After completing her training as a media designer, Katrin Winner went to Nuremberg to study graphic design and photography.

She found her professional fulfilment by combining her passion for good food with her artistic creativity and has since worked as a food photographer.

Because of the farm her parents own and having worked there with them over the years, she knows exactly how much hard work and energy it takes to produce fresh and organic food, so she is always eager to work sustainably.

During her studies Katrin gained experience at well known food photography studios in Hamburg and Munich. After five years as a photographer, she decided in the beginning of 2018 to set up her own studio for food and still life photography in Munich.
