Hi, I'm Barbara.
I'm a food, product and people photographer based by Lake Zürich in Switzerland.
I love photographs that feel natural, tactile and lived-in. Images that show not only what something looks like, but also something of the people, ingredients and process behind it.
And beautiful light doesn't have to be complicated. Sometimes one window really is enough.
Ready to photograph what you make?
Start with one product. One window. And the light you already have.
