Portrait & People Photography
People photography here means two things: corporate portraits, teams and working environments — alongside portrait sets for artists, musicians and private occasions.
Photographed in the studio or on location, in a visual language that fits the role and the channel it is made for.
Portrait photography thrives within a relaxed, inspiring atmosphere where you feel completely at ease.
Lighting, ambiance, and room climate are meticulously tailored.
Direct and open communication creates lasting trust.
When we communicate effortlessly, you feel relaxed, confident, and we ensure an enjoyable, dynamic photo session.
We start with a relaxed briefing over fresh coffee or water, allowing you to settle in comfortably.
We start shooting only when you feel confident, focused, and ready.
Photography & Its Beauty
Beauty photography is a specialized discipline focused on intimate, close-up portraits that accentuate distinctive aesthetic features for editorial, commercial, or personal branding.
Beauty portraits highlight artistic expression as well as luxury products like makeup, skincare, and fine jewelry.
Letting the idea run
One-off portrait concepts, staged with intent, with lighting that surprises and elements that come out of imagination rather than a catalog.
Professional promotional images
If you act, sing, play, present or dance, a portrait with presence is doing real work for you — at castings, in your press material and on your own site.
Portraits composed out of several pictures
A composite brings separate elements together into one new, unreal picture. Real photographs are extended with digital effects, fire or special textures, as far as the idea goes.

The family moments worth keeping
Planning a family shoot and finding a date for it is work, no question — but the shoot itself is full of love, laughter and warmth. Your family photos will not come out boring. What I care about is keeping the atmosphere light and easy, so that what shows up in the pictures is the honest laughing, the lovely chaos and the affection a family actually has. I bring both my own family experience and my professional one to make sure that time is held onto in its happiest form.
What a family shoot includes
Making memories that stay
When a new life begins and the thing you wished for most starts growing hands and feet, wonder is the right word for it. Pregnancy is a chapter you do not forget, and photographing it is the first page of the family album. These pictures last, and they keep giving something back long after the ninth month.
Love, put into pictures
Two people put years of time and care into being together, and most of what makes that good is hard to photograph. A couple shoot is the occasion to catch the closeness itself, rather than another picture of two people standing next to each other.

Projects in Portrait Photography
Portraits are far more than a simple snapshot of the present.
For me, they preserve authentic emotions, character, and individual essence.
Throughout my career, I have come to appreciate the deep synergy between model and photographer.
Together, we cultivate an environment where striking, emotive, and timeless imagery emerges naturally.
Standing in front of a camera is unfamiliar for most people, and the first frame shows it.
On a portrait, creativity is less a question of technique than of when someone stops feeling watched.
From that point on the pictures very nearly make themselves.
Born in February 1990 in the USA, at home in Frankfurt am Main.
Photography and film have been my subject since I was fourteen, professionally since 2014.
Business portraits, beauty, character and outdoor portraits are made in the studio or on location, depending on where the subject is.
Before your shoot
- It starts with an appointment I deliberately keep long: the pictures are worked out together rather than run off a list. You are prepared once you roughly know what kind of images you want — the examples in my gallery help, and so do Google and Pinterest. Around those ideas you put together a choice of clothes. Both reach me before the date: the picture ideas and, if it can be arranged, a look at the garments and accessories. During the session we build several sets from them, so that what you end up with is not one idea but a few. Afterwards the best frames go online for you to see, you take your time choosing, and you pass the selection back to me.
- A model, too, looks different in daily life than in a finished frame. A good portrait is the interplay of expression, pose, styling, makeup, light and editing — six things, of which you bring two: the expression and the makeup. Pose, styling, light and everything that happens afterwards on the screen are mine. Which is why asking whether somebody is photogenic is the wrong question to bring to a session.
- A companion is welcome if it makes you more comfortable. For many people that is the difference between a stiff start and a relaxed one, and the first minutes are exactly where it matters. Only one thing counts once the camera is running: the atmosphere should stay relaxed and concentrated — both at once.
- Too little time shows in the pictures. So I plan in a way that leaves nobody watching the clock: you should be able to open up during the session, and that needs air between the sets. Anyone standing in front of a camera for the first time is best off setting aside one to two hours — for the pictures themselves and for the part before them, in which the unfamiliar wears off.
- Arriving rested is half the preparation. Bring several outfits if you like, along with accessories that belong to you — choosing on the spot is easier than committing beforehand. Picture ideas, mood and styling we agree on in advance, so that nothing fundamental is left to settle on the day.
- The finished pictures are yours to use: social media, your own website, your own portfolio — none of that needs asking me first. What is excluded is resale, to stock agencies for instance.

Planning something like this?
Tell me what the pictures are for and how many people will stand in front of the camera. Studio or on location we agree beforehand; scope and price are fixed before anything is photographed. Open questions we settle by phone or email. The inquiry costs nothing and commits you to nothing.
A session starts at 250 euro plus VAT. What lies above that is decided by the scope. How pricing works
