Ben Ming Jie Schumann's self-report

Photography has a long history in my family. As early as my great-grandfather's time, I started a photography company in solingen. Then my grandfather took over the business, and then my father thought I would take the road of my ancestors, but I chose another road.

At the beginning of 200 1, I attended a practical course called "family and friends" in the business department of a customer service company. From then on, I realized that I wanted to do something creative, but I wasn't sure what it was. In 200 1 year, he began to engage in charity for the disabled.

Later, I found that what I wanted was a creative and interpersonal job. From that moment on, I realized that my dream career was so clear, and people photography had two aspects of my dream.

In June 2002, I began to receive personal portrait training in my father's studio. In February 2003, my father and I opened another studio in solingen. Unexpectedly, my father died suddenly in June 2002, so I had to give up my studio.

At that moment, I felt helpless and lonely. A few months later, I continued to study in Cologne. I decided to come to China to experience foreign culture, gain more knowledge, and exchange teaching and skills with photographers in China.

I feel that things are on the normal path of professional children's photography as I wish.
