About.
Photography, Film & Creative Direction.
Since 2009.
Beyond photography and film
I studied Advertising and Market Communication at Stuttgart Media University (HdM). Living in India and Indonesia shaped the way I see people, cultures and the world around me. Today, I'm based between Bregenz, Austria, and Stuttgart, Germany. Alongside my work in photography, film and creative direction, I share several creative ventures with my wife, Lisa Jöchler, under Lisa & Sven Media GbR.
Together, we explore different sides of visual storytelling: from international film and photography projects, advertising imagery and high-class weddings to AI-driven creative projects and mentoring fellow photographers and filmmakers.
Different disciplines, connected by a shared curiosity for people, the spaces they inhabit and the connections between us. These connections find expression through photography, moving images and new technologies.
