Anja’s Bio

I love working with people, capturing the unique moments in their lives, treasuring very special memories for them, showing them the beauty in their natural self. 
My superpower is to connect at ease with people. This allows me to highlight and generate the best in people. In the process we have fun! And I deliver the results you are after. 

I love reading, love personal development, taking pictures and to travel. Educating people about gaining better health  – naturally, without slaving themselves in the gym or with unsustainable diets. 

Many many life experiences later I have come to learn that each year, or month, or week or day or moment, a more beautiful transformation takes place within me and as an effect touches my encompassing network of community better and more efficiently.
I love living a healthy lifestyle with highly nourishing wholefoods – more details here at Health & Wellness.
I love having fun, chats and activities like exercising for well-being, hiking or road trips with my kids and friends.
Keeping up with current trends, grounded by history and culture.
I’m a social connector and thrive with people.

My professional Photography career started in 1996, with a traditional 3 year apprenticeship in analog photography in my hometown of Berlin. Definitely so ‘Last Century’.
Growing up in a restrictive 70s East Germany and escaping in 1989, completing school (yet again) in West Germany with the ticket to ‘freedom’ and choice, I spent a couple of years travelling and living around the Middle East and Australia, followed by my photography trade training. 
The completion of my photography studies and hands-on biz training in 1999, saw the explorer in me calling out, yet again: Go, seek ‘new-to-you’ lands, explore New Zealand. 
I listened, I migrated, and here I am! …more than a couple of decades by now….almost a Kiwi. Yeah nah.
