Situations, when love begins, the moments, when
the butterflies in one's stomach become sensible,
records Anja Müller in her new, firstly
coloured photobook. Abandon, relaxation, closeness
and intimacy distinguish a lot of the pictures, but
the book also contains energetic portraits. Despite
of all variety the allurement of the sudden
lightning" is catched in every photograph.
Affectionate and sensual, still and romantic,
exciting and stirring are the people of this
portraits and by observing these photographs the
wellknown feelings of the first seconds, the
butterflies, are rising inside.

reviews:
What attracts the attention of Anja
Müllers photopgraphs is the lack of any
routine. She has taken the picture newly again and
again out of the particular situation, or better,
out of the feeling she had in the same moment.
There is neither coolness nor greed in her eyes but
tenderness. Smooth outlines, soft play of light and
shadow&endash; in the second when she presses the
shutter release she holds on time. And an agravic
space is opened where people can be by themselves,
closely connected with everything, that
exists
Anja Müller captures something
you can't take away from them. And that assures
what we quite believe her: The life we are imaging
could be real." (Neues Deutschland)
The Berlin artist Anja Müller focuses on
erotic photography beyond conventional portrayal.
Her pictures distinguish a rarely findable intimacy
and presence." (Die Märkische)
