Hey, I am Simon Gerlinger and I tell intimate stories through photography and mixed media.

Mainly I see myself in the field of Portrait and Documentary Photography.

In my photographic essays, I deal with the search for my own identity, the topic of growing up and home, love, and the social interaction of society. Through different visual approaches,
I challenge myself to find the right tone for each story.

Currently, I am based in Brussels and Cologne/Aachen, where I am available for assignments of any kind. You are interested in working with me? Feel free to contact me!
