As photo editor of the mass circulation (around one million) German news-led weekly Stern since 1996 Volker Lensch has been instrumental in shaping the pictorial coverage of the publication for over a decade. He came through the ranks at Stern after joining in the magazine back in 1992, becoming deputy photo editor in 1994, and then taking over as picture editor 12 years ago. 

Lensch advises: If you go to see a photo editor  whether it be for Stern, Spiegel or Paris Match  you should be well prepared. You should know what youre talking about, you should know very much about the magazine, what they stand for and what kind of stories they publish  thats very important.
