I love stories and I love telling them using my pictures. However, the reason why I started photography was that I just wanted to take some good selfies. I still take selfies but nobody will recognize me there. Photography has become a lot more for me than a means to an end. It is the expression of my art, my feelings, and my fantasy. Since I can remember I love the stars and it was only natural to start with star photography.

My inspiration comes mostly from movies and also computer games. I don't take inspiration from other photographs that often and I cannot really tell why, but I think maybe because it is easier to get a story and a feeling from a movie or a game than it is from stills.

Star photography requires a lot of patience. You need to plan everything beforehand. Everything has to be perfect. The location, the weather, the motive and the direction of the sky. But it's not only that. My pictures become more and more complex, so sometimes, it takes hours, even days, to edit a single photograph to get it just right. But the end result is always worth it.
