REEF
ROADS.
Inspired by the ocean.
Driven by curiosity.
Our world in photographs, travel stories
and nature illustrations.
This is Reef Roads
Diving brought us together.
Bali sparked the idea.
We’re Jasmin and André. We met through diving. On our first trip to Bali together, the idea for Reef Roads took shape: a home for our discoveries, our photographs and the stories behind them.

02 / Underwater macro photography
A whole world.
In the smallest details.
For André, a tiny patch of sand can hold enough for an entire dive. A glance, a delicate texture, a brief moment in the light: his macro photography reveals what is easily overlooked.

Jasmin is drawn to mantas, sharks and sweeping reefs. On her paper, we meet these shapes again.

03 / Nature illustrated
From the sea
to the page.
Our encounters with mantas don’t end at the reef. On Jasmin’s paper, their shapes become fine pencil lines or dark washes of watercolour.
These works have a place of their own at Reef Roads. Brush marks, sketches and a glimpse of how they come to life.

Behind Reef Roads.
We’re from south-west Germany. Yet we often feel most at home when the world above grows quiet and blue surrounds us.
Through Reef Roads, we share what we see and experience along the way. For anyone who dives, is planning their next trip or simply dreams of the sea.
