Eggtastic
René first translates his ideas into three-dimensional sculptures, which serve as the foundation for his artistic exploration. Through repetition and the capture of fleeting movements—like smoke or flowing liquids—he reveals the nearly imperceptible moments that often escape the human eye. These transient instants are suspended in time, immortalized through his photography.
The carefully considered color palettes of his images further enhance the clarity of his compositions, imbuing each work with a unique atmosphere that draws the viewer into its subtle yet profound narrative.
Throughout my career, I’ve had the pleasure of working with renowned brands such as BMW, Mercedes, Google, and many others. One of my proudest projects is the creation of a spectacular waterfall installation that has been displayed on 32 HD monitors in the staircase of the AIDA Mar cruise ship since 2012. Standing at 18 meters high, this visual feature captivates thousands of travelers every day.
In addition to my work in post-production, I have also released three food photography books, all available to the public. My goal in these projects is to create images that make viewers feel instantly hungry. I enjoy the diverse challenges that food photography presents and the opportunity to capture a variety of styles.
Artistically, I am deeply influenced by the great masters of landscape photography like Ansel Adams and the pioneers of fine art black-and-white photography. For many years, I’ve also been dedicated to landscape and architectural photography, always striving to find symmetry and serenity in my images. Art in all its forms captivates me, and I value the friendships I’ve cultivated with artists from different fields, including photography and ceramics.
Looking to the future, I plan to share my passion for fine art photography through an online store, offering my work to a wider audience. My goal is to create images that captivate viewers with their clarity and structure.

about the photographer
I am an experienced Freelance Postproduction Artist, initially inspired by the classic Star Wars films to pursue a career in visual effects and image editing. My fascination with the magic of cinema led me to post-production, where I specialize in retouching, set extensions, and matte painting. I particularly enjoy the challenge of finalizing videos, enhancing existing material to achieve the best possible result.Throughout my career, I’ve had the pleasure of working with renowned brands such as BMW, Mercedes, Google, and many others.
