Frederike Wetzels is a Berlin & Cologne-based photographer, working all over the world. Following graduation in 2011, she began her career shooting and photo-editing for music, pop culture and street-wear magazines.

Frederikes’ recent visual obsession is mixing translucidity, bending and shapeshifting abilities. She approaches the world with a compelling and revolutionary visual enthusiasm, combining visionary energies, which are multilayered and diversified.

Her agility defends a unique aesthetic position with a true and truthful signature style. She deploys the camera as a brilliant facilitator and expands the view of the observer with distinctive colours. Frederike’s collaborative workstyle is smart, lissom and transcends the here and now. Her feminist signature sci-pop photography focuses on fashion, music, advertising and portrait. The chromatic character of her work juxtaposes the loud with the subtle and always demands attention.

She highly influenced the visual style of the music magazine Intro, and worked as a picture editor for many other magazines mainly focusing on music and fashion. Frederike approaches the world with her photographic art as holistic and sustainable, adding a specific spice to it: her idealistic genius, complex happiness and joy. She exhibits her photographic work, lectures, holds workshops and teaches photography/photo editing at the University of Applied Sciences, Dortmund (since 2017).
