About Ralph
Born and raised in Switzerland, Ralph has always been drawn to a life of authentic discovery. As a Renaissance Man, once chef/restaurateur, entrepreneur, artist, art dealer, builder, spiritual event producer and world traveler, his passion is uniting people, purpose and unusual places into new creations. To unveil the hidden essence of people and place - that we may apprehend our oneness.
"Having dedicated my life to seeking the essence of life itself, I finally came to understand that there is no need to look for the truth. All we need to do instead is to drop our illusions.
At the heart of my photography is a call to courageous vulnerability. This is about a choice and ability to confront and embrace our own shadows. When we do so, all becomes completely authentic in front of the camera and truth is seen.
Courageous vulnerability is a path I have walked myself. I was inflicted for many years with physical illness, intense pain, and personal challenges. It was through pain and facing my shadows that my mission emerged: to enable people to see and be themselves."
Mission
Transformation Through Photography
To transform our world by awakening consciousness and purpose.
"In a world divided, photography of courage and vulnerability imparts empathy and ignites shared value. Our vision is to unite, communicate and catalyze conscious transformation through photography and stories of authentic people and places for a sustainable future for all."
