FASHION & BEAUTY PHOTOGRAPHY Nov 2010

Uwe Koerner is a freelance Romanian photographer who lives in Germany. He specialises in fashion and beauty photography.

Clients include Elle, Freundin, Burda Style, Porsche, Baur, Adidas, Rich & Royal and Patrick Sonberger.

Uwe enjoys conducting his shoots and adores having models dressed in beautiful dresses and lavish make-up. Above all, he loves to experiment, using a lot of double exposures and mirrored reflections to add a mystical feel to his images. He also shoots using material as a filter to veil, conceal and make things non-descript.

Uwe explains that he uses the medium of photography to express himself, as even though painting runs in his family, "I don't know the first thing about painting or drawing."
