Thomas Willig

I´m a freelance photographer based in Piding, Bavaria, Germany.
Originally from the Baltic Sea in Germany, I decided in 2013 to live in the US for at least a few years and take a big chance in my main job as a mechanical engineer – which now led to my long-term business goal to become a Project Manager.

After 3.5y and many precious life experiences in the USA, I moved back to Europe and are currently settling in the very South-Eastern corner of Germany right at the Austrian border.

The decisions to relocate were also driven by my need to travel and explore – which of course is a perfect combination for my love for photography.

I first developed my appreciation for serious photography while I was on my first big trip in life to Peru and Bolivia in 2008. Now, about 10 years and a lot of staged photo shoots, one lost flash unit, dirt in my lenses and sand grain in my camera later, I´m shooting with a full-format camera and am looking forward to all the incredible landscapes and the adventures they offer – as well as to the stories of the people who will come along! I´ll be ready with my camera…

And while I´m on my winding, rocky road of life through North and South America, Scandinavia and Europe, I´d like to share my moments with you.
