Berry Behrendt worked until 2000 for numerous established lifestyle magazines such as Elle, Brigitte, Maxi, Max and others. During this time he also developed his passion for musician portraits.
His work quickly attracts attention in the U.S. and he gets the chance to collaborate with some of the most successful musical personalities of the time. Names like Jay Z, Missy Elliot, Kanye West, Basta Rhymes and Moby are just a few of them.
The interest of the US music industry in his work and a great lovestory made him move to New York in 2000. In addition to his usual work as a fashion photographer, he now increasingly pursues his artistic work.
Since 2015 he lives and works in his hometown Hamburg again.
