My philosophy
Gently guided, never staged.
As your wedding photographer I stay in the background, read your dynamic and only step in where you need me. That creates room for what is alive between you, without staging, without tension. You move naturally, touch each other the way you always do. I capture what happens: quietly, precisely.
What remains are images in which you and your family will recognize yourselves for generations.
Who I work with
Your photographer
To me, wedding photography means capturing your day in all its truth: calm, natural, and in colors that match reality. So that later, you can relive your wedding day exactly the way it felt.
With empathetic documentary work and restrained direction, I create room for what is between you. Images that feel like you, not like a photo appointment.
Classic or same-sex, twelve guests or two hundred, I accompany couples who know why this day matters to them.
Yours, Michael
Six facts
I have photographed weddings since 2014, more than 100 couples have trusted me with their day. And at every single one, I am still as focused and fired up as at my very first.
I grew up in the aviation industry. Maybe that explains my soft spot for remarkable places, from city palaces to airplane hangars.
I am a bon vivant. It starts with the wedding cake and does not stop at a good glass of wine.
I even have bartender training under my belt. So yes, I will appreciate your signature cocktail.
I recharge by running, snowboarding and riding my mountain bike across Vienna's flatlands. The mountains are on the schedule far too rarely.
Yes, I photograph all couples. Love is love.
“You were so unobtrusive throughout, and still captured stunning images of our big day. Right now our wedding album is the most admired piece among our friends.”

How it works
Every wedding I accompany is individually designed. The focus is not on hours or packages, but on a coherent experience of your day, so you can relax while I take care of your story.
A no-obligation call about your wishes, your story and your timeline. You get clarity on how everything works, and you can check whether the chemistry is right.
A calm presence at your side. I stay in the background when real moments happen, and give gentle, clear direction only where you need it.
Within 24 hours you receive a selection of the finest images. After 14 days, the full gallery follows, including the first draft of your album.
Together we design your handcrafted album from an Italian manufactory. A one-of-a-kind piece that preserves your story for generations to come.
If you wish, we meet again: for your anniversary, a family session or other milestones.
What you receive
Your first images the day after your wedding, ready to share with family and friends. The full gallery follows after 14 days: in true colors, no presets, no filters.
Photography in a natural atmosphere where you can let go. A clearly structured timeline, professional preparation, no stiff poses.
Individually designed, handcrafted in Italy, with a lifetime guarantee. This is what your children will hold in their hands in 20 years.

Common questions
No worries, most of my couples feel unsure in front of the camera at first. With my calm manner and gentle direction, I help you focus entirely on each other, so natural images can emerge.
Within 24 hours you receive a sneak peek. The complete gallery follows within a guaranteed 14 days, including the first draft of your wedding album.
In addition to wedding photography, you can book a wedding teaser of about 3 to 5 minutes. I am happy to show you an example in a personal meeting.
You can add extra hours at any time, each additional hour is €200. I will actively check in with you as soon as extra hours come up and get your approval first. No surprises when the party runs long.
A deposit of 50 % secures your date. The balance is due 30 days before the wedding. Cancellations within the final 30 days are billed in full. Besides bank transfer, you can also pay by credit card and collect points.
We will absolutely take photos on your wedding day. There is always a roof, a passage, a sheltered corner, and rain images are often among the strongest of the day.
On top of that, my fair-weather rule applies: should it truly pour all day, or if you simply wish for additional photos in the sun, we reshoot your couple portraits in beautiful weather. Free of charge, you just slip into your wedding attire once more.
Yes. Love is love.
