I am Marc Fippel, photographer, born in 1973 in Nairobi, Kenya. I spent my childhood between Kenya, South Africa, and Germany. I speak German, English, French, and a few words of Kiswahili. The world is my home. Come with me on a journey. My childhood shaped me, and I had the chance to meet many different people and cultures. The numerous moves taught me to be flexible and spontaneous in responding to new situations and events.

My mother, Jacqueline Fippel, gave me the necessary sensitivity and fine intuition for what really matters in life. My father, Bernd Fippel, taught me the basics of photography and showed me what it means to work independently with passion and perseverance. Today I live with my wife Heike and my son Emilias in Zwingenberg on the Hessian Bergstraße. My wife Heike supports me daily in our business.

What defines me? I am open-minded, love encounters with people, and enjoy discovering what moves them deep inside. Their stories inspire me. As a photographer, I am not just an observer but a door opener: I help people discover and reveal their true selves – in images that connect and touch. In doing so, I am a networker in the best sense: I enjoy bringing people together, sparking new impulses, and sharing creative ideas.

I work with a clear sense of the moment. My shoots are like life itself – in flow. We start with an idea, leaving room for spontaneity. In the end, a lively, coherent photo series emerges – your personal story.
