zurich, switzerland 

freelance director, photographer, observer.

i direct and shoot nonfiction films for brands and organizations, combining documentary storytelling with strong visual aesthetics.

guided by instinct, shaped through collaboration, always with a curious eye and an open heart.

besides the obvious, i'm excited about maps, ice cream, 1950s music and rainy weather.

cheers,
arno
