Behindthe lens

Life as a collection of sidequests.

Hey, I’m Kevin, a self-taught photographer based in Switzerland.

I’ve always loved travelling, meeting new people and collecting experiences along the way. Photography originally started as a way to capture the places I visited and the moments I wanted to remember. Somewhere along the way, it became something much bigger.

I’ve always liked the idea of treating life as a collection of sidequests. Taking unexpected opportunities, trying things I’ve never done before and seeing where they lead.

In December 2025, a spontaneous phone call from a friend led to my first paid photography job. I had never done anything like it before, but I said yes anyway. And that one decision opened doors I never even imagined.

Since then, photography has taken me to places I never expected, introduced me to incredible people and given me opportunities I wouldn’t have dreamed of just a year ago.

Today, my work ranges from fashion and portraits to events and commercial projects. I’m constantly learning, experimenting and looking to expand my creative skills into filmmaking and directing.

I don’t really know where all of this will take me yet. But that’s kind of the exciting part. There’s always another sidequest waiting around the corner.
