Gregor Fischer
I was born in Berlin 1989, when the Berlin wall came down.
Photos from back then still move me and ever since I wanted to tell the stories of the world in pictures.
Trained as an editor and cameraman I became interested in journalistic photography. Since 2011 I have worked for various newspapers and magazines. In recent years I have been a permanent freelancer for the german news wire service -dpa- and working as a photographer for companies as well as NGO’s.
Nowadays I try to shift my focus more and more from news to documentary photography with a new approach driven by a genuine personal interest and less preconceptions.
