My website shines through passivity... You may have noticed that my website has hardly been updated since the pandemic ... Corona is leaving its mark, my retirement is doing its bit - but the worst thing for me was the death of my wife last April. There are still many unanswered questions about my future life, especially with regard to my future photographic activities. I am in the process of reorganising my everyday life and will see how things progress in this respect. I have decided to liquidate my small one-man business (GmbH), but will continue to take photographs on a reduced scale. As my provider will be giving up hosting in a few months' time, I am considering whether I will update my website in due course or, more likely, relaunch it in a more streamlined form. Thank you for your interest and understanding, Rémy Steinegger |

I was very lucky to have the opportunity to realise quite a number of books during the last 30 years. Most of them are still available and can be ordered in my bookshop, free of shipping costs in Switzerland! Have a look at my GALLERIES ! You'll find a mix of images shot all over the years ... I've met a lot of lovely people, I've covered interesting events, I've shot pictures to remember moments - and have travelled to fascinating places on this planet. Together with my amazing wife Vreni, with friends - and for clients. Thank you all for this - I'm happy to share my memories with you! |
