Raik Schache<\/strong> (born 1998 in Jena) is a freelance photographer and has been studying \u2018Visual Journalism & Documentary Photography\u2019 at Hochschule Hannover since 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his documentary projects he deals, in the broadest sense, with subcultural movements and often finds himself working closely with marginalised groups and individuals. Alongside several completed projects on homelessness, his work is currently defined by collaborations with people and movements in eastern Germany.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Besides his passion for documentary photography, Raik Schache also works as a PR and advertising photographer for a wide range of agencies and companies across Germany, focusing on editorial and portrait photography.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
