My new life as a SWE Photographer

Some of you may remember that I did a report about the SWE Show "Turbulence 2014" in May. Well, a lot of things have changed and happened since then!

In July, at NEW's "Dealine II", we met the CEO of Swiss Wrestling Entertainment, started to talk, and one thing lead to the other.

Since then, I...

  • ... have created the (German) website for the wrestling company
  • ... met and got to know the man behind "SigMasta Rappo" - google him and you'll know why you all should bow down to this man!
  • ... attended my first wrestling event as part of the crew/team/office
  • ... was doomed to do the ice bucket challenge because I am part of the SWE team now

What can I say, it's great! The feeling of having your arms propped up on the mat while being so damn close with your camera, feeling every vibration and fall of the talents in the ring... Amazing! When you see the wrestlers prepare for their matches "backstage", or are able to pay very close attention to their verbal and non-verbal in-ring communication - that's when you feel you are part of something. You aren't just a watcher, a spectator, no. You are a PART of it!

Can I just express how freaking amazing this is? Thank you!
