Hendrik Krönert

I was born 1975 in Erlangen, Germany. My interest for photography began in 2006 when I joined deviantART, where my then spouse showed her artworks. In the following months I got more and more attracted to photography. The wish arose in me to be creative as well and I bought my first camera and since then some others followed. In 2009 I started photographing models, for the beginning portrait and fashion pictures, but I was very fascinated by nude photography since the beginning of my photographic journey.

I want to show people as they are. Pure. Without make up and without disguise. Except when I have special ideas. Strength and vulnerability of a person are displayed best this way in my opinion. Also are wrinkles and scars something that belong to a person, they tell stories of the persons life. Clothes distract from the essential. For some ideas and series I use disguise and masks wittingly though to provoke and to make the viewer thoughtful.
