Hello,


My name is Erik Stolze.  A German born photographer currently residing in Chicago, IL.  My travels have taken me to North America, South America, Central America, Europe, and Northern Africa.  In all of my travels I have taken photographs on my excursions.  My hope is to document the cultures I see and landscape in all of its lush beauty with my camera.

I prefer to travel with a minimum of photographic equipment in my bag (usually one 35mm SLR Body and very few zoom lenses). Therefore I rely on the stillness of my hand rather than a tripod.

Over the years, I developed a growing interest in black & white photography and the traditional "wet-process" developing techniques.   As a founding member of Atelier Kunststück, an artists' studio project in Berlin,  I built a proper darkroom for myself and the other artists to use.  We continue to exhibit our work and the work of other artists we like in the Atelier Kunststück Gallery.

This website has samples of my photography.  Have a look at them and visit my contact page if you would like to email me.


Thank you,
Erik Stolze
