The intentionality with which Ulrich went into this shoot was contagious. No expectations, pure looking were the basis of his photographic Journey. Everything should belong to it, the weather, the location and I as I was.
No intention that now there come out particularly beautiful pictures, but a pure reflection of myself in view of his eye. I let myself fall into the silence and the moment drove us through the forest. We breathed the forest deeply...
*click*... *click*....
The result was amazing! So many faces of myself that were often hard to take in. Judgments slipped in front of pure contemplation, chains of associations shook me.
However, they became the basis of persistent self-exploration, in which I was allowed to confront myself with the photos and the self-images in my head.
I saw myself anew from the outside and learned to simply love the guy I was in so many facets. For weeks the pictures ran across my screen saver and a feeling of inner harmony with myself set in. As my judgment fell away more and more and I could just be with each image without judging.
Deep touch, to be seen so deeply, remained.
And a new look at aspects of my being that was waiting to be accepted.
Thank you Ulrich!
Taking pictures of me always felt terrible, as mostly I was treated like an object, and I simply didn’t like it. Moving with Ulrich has been such an organic dance where I could just be uncompromisingly myself.
I am so grateful for his work. I have the feeling that I can collect and revisit all the parts of myself that I have forgotten. It’s naked, raw, unfiltered, and freaking honest to be on this journey of exploration with him.
Ulrich is masterful at pulling out the invisible beauty without grasping at it. His attention and presence are unwavering, and focused, and it gives you so much freedom at the same time. He balances a tangible, grounded approach with deep, soulful work.
If you are ready to step into the entirety of yourself - mind, body, and spirit - Ulrich is your man to capture the beauty of you and reclaim your whole self.

From the very beginning i could feel the sacredness Ulrich held around this work.
That it was not just a photosession. The session it self felt guided, and was like a real theraphy. To experience so many aspects of myself, and then on top of that, to have pictures of these aspects that is looked into later on with Ulrich, is really something special.
it keeps working in me in various ways, the different images of what i am.
The overall theme of this journey became about getting more comfortable with anger and aggression. To see that this Force in me, does'nt look that dangerous when it’s expressed, but actually looks more natural. Images from the beginning of the session, reflects many unconcious attemtps to not allow the natural vitality of anger for instance, and with them i can connect and be honest with the parts that is afraid of that Force.
So very grateful for the opportunity, and i would like to do the journey again at some point.

Ulrich's mindful and love-filled manner made it easy for me to show myself completely as me in front of the camera.
Even sides that I did not like so much, i could acknowledge in this process and look at myself from a new loving perspective. This has shown me a view 'into my soul' that has touched me deeply.
Ulrich makes the soul of a person visible in its beauty and with all its facets.
Through this new perspective I got to know a new side of myself:
The Strong and Wise Woman who knows her Truth and stands up for it. So powerful. I can wholeheartedly recommend this „Journey to Yourself" through photography.

Thank you for the wonderful photo session with you!
As you know, as a professional musician, I am often forced to have photos taken of myself. Photos that show me from my supposedly best side and that, no matter how I really felt at the moment of the recording, radiate a good mood, and thus arouse interest in me and my music.
Thank you for letting me feel at our meeting, that you have no other intention with your being, your eyes and your camera than to see, feel and understand me and then capture and record me as I really am.
What a challenge for me was to allow and accept exactly that, and not to hide behind a glamorous mask!
Thank you for your empathetic, careful leadership, which created the space for it and was able to keep it open seemingly effortlessly.
What beautiful photos were taken in this way. Some at first glance strange and challenging in their loving openness and vulnerability. Some also work "Disturbing" in their clarity and healing incorruptibility. When looking at them, they often provoke tears and dismay, but also smiles and laughter. But they are always inspiring and inclined to listen to their echo in me and make friends.
They always convey the beauty of the true self.
Thank you, Ulrich, for this trip. Thank you for the day of the recordings in the foggy cliffs of the island of Møn, for the intensively guided debriefing and, above all, thank you for the gift to truly see myself at the sight of the pictures.

I went into the photo session with Ulrich with openness, without a goal or a specific desire. I was curious and maybe a moment a little nervous to show myself. To stand in front of the camera and behind it a man. However, Ulrich radiated a serenity and calm, I felt no expectation or agenda from his side, just openness and space to be me, to take my time.
We walked to the beach and to my surprise there was no camera shyness. Ulrich very rarely gave small impulses, which were helpful and gave the session a framework in which I was allowed to move, to let go. In the forest I could arrive deeper within myself, dared to show myself more.
Looking at the pictures later was a beautiful experience, touching and consistent with how I also felt inside that day. I like the pictures and the many facets they show of me: Curiosity, aloofness, playfulness, shyness, sadness, skepticism, openness...
A nice snapshot of the many inner workings of the last months, to see where I am right now and a bit also which topics are next... A touching experience of appreciation towards myself that made this session and the pictures possible.
I can so highly recommend this experience to all who dare to meet themselves.
I felt safe and free with Ulrich.

It was my first photo session and I felt curious about the experience, to be “seen” by the camera. In the beginning it was hard to feel completely at ease as it was a new situation and experience that made me feel a bit self aware. During the session I became aware of tension and some of my own limitations.
I felt safe and supported by Ulrich who invited me to continue revealing myself deeper throughout the session. I especially enjoyed going through the pictures together with Ulrich afterwards as he helped me to see myself through the pictures. Here I felt Ulrich was very patient and could offer clarity to interpretation of the expression of me in the pictures.
I found the dialog helpful to the process of revealing more depth and insight about myself. The pictures from the session offered support in seeing some of the changes I have gone through and to allow the new me to be more fully born. The pictures also helped me to see, meet and hold parts of myself that are dominated by judgment and hardness as well as to see the beauty and magnificence of myself as well.
Ulrich opens up a loving and safe space for you to explore different sides and aspects of your persona and real self. It's up to you how deep and honest you want to dive in the process. Ulrich is a very sweet, patient and professional man that has a lot to offer through the sessions.
In recent years I have been experiencing an inner process of change that is bringing me into contact with my essence. I'm very happy about that. But it was difficult to grasp "the new" or to get an image for it. That was also because I didn't like being photographed. I felt rigid and lifeless doing it. So I often avoided that.
The photo session with Ulrich came through the mediation of a good friend. "Go to Uli," he said, "there you can discover yourself and that's what you need." Already during the first phone call it became clear that it should be an in-depth session to discover what is inside me now? With openness, without expecting anything specific ... playing with the elements, just as they are on our day.
Our day took place in great summer weather in a forest near Hamburg. Spontaneously, Ulrich led me to an in-depth process with my ancestors, which he sensitively accompanied with the camera. At some point the camera wasn't important anymore. There was only the interaction of the two of us with the forest and the spirits that had been summoned.
The result was images that I had not expected. There were images that breathe my vulnerability and my strength at the same time. I could see my ancestry in individual images and find peace in them. And the child and the scientist, who both want to take a close look at everything and understand it, had also shown themselves. And an Andrea that is simply present with the forest and radiates an inner contentment.
Interestingly, I immediately liked all the pictures. It still took me a while, to let the pictures work and to feel what I had to feel. This, too, was sensitively accompanied by Ulrich. We had evaluated "the booty" together. He drew my attention to important details that had connected me even more deeply with the photos.
With this process I was able to experience that "the new" in my life includes the successful integration of the "old". Of what I had never considered or wanted to admit. I now feel a deep peace with my story and with myself. As a gift, I saw that I was already on my way with exactly that.
Thank you Ulrich!
…..other wonderful Souls who had the Courage to dance on this Journey of Exploration so open and honest with me.
A deep Bow to All of You !
