Matthias Conrad

Nature and landscapes have always played an important role in his life. Matthias was born in the mid-1970s in a small town in Thuringia, on the edge of the Hainich National Park, in the middle of Germany, where he grew up very close to nature. Trips and vacations with his parents and grandparents often led to nature. He discovered photography very early on in his childhood when playing around with his parents' and grandparents' analog EXA and Praktika cameras, which were made in the GDR.

What started as a small hobby has developed over the years into his profession and his passion. Matthias' love of traveling also arose during his business studies. His fascination for landscape photography began with various stays abroad in Canada, Mexico, and the USA and their diverse landscapes.

In the meantime, this type of photography also plays a decisive role in his professional life. In addition to workshops and photo trips, he often travels to Switzerland, Austria, and southern Germany to produce work for commercial projects.
