David and Ruth’s wedding day was such a celebration of God’s goodness and favour. I met Ruth about 10 years ago. We kept some contact and eventually reconnected via facebook. When she realized that I had moved back to Germany, she contacted me whether I would be willing to cover her and David’s wedding. Of … Continue Reading

This is the first blog post that I categorize as “travel”. More to come! I mixed DSLR and cellphone images for this post. Shofar Christian Church hosted another fellowship weekend in Melchtal, Switzerland, this weekend past. I flew in after work on the Friday, got from the airplane via the luggage handout to the train … Continue Reading
The Shofar Global Newsletter is out, and it’s all about Convergence 2012 (where I also took some photos). Here’s the link: http://www.shofaronline.org/globalnewsletter/2012/newsletter-octnov2012.html. You can also read my restoration testimony in the “mega grace update” section. I got SO excited when I saw all the photos of the different photographers together. It reminded me of what … Continue Reading
Don’t you just love those spirit-of-the-moment excursions? Aren’t those the best days ever? Yesterday, I decided to get out of the city for a while and drive to the sea – in 0°C. It was cold, windy, and awesome. The whole area was full of fog, but the sun tried very hard to make an … Continue Reading

I had the HUGE privilege of being in South Africa for Shofar Christian Church‘s annual Convergence Conference. On top of that, I was asked to take some photos at some of the sessions – and what a blessing that was! For me personally, this conference was part of a restoration process: A few years ago, … Continue Reading

Yes, this blog has been a little quiet the past few months. I think sometimes when big changes happen in your life, you need to take a step, look at things, and re-prioritize. At least that’s what happened with me. This is my first attempt at photographing fireworks. I had the privilege of seeing two … Continue Reading

As photographers, we keep on learning constantly. With this very spontanous shoot I learned that sometimes, breaking the rules of photography is fine, good even. (This shoot happened in bright daylight.) Elton is a friend of mine, and it was his birthday recently (happy birthday!!! … again). Tracy is his sister, and one of the … Continue Reading
Of all the people supporting me in life, my Dad is certainly the one with the biggest portion. He’s not the in-your-face kind of person, but definitely someone who will make a plan and a way. During my recent visit home, we had a nice long chat. He encouraged me to keep on going like … Continue Reading
This is a post of a different kind. Today, 6 years ago, also a Saturday, I spent the day on a LTU airplane and landed at Cape Town International Airport at about 10pm. The flight itself wasn’t that great, but the last half hour in the air felt like I was coming home. Over the … Continue Reading
