Patreon 2025 update (mobile presets, pricing, postcards)

Hello! <3

We're 10 days into 2025 - I hope you've been good so far! In this video I want to give you a little update. Instead of writing it all in a long post that you probably don't feel like reading anyway, I thought it would be better to have a brief chat with you so that you can just listen to me while doing something else.

In...

I discovered a new colour grading technique. (works for photos too!)

New year, new me, new you?

Hello and happy new year! :)

I hope you're doing well and got a good start to 2025. In this little update post I want to address just a couple things including one question for you :D

First of all, I want to say thank you, thank you so much for the massive support here on Patreon, I am so so grateful! I'm so happy that all the work I...

December Preset: Yoyogi Faders

Hello and happy new year! <3

I hope you've had a lovely end of the year and could start off 2025 feeling fresh :D

I got to visit my family, spend some time at home again and see some old friends, because we're all back in our hometown for once haha. And then the last couple of days I was back in the studio reeeally busy working on...

My favourite effects in Adobe Premiere Pro (and what they do)

November Preset: Dark tones of Tokyo

For the month of November (apologies for the delay!!) I decided to craft a very moody look that you can apply to your photos. This look is based on a couple photographs I shot in Tokyo on a rainy day. There are so many fun ways to enhance the look of a rainy photo and one of them is exaggerating the dramatic atmosphere of the rain by toning the ...

November Update.

Hello hello and happy December!

I hope you've been well and had a joyful month of November. I've been busy with my return to Austria and just finished the last video for the month.

Unfortunately I was not able to squeeze in the work for the November preset and Patreon-video, so those will be coming soon, but give me a little time ple...

September LR-Preset: Asagaya

Hello hello! :)

I hope you're well and have enjoyed a splendid September. It's time for an update and of course this month's LR-preset.

September for me was really cool. Two friends came to visit in Tokyo and we went on two day-trips and a photography walk in the city.

I finished the last Scotland video and began working on the...

July Patreon Update!

Hello hellooo! I just want to pop in for a moment to give you an update on this month's Patreon content. I'm so sorry, but it's coming a little late :,((

I've already shot the Patreon video, but the edit isn't finished. Similar situation with the Lightroom preset. The issue is that I've been non-stop working on a big project since returnin...

An introduction to the Patreon page.

Hello and welcome to my Patreon! :)

To all Patrons who've been here for a while: You will know most of this, but I wanted to make an introduction video for the newcomers, because now that the Patreon page has been maturing for quite some time, it can be a little overwhelming at first. I'm pinning this video at the top of my page, so that t...

June LR Preset: Warm evenings type look

Hello hello,

June is already over eh? Well that went very fast, for me at least. In mid-June I went on a hiking adventure with a friend, which was going to become a video. This past week now I was very busy finishing up that video, which you might have spotted on YouTube already by now :D

The past weeks have been very work-focused an...

May LR Preset: Fuji FURUI 400

Hello! I hope you've all had a decent May! <3

Mine was pretty cool. Started with meeting a couple old friends and then had mostly a lot of work to do throughout the month. I was working on the videos of course, but also on the short film I shot back in February. I finally began editing and have made some progress, but I'm far from finis...

February Preset: The Rattenberg Preset

March is around the corner, so time for February's Lightroom preset! I've decided to derive a preset from the photographs I showed you in my recent video in which I visited Austria's smallest town, Rattenberg.

For these photos I went for a stylish, yet not super stylised look with a touch of film-like colour grading. This preset gives you ...

I made a new short film: Teaser, life update, work update, recent films I watched - a casual conversation.

January Preset: Expired DM Paradies 200

We're coming close to the end of January and so it's time for another preset. For this month I've decided to make a simulation of the very first 35mm film I ever shot - DM Paradies 200.

DM is just the normal drug store here in Austria and they used to sell consumer film and currently still offer film development. Back in the early 2000s wh...
