Max Unterharnscheidt is a photographer with over 20 years of experience, specializing in expeditions, wildlife, and weddings.
Based in the Swiss Alps, he combines his passion for photography, adventure, and mountaineering – from the peaks of the Alps to the Himalayas – to tell compelling visual stories.
Expeditions to Antarctica are among his favorites, capturing the raw beauty of one of the most remote places on Earth.
As a photo instructor and tour leader, he loves sharing his knowledge and helping others see the world through a new lens.
Photography has also given him the opportunity to give back.
Through storytelling, he launched a project in Nepal to support remote schools and provide children with better access to education.
What fascinates him most is bringing the stories of remote places to life – whether through documenting wildlife, capturing the traditions of indigenous communities, or using his work to make a difference.
His goal is to create powerful images that evoke emotions and raise awareness of the beauty and fragility of our planet.
