Introducing myself: Lalalopo Berlin Photography

Hi, I’m Stef – a creative producer, artist manager, and photographer working at the intersection of music, visual storytelling, and cultural movements.
Born in the poetic city of Heidelberg and raised amid the vibrant colors and rhythms of Rabat, Morocco, my journey has always been guided by a love for cross-cultural expression and the power of creative transformation.
Since planting roots in Berlin in 2011, I’ve dedicated my work to shaping artistic narratives that transcend borders. Whether it’s through managing genre-defying bands, capturing raw moments with a camera, or co-creating multimedia productions, I’m fueled by the connective energy of art.

Artist Management: Building Stories Through Sound

At the heart of my work is a deep commitment to artists who embody authenticity, vision, and emotional depth. I currently manage three incredible bands:

📍 The Trouble Notes – An international progressive folk-fusion band whose cinematic live shows fuse world folk, rock, and storytelling. From sold-out tours to festival highlights like Glastonbury and Castlefest, I guide their creative direction, touring, and production strategies.

📍 Tribubu – A joyous Afro-Rumba folk quartet known for their infectious rhythms, street spirit, and community-driven performances. With roots in Spain, Côte d’Ivoire, and the UK, they bring audiences together across genres and generations.

📍 Just Like Clay – A fresh indie folk-pop project born from cross-continental collaboration and bound by melody, poetry, and performance. Their style is intimate, yet anthemic—an exploration of emotion wrapped in harmony.

My work with these bands goes far beyond logistics—it's about amplifying identity, nurturing creative evolution, and curating experiences that move people.

Photography: Framing the Emotional Architecture of Life

When not on the road or deep in production plans, you’ll often find me behind the lens. My photography explores the spaces between people and place, blending documentary with fine art to tell stories of belonging, transformation, and stillness in motion.

From urban portraits to festival landscapes and quiet in-between moments, my work is always about capturing what makes us human. I see photography not just as a visual practice, but as an act of connection.

A Life Between Worlds

Having lived between Morocco, Germany, and now working across Europe, I carry a deep respect for how art shapes identity—and how identity, in turn, shapes the art we create.

My creative life is built on collaboration, curiosity, and a belief that music and imagery can transcend language and borders. I’m constantly inspired by movement—whether that’s in culture, cities, or internal transformation.

Let’s Create Together

I love working with artists, filmmakers, festivals, and visionaries who believe in the power of story-driven art. If you're working on a project that bridges disciplines, tells bold stories, or needs a steady hand and heart in creative production—let’s connect.
