever dive no matter how deep, just leaves all that mental crap at the surface. When you look at the training, then look at what specialists are teaching you for mental health, freediving has it all there in one complete package, whether you dive or not. Lovely video thank you for posting :)
Really nice and precise. Thank you to explain so clearly what I feel, freediving.
Totally gorgeous and really sums up what we get out of freediving. Good on the girl in the dress shots - that must have been freeeeeeeezing!
this is sick! x
