NOT ANOTHER VERSION OF YOU.
SOMETHING CLOSER.
COME AS YOU ARE.
LEAVE WITH WHAT YOU FEEL.
Working with me isn’t about stepping into a role.
It’s about stepping out of one.
A space where the noise drops
and something real has room to surface.
No roles. No preparation.
No expectation to be anything other than what’s already there.
You don’t need to know how.
Just the willingness to be met.
Some come for photographs. Others come for recognition.
WHERE SOMETHING REAL BECOMES VISIBLE.
People come from different worlds —
artists, performers, individuals.
That doesn’t change the work.
Over the years, I’ve learned that the strongest portraits rarely come from control.
They emerge when someone feels comfortable enough to stop performing.
I don’t direct roles.
I remove what’s in the way.
My work is shaped by observation rather than perfection.
By atmosphere rather than instruction.
By noticing the small shifts most people overlook.
What remains is simple.
Human. Undistracted.
I guide when needed.
I step back when it matters.
This isn’t about being looked at.
It’s about being met —
without distance.
WHY THIS MATTERS
We live in a world that constantly asks us to perform.
To appear polished.
Certain.
Always visible.
Always “on.”
Many people are photographed often —
but rarely feel truly seen.
Not because something is missing.
But because too much noise has been added around who they are.
This experience moves in the opposite direction.
Slower.
More intentional.
Less focused on performance.
More focused on connection.
Not to create another version of you.
But to return to what already feels real.
HOW IT Works
Every collaboration begins with a conversation.
Not about poses or perfection —
but about atmosphere, feeling and intention.
Some sessions happen in the studio.
Others unfold in apartments, hotel rooms, quiet streets or meaningful places connected to your story.
The location matters less than the energy inside it.
There is no rigid formula.
No pressure to know what to do.
I guide naturally throughout the process —
creating direction where needed,
while leaving space for what happens between.
The result is not built around performance.
But around moments that feel honest enough to stay.
NOT JUST HOW IT LOOKED.
HOW IT FELT.
The most meaningful feedback I receive is rarely about photography alone.
It’s about recognition.
Comfort.
Trust.
And the feeling of being able to exist without needing to become someone else first.
A few words from people who stepped in front of my lens:
D &K: We keep looking at the photos again and again, and each time we’re amazed all over again.I’m so glad this idea came to my mind, and even more grateful that I found you to bring it to life. Not only because the photos turned out incredible, but mainly because you made that morning a truly special experience for us, and a memory we’ll carry forever.
Kristin: Sascha has the gift of seeing and feeling that “special” moment. His photos are extraordinary because they also tell the story behind them.
Johanna Setzer: Sascha sees things others overlook — and he has the most pleasant way a photographer can have.

IF THIS RESONATES
This experience is not built for fast content or surface-level perfection.
It’s for people who value atmosphere, emotion and honest connection over performance.
You don’t need experience in front of a camera.
You don’t need to prepare a version of yourself.
Just the willingness to slow down,
trust the process
and allow something real to unfold.
If that speaks to you,
we can begin with a conversation.
Based in Vienna. Available wherever the journey calls.
German or English—write in the language that feels most like you.
BEYOND THE SCREEN
Some photographs deserve more than a screen.
Not as content.
But as something physical.
Something that quietly remains part of your space and your life.
I offer museum-quality fine art prints crafted with attention to tone, texture and longevity.
Because certain moments deserve more than a temporary scroll.
They deserve a place to stay.
