Person properties

General info :
Katja Rahlwes (born 1967, Frankfurt, Germany) is a German fashion photographer, based in Paris.
Katja Rahlwes left Germany at the age of 16 for London and then moved to Paris in 1988 to study fashion design at Studio Berçot, Paris.

In 1995-2004, Rahlwes set out for a career as a freelance fashion stylist. She met Olivier Zahm and Elein Fleiss, co-founders and publishers of Purple Prose, later called Purple fashion, in 1996. Rahlwes has been collaborating with Purple ever since and took part of a new movement of visual language in the publication world. In 1998-2001, Rahlwes became chief-fashion editor and photo-editor at BIBA, a major market fashion magazine in Paris.

Throughout those years she would live a parallel life as a professional stylist and part-time photographer. She said it was, “like having a husband and a lover.” In 2003, she eventually chose photography over her styling career.

Her work can be seen in the magazines Vogue Paris, Vogue Nippon, Vogue US, Self Service, Interview, Purple fashion, i-D, Pin Up, BUTT Magazine, New York (magazine).
She has produced photographs for brands such as Gucci, Céline, Miu Miu, Chloé, A.P.C., Maison Martin Margiela, Levi's and others.
