About me

Hey, my name is Tobias Büttel. I am a 30 years old freelance photographer and writer based in Germany. Nature is my passion. 

Growing up in a small town in the middle of Germany, I always spent a lot of my time outside. After moving to Munich for my studies, the Alps became my main playground. From vast landscapes to small details, there is so much to discover in our world.

My main focus is on nature, conservation and outdoor photography. I want to capture unique moments and inspire people. My goal is to show the beauty of nature and thereby motivate people to help to protect it.

Achievements:

Some of my publications and cooperations: NaturFoto, Sidetracked, DigitalPhoto, Protect Alpine Nature, Protect our Winters, Glacier Watch, Bürgerinitiative Feldring, …
