Michael Schauer
A course by Michael Schauer
Michael Schauer is a nature and landscape photographer from Munich, Germany. After studying sociology and philosophy, he discovered that photography was his preferred outlet for creative expression. His images are the result of a meditative approach where he allows external influences to blend with his inner world. For the past several years, he's been traveling, primarily through Scandinavia and Iceland, in search of peaceful forests and frozen landscapes for his photos.
Through practice and experience, he gradually honed his skills and developed a unique personal style, which has caught the eye of clients like Adobe, Nikon, Bentley, and a host of travel and tourism organizations. His work was displayed in Munich in 2017 and again in 2019, the same year he published a practical guide on drone photography titled Fotografieren mit Drohnen.
