Moin! I’m Dominik, photographer and storyteller from Hamburg. Those who have been following me for a while will know that this account is pretty much faceless.
But there’s more behind me and this account than just pretty frames and the next few slides will show you exactly where it all comes from.
For more than 25 years, handball, rather than photography, was my true passion. Looking back, it’s where I first learned patience, and how to know exactly when a moment is about to happen.
I’ve been living in Hamburg for almost 11 years now. Even though there are moments now and then when I feel I’ve seen every corner of the city, whenever I stand by the Elbe with my camera in the morning, I fall in love with this city all over again.
One thing that really fascinates me about photography is the golden hour. Those moments when you can already sense the sky beginning to turn red, or when the first rays of sunlight create a mesmerising interplay of light and shadow, make up for every alarm I set in the middle of the night.
The other thing is the atmosphere when it’s raining, foggy or snowing. Some of my best photos were taken in conditions where 95% of people wouldn’t even think of leaving the house. But for me, a city suddenly feels completely new, different and, above all, unpredictable. In good light, I know what works, but in conditions like these, it’s simply all about the photography again.
But this isn’t my full-time job, so you won’t see a new country every month. When I do travel, it’s usually to explore the world with my girlfriend and our two boys. But of course, I usually have my camera with me, and I love showing the world as I see it through my camera lens.
Editing is very important to me, which is why I shoot everything in RAW and film in Log. Lightroom for the colors and cinematic look, Photoshop for cleanup. Every frame gets reworked until it matches what I saw in my head. Some edits feel right straight away, whilst with others it can sometimes take weeks before I get the right approach to the image.
I love trying out new tech, whether it’s accessories like filters, useful upgrades to my desk setup, cameras or exciting lenses. Above all, though,

Recap Pt. I
.
So langsam neigt sich das Jahr dem Ende entgegen und wieder sind einige tausend Fotos außerhalb Hamburgs dazugekommen.
.
Hat sich meine Fotografie dieses Jahr verändert? Auf jeden Fall. Aber egal ob es das Jagen des goldenen Lichts in Berlin oder Köln war, die verregneten Momente in New York City oder London, Architektur in Antwerpen oder die Natur auf Teneriffa; es sind Fotos, die mir zeigen, dass es nicht die eine Nische ist, die mich fasziniert, sondern dass es die Fotografie an sich ist. Was ich aber hervorheben muss, ist die Berliner Community. Wie herzlich ich dort bei meinem letzten Trip in die Hauptstadt aufgenommen wurde, ist wirklich toll gewesen. Danke dafür!
.
The year is slowly coming to an end, and once again, several thousand photos taken outside Hamburg have been added to my collection.
.
Has my photography changed this year? Definitely. But whether it was chasing the golden light in Berlin or Cologne, the rainy moments in New York City or London, architecture in Antwerp or nature in Tenerife, these are photos that show me that it’s not one niche that fascinates me, but photography itself.
.
But what I really have to point out is the Berlin community. The warm welcome I received there on my last trip to the capital was truly wonderful. Thank you for that!

Porto São Bento is more than just a railway station.
I went there to tell stories about how people try to catch their trains and to see the history of Portugal told on azulejos. Like so many others.
But then, for a brief moment at the morning, this place was bathed in a golden light and it felt like you‘ve stepped straight into a film set.
It’s a moment that, as a photographer, I can’t quite put into words, but it’s addictive and drives you to get up early, time and time again, just to experience moments like this.

Porto has another side to offer.
Most people come to Porto for the sunshine, the port wine and the view from the Miradouro da Serra do Pilar over the Ponte Luís I and the city.
But I was hoping for something else: the fog. I really love it when every corner of the city suddenly feels as though you’ve never seen it before. And the fog rolled in.
Is that just a photographer’s thing, or does anyone else have a soft spot for fog too? 😄

Lagos is not only about beaches.
When people think of Lagos and the Algarve, they tend to picture nothing but picturesque cliffs, golden sandy beaches and fine dining. I didn’t expect much myself, but it turned out that the town itself is also a beautiful spot for photography.
I loved walking through the narrow streets of the old town in the morning and watching life unfold at Praça Infante Dom Henrique. And there was always a play of light and shadow somewhere, which is something I particularly love in photography.
Have you ever been to Lagos?

Getting photobombed.
I think this title describes this photo taken in the Port of Hamburg rather well. I’ve certainly been to the Landungsbrücken nearly a hundred times over the last few years to take photos, but I’ve never before seen so many birds in the air at the same time, circling round and round and lending the picture a very special charm.
And it’s precisely these moments that keep drawing me back to the same places, so that I can capture such unique moments that you’ll never experience again.

One of the most beautiful photo walks you can do in Hamburg at sunrise at this time of year? Walk from Fischauktionshalle, past the docks and harbour cranes, to the Landungsbrücken, and then take the ferry back. I love it when the sun slowly rises behind the skyline, including the @elbphilharmonie , and you can let your gaze wander across the Elbe. And once you’ve reached the Landungsbrücken, you can almost always find a suitable puddle for a lovely reflection, can’t you?

11 Years in Hamburg - 11 photos I consider almost perfect.
Today marks eleven years since I moved to Hamburg. That’s why I’ve tried to pick out eleven photos from that time that I took and consider almost perfect. And to be honest, it’s about time I’d been living in Hamburg for twenty years, so that choosing the pictures becomes a bit easier 😅 But even then, there’ll probably still be 30–40 pictures missing. Not because they’re perfect, but because they remind me of photo walks with others or places I’d never have visited if it weren’t for photography.
But for now, you’ll have to make do with the eleven photos I’ve picked out today 😁
Thank you, Hamburg, for showing yourself at your very best over all these years and for becoming my second home 💙

Photography is often simply a matter of patience.
How many times have I stood at this photo spot in the Speicherstadt without anyone walking across the skywalk? But this time it was different. I was lucky enough not only to see someone walking past, but also to see him suddenly stop right in the middle of the bridge, as if he‘d spotted me and wanted to pose.
The depth created by the dark brick walls of the Speicherstadt, the golden light. At last I had the photo I’d always wanted.

Let’s travel to Portugal 🇵🇹
But not to visit Lisbon. Portugal has so much more to offer than just its major cities. Some of the world’s most beautiful beaches, scenic roads, charming villages and much more.
With this series, I’d like to give you a little taste of what the country has to offer, in case you’ve only had Lisbon and Porto on your list so far 🗺️
