Photoshoot Tenerife

Shooting Trip to Tenerife

When I was thinking about the Element Earth, two locations immediately popped up into my thoughts. Iceland and Tenerife. I haven’t been to Iceland yet, but I saw thousands of pictures on Instagram and I had a few friends, telling me stories from their Iceland trips. But I have been to Tenerife 8 times before and I could say it feels like coming home when I am arriving on the island. So I know the island like my hometown and thats why I decided to fly to Tenerife to shoot an editorial. I actually had this idea for quite a long time.

As some of you know, I’m also totally into Travel / Adventure and Documentary Photography, especially on Instagram. Thats why I was looking for cooperations on Tenerife, to visualize my project with some help. I organised two collabs for this trip to Tenerife. On the one hand with the Fujifilm – Instax Camera Team and on the other hand with the Iberostar Anthelia Hotel Tenerife. That was also the locations I shooted the hole water story as well. I sent a pitch with my Ideas to the companies and then I had them on board. Thanks!

I also partnered up with a model, Amelie Arndt from Munich and a good photographer friend, Kristina Hader from Ulm. Thanks god for having Kristina on board! She helped me with all her camera equipment, when mine got stolen on our first day.

Yes our car was broken up, but when I learned one thing while traveling the world the last years, it is the never-give-up-rule, when negative things happen. So I made the best out of it and saw the positive things in the negative situation. It worked out and I haven’t stopped creating on our shooting trip.
