Immersion PreFranchiseAbout
I am Martin and I am based in Berlin, Germany.
With an often evocative and suggestive photographic language, I use photography to explore ideas rather than document reality.
I am drawn in particular to subject matter that transports a message about the changing state of society.
My professional path will make no sense to the LinkedIn Algorithm. It is driven by the desire to bridge worlds and weave together different strands of business and creativity. Oddly that has made me one of the very few law graduates to have received a design award.
After having graduated in law with distinction, I spent most of my traditional career working in private equity where I could sharpen my observation skills from an economic angle, learning to understand the success factors of businesses across industries and companies. I then took that knowledge to bootstrap a software venture in the field of business insights and education.
Parallel to these professional pursuits, I have been increasingly swapping the computer for the camera lens, continuing my pursuit of photography, which started in the lab room at a high school exchange in California.
While to many, these fields seem worlds apart, what connects them for me is my curiosity to truly grasp the essence of subjects, whether they be the inner workings of industries or the transient beauty of the world through a camera lens. They are different verses of the same epic, whether this may mean utilising the analytical scalpel to decode the DNA of business success or using the camera lens to reveal the mystical in the ordinary.
So, here we are, at the crossroads of blending spreadsheets with snapshots, boardrooms with darkrooms, and strategy with creativity.
I am not highly active on social media. However, feel free to connect on Instagram or LinkedIn.
