On my shoulders, by the way, is our son Bela.<\/p>\n<p>I was born in\u00a01973 in Mainz, went to school in Worms, studied in Hamburg and Paris, jobbed as an intern in Rostock and Dakar and finally worked as a journalist in Bonn, Berlin and Sanaa. I&#8217;ve been living and working as a journalist and photographer in the middle of Kreuzberg for a few years now.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve worked as a reporter since I wrote my first article for the local daily newspaper in school. I discovered documentary photography when I started\u00a0to work as a <a href=\"https:\/\/klausheymach.de\/en\/\">wedding photographer<\/a>. My family photos changed, too, since I&#8217;ve shot\u00a0weddings.<\/p>\n<p>I have never been a friend of staged photos. But the fact that pictures tell a story, that they capture real emotions and those fleeting moments\u00a0\u2013 this is true for that \u00abbig\u00bb wedding day as well as for any \u00abordinary\u00bb day of your family life.<\/p>\n<p>Today, how much I&#8217;d love to browse in photos documenting those day-to-day rituals of my childhood. How did our breakfast table look when I was\u00a0three years old? How did our typical Sunday look back in the eighties? There is absolutely no reason to only have albums made after your vacation or travel. It&#8217;s the normal course of everyday life that deserves to be captured.<\/p>\n<p>Whenever I don&#8217;t photograph familys, I might bee shooting <a href=\"https:\/\/klausheymach.de\/en\">weddings<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/klausheymach.com\/en\">portraits<\/a>. When I\u2019m not behind the camera, you might find me strumming my ukulele, racing through the city on my bright red road bike, or cooling off with a swim at Prinzenbad. I\u2019m all about good coffee (decaf, believe it or not), homemade kombucha experiments, and anything tofu.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What\u00a0can beat &#8230; running piggyback in the autumn sun over a large park like Berlin\u2019s Tempelhofer Feld?
