About

I was born and raised in a small town somewhere in rural Western Germany. Cows and sheep. That sort of thing. Later I was supposed to become a mechanical engineer. After one year I quit and started studying photography at the Fachhochschule Dortmund. I was also a semi-professional rally driver for four years. In 2002 I shipped a Land Rover from Germany to Buenos Aires and drove in six months from Argentina to New York, where I began studying photojournalism at ICP. I graduated in 2003 and since then have been working in Palestine, Japan, Chad/Darfur, Afghanistan, Indonesia, Pakistan and Lebanon. In 2005 and 2006 I spent about nine months in Iraq for the New York Times. I’m based in Brooklyn and represented by Agentur laif in Germany.

Douala, Cameroon car park

Hi there,

Does anybody have a friend in Douala?
I am looking for a place to park my beloved Land Rover here for one month.

Thanks.
Christoph.
