What is your favorite thing about the work that you do?

What adore the freedom to shape all aspects of our brand in alignment with our personality and in flow with our personal growth. Also how often we are reminded to peel back what is not true to us and to be increasingly bold and unapologetic about our own, specific vision. On a creative level as well as on the business side.

Why did you found the LEGACY Workshop?

We were amazed about the energy and potential we saw LEGACY following unique values and aesthetics. We knew about the plethora of educational offerings, but our vision has always been very particular.

So we started to gather everything we’d look for ourselves, everything we’d want to get out of the experience. A safe space to create, to expand the mind, to create uniquely beautiful portfolio work – all while being totally immersed and undistracted. Our vision was for an introvert-friendly setting, a mystical place – a castle – and having catering included, so one can feel invigorated and taken care of. Even though we named this a workshop initially, it brings the soulful energy and experience to feel like a retreat.

What is the most important lesson you've learned on your photography journey?

This is where we might differ a bit. For Ronja being a photographer is more about being an attentive human than it is about being an „artist“. It is more about making people feel seen and relaxed then it is about putting them in the best poses. It’s about looking at people from a loving and open heart and showing them what you see in them - so they can see it, too.

For Victor, the objective is to figure out your uniqueness. Not in a sense of vanity, but more so the observation that everyone gains from understanding their own drive, passion, taste and qualities of character. These can and will eventually carry over into photography.

What would you tell your younger selves about where you are now?

We followed what we truly felt was our personal & unique aesthetic vision – unbothered by industry standards – and stepping back from the hard-hustle mentality that certainly works for many, but not for us. The revelation became clear: Contemplation and reflection as a powerful means to push forward – as a counterpoise to constant physical execution.

If every person at Legacy Workshop could leave with ONE THING, what would you want that to be?

If everyone leaves a bit more in love with their unique path and more courage to be themselves in everything they do, we are absolutely thrilled.
