The path of life leads author Maria Romahn-Schmidt via Wagenhoff in the South Heath to Wermelskirchen in the Bergisches Land. In 1999, the nature lover returned to Sauerland. This time to Schmallenberg, where she has since lived and worked with her husband in a small remnant farm. The focus of her life has always been animals, nature and her own garden. For several years now, photography and her blog “Blickwinkel” have also played an important role in the author’s life.

Maria Romahn-Schmidt came to photography rather by chance. Friends gave her photography equipment as a gift. Since then Maria Romahn-Schmidt inspires more than ten thousand followers with her loving authentic collages. Always in focus: the small beauties of their everyday life in nature and garden.

And if it is the photos that give pleasure at first glance, then shortly afterwards it is the subtle thoughts and the little ideas for the day that her readers love so much about Maria Romahn-Schmidt.
