activity

Its natural and graphic style is the result of creative intuition and an understanding of light and composition. He creates an informal atmosphere for extraordinary, but above all honest pictures. Staged portraits, but also sensitively photographed stories can be found in his portfolio. Since he works with a network of specialized partners, Claus offers comprehensive production management from a central source, which demands the highest quality in support and organization for all elements of a shoot. He works for German magazines and agencies and photographs corporate communications for many leading companies. Claus speaks both German and English and enjoys traveling around the world for his customers. In November 2017 he took over the chairmanship of the BFF region Baden-Württemberg.
