Venice, Los Angeles, CA
Jens started taking pictures as a Kindergartener and hasn't left the house without a camera since his uncle gifted him a small Agfamatic (camera) on his tenth birthday. He kept photographing cars, landscapes and people all the way through high school and went through a 3-year training at an advertising studio in the early Nineties, which included 1-2 days per week of college attendance combined with shooting for commercial clients for the rest of the week.

What do you love most about your job?
Creating something beautiful that stands out from the crowd. Images too special not to frame and hang on your wall. Collaborating with clients, families and models to achieve the best photograph possible. The greatest feeling comes from seeing one of my photographs in a client's home, in a gallery, at an awards show, in a magazine or on a billboard, being able to share my passion for photography with others.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Having been taking photographs since my pre-teen years, I have always loved the creative side of photography. Spending a large part of my spare time as a child and teenager behind the camera, I loved looking at beautiful images of famous photographers, of subjects as varied as cars and animals, people and architecture, landscapes and still life photographs. Some of my favorites were Jacques Henri Lartigue, British automotive photographer Chris Bailey, William Eggleston, Helmut Newton and Andreas Gursky. After a three-year training to become a professional photographer, I moved to London to widen my creative horizons. From there, working with a number of renowned advertising photographers and on my own projects, I traveled the world on assignments before moving to California.
