WELCOME !
My name is Dr. Nicholas Roemmelt and I am a German pro landscape and adventurescape photographer (GDT, VTNOe) living in the heart of the Alps (Tyrol / Austria) together with my wife and our two dogs.
Though my occupation is being a dentist in our own private dental office during the week, I have been additionally working as a pro landscape photographer for some years now. That´s the reason why I am swapping "offices" as often as possible.
The mountains of the Alps (and of the world) have become my second "office" as I am trying to capture those very fleeting moments when you are most exposed to nature.
"Being outdoors means being possible to become a part of nature, where nothing else matters than the present moment. I think, the tremendous beauty of nature is the most precious gift we should preserve for future generations. „Taking pictures“ is my way of bringing home some of my experiences as well as being possible to show people something of that fragile magic that is worth being preserved."
Since 2003 I am into adventure and landscape photography during night:
My photographic work especially focuses on starlit landscapes with the Milky Way or the dancing Aurora above. To emphasize the dimensions and to put the landscape in a scale you will often find a small "human element"in my pictures. This is my way of telling the "story", to let you "see" what we were seeing and let you "feel" what we were feeling on location, in order to let you become a part of the adventure. In my opinion at no any other time of the day you can be more exposed to nature than during the dead of the night.
My pictures have been internationally awarded and published in many books, magazines and calendars and I am guiding workshops and photo adventures.
My first coffee-table book with my best starscapes of the ALPS (STERNBILDER- Die Alpen bei Nacht) was published in 2017at the FREDERKING & THALER VERLAG. Since Jan 2018 there is an extended 2nd edition available. You can order this book (only in German) here on my homepage or buy it at local bookstores in Germany or Austria
If you are interested in buying a license for a picture or a video, please don´t hesitate to CONTACT me!
All pictures are available as FINEARTPRINTS & more, as well.

THE CREW
Christina @ work ...
CHRISTINA my wife, climbing partner, best friend, "personal" photo model. She is responsible for the logistics of our adventures and journeys although she is working as a dentist for children and is senior partner at our dental office. She is not only motivator and knows how to tackle any kind of problem, she is my hardest critic, too. When she is not occupied in climbing an exposed rock to play the model for me or to "tame" our two dogs on our hikes (it´s so boring for an excited little dog to sit on one place when there are compelling scents in the air) she is a photographer, too, running her own Blog: 8Paws4Feet - hiking and travelling with dogs.
Our two faithful companions, well trained hikers and "mountaineers". They can find nearly everything with their noses (much more than they should). They´ve already climbed the Beseggen and Stetind (to Halls Fortop) in Norway, are jumping over crevasses on the Glaciers of the Alps and sleep with us in our tent while a blizzard is raging outside, just beeing happy to come with us anywhere we go. And yes, they are always in for a treat!
