Darius Ramazani has been involved in a project to promote the 'Kältebus' (Cold Bus), a service organised by the social welfare group Berliner Stadtmission (Berlin City Mission). The Cold Bus tours the dark streets of Berlin on freezing nights to give homeless people a lift to the warmth of a local shelter. Darius photographed the 74-year-old Heinz, who has lived on the streets for a number of years, during which time he has experienced many dangerously icy-cold winters in the German capital. Heinz is indebted to the invaluable charitable support offered to him, and many other homeless people in the same situation, by the Berliner Stadtmission. 

Darius has also been working on a photo shoot for Hartmann AG, a Germany-based provider of medical and healthcare products. In his distinctive style, Darius photographed a variety of portraits of elderly people, focusing on the theme of skin and age.

Darius Ramazani recently took photos on the coast of Turkey for a new image campaign for travel company Öger Tours. The shoot focused on the company's image change from that of a travel business for all-inclusive holidays to one specialising in individual trips.

Creative directors Thorsten Müller (art) and Marc-Oliver Drescher (text) planned the campaign. The concept has people on holiday, with a couple at the beach and a man hiking in the mountains, while Turkish people show the tourists the best of their country.
