Avenger Photographers is delighted to welcome a new addition to the team. MARGO : “The name means something – Margaretha Olschewski. Known throughout the creative scene, she traveled the world already when she was a model. This was followed by various photography jobs, then her move to Paris, the center of her life for ten years and the base from which she worked for international brands (Aqua Panna, Audi, Armani. 3 Suisses, TUI, Thierry Mugler, Marc o’Polo, and many more).
