Michael has just enjoyed creating pictures for the renowned German cookbook publisher Christian Verlag that shows excerpts from his 2014 cookbook Das Burger-Buch: Einfach 'n Bissen besser (Simply ´n bite better!), that has been released just in time for the Frankfurt Book Fair. Tino Kalning and Ann Raab did the food styling for this project.

Michael also works for leading advertising agencies such as Leo Burnett, Ogilvy & Mather, Publicis and international companies such as Lufthansa Sky Chefs and Nestlé, among others.

Both his professional work and his personal projects showcase Michael’s joy and skill in creative and experimental photography. His explicit attention to detail and enthusiasm for the perfect light gives him a true photographer’s eye.

Michael shoots in his own studio or on location with close cooperation from a well-rehearsed team of stylists and food stylists. He is also a member of Germany’s professional organization for photographers and DOPs, BFF.

Beyond Frankfurt, Michael is very well connected to rental studios in Munich, Düsseldorf, Hamburg and Berlin.
