BFF Aufschlag Award Junior GOLD. Hamburg 09/2019 with the picture "I will be there for you"

About me

My name is Asja, I am a freelance photographer, born 1980 in Hamburg, Germany.

At the moment I am based in Hamburg, dedicating my time to photography at the intersection of portrait, fashion and art, both digital and analog.

I am a BFF Professional member since September 2016. In 2017 I was one of the selected participants at WEITSPRUNG, an event for upcoming young photographers, organized by Germanys leading Advertising Agencies. From 2018 to 2020 I was involved at the Der Neue BFF Förderpreis as mentor among a million other cool projects.

I graduated in photography 2015, with a special focus on cinematographic/continuous lighting. Since I am four years old I am involved with photography, spending my adolescence in the dark room developing my black and white negatives. Before I made my talent my profession I did a Masters in intercultural communication, adult education and psychology and was working for the German government in the field of international cooperation as project leader. It was an awesome job! I just love photography so much more, so I quit it and started a new life.

​

Due to living abroad in various countries I speak German, English, Spanish and Portuguese fluently. With French and Swedish I get by. I feel at home in South America as I have studied and worked there for longer periods of time, especially in Argentina and Brazil.

​

Apart from photography you can well talk to me about psychology, environmental protection, non-violent communication by Rosenberg, poetry slams, Tim Ferriss and table soccer. (just give it a try!)

I am curious, passionate and if its too clean and predictable it bores me. Photography to me is like playing together with other obsessed individuals, infusing my veins with happiness every day.

In the interview I get to talk  about a favorite job of mine from the past, what I liked about it and how we did it.

Acerca de mí

Mi nombre es Asja [Asia], soy fotógrafa artística y de moda, nacida 1980 en Hamburgo, Alemania. Trabajo en digital y en analógico.

Estudié fotografía en Buenos Aires con Aldo Bressi, Roberto Lozano, William Kano y Natasha Ygel entre otros. Mi especialización es en iluminación cinematográfica y escenografía. Soy licenciada en comunicación intercultural y psicología. He vivido en muchos lugares de este lindo planeta y por eso hablo alemán, inglés, español y portugués fluido. Con francés y sueco me manejo.

Soy curiosa, apasionada y me encanta ganarte en el metegol. La fotografía para mí es un juego divertido junto con otra gente obsesionada sin miedo de ser niño, llenando mis venas con felicidad cada día.

Desde 2016 fue aceptada como miembro Profesional en el BFF, una renombrada asociación profesional de fotógrafos en Alemania.

No dude en contactarse conmigo si quiere realizar producciones de foto tanto en América del Sur como en Europa.
