Services

My services: photography and film for companies and hotels

Photography and film in one agreed visual language. Sound, editing and grading are part of the production rather than bought in.

Every service, in one place

Ordered by field: what I photograph, what I film and what follows on from it. Each page shows work from its own field.

Photography

I photograph for companies, hotels, restaurants and private clients: events, portraits, food, products, interiors and architecture. The work happens in the studio or on location, depending on where the subject is. What you get is not a collection of single frames but a set that holds together — the look is agreed before the shoot and applies to every picture in it.

People & moments

  • People & portrait

    Business portraits, beauty, character and outdoor portraits, in the studio and on location.

  • Fine art portrait

    Portrait sessions with a concept, a look of your own and light as the tool, as a signed fine art print if you like.

  • Event photography

    Corporate events, concerts, trade fairs and galas — photographed in Frankfurt and across the Rhine-Main region.

  • Wedding photography & film

    Quiet, documentary coverage of your day around Frankfurt — in stills and in film.

  • Landscape & aerial

    Nature, panoramas and drone imagery from across Europe and beyond.

Spaces & food

Film & sound

Trailers, image films, commercials and reportage, from the idea to the edit. A film says in thirty seconds what a page of text cannot. Here it comes from the same hand as the photographs and carries the same visual language — including when both are made on the same day. Sound, sound design and editing are part of it and are not bought in.

  • Sound design & original music

    The soundtrack to a brand film, hotel film, wedding film or event trailer — from me, built on the edit, rights included.

Design, web & coaching

What follows on from stills and film: the identity the pictures sit in, and the shop or website they run on — designed and illustrated by one person. And for anyone who takes photographs themselves, coaching.

  • Graphic design & branding

    Logos, corporate identities, menus, packaging and posters — designed, photographed and filmed by one person.

  • Web design & online shops

    Websites with a wow effect like Nexentrium’s scroll film, and online shops of your own on Shopify — designed, built and photographed by one person.

  • Marketing & brand building

    Google Ads, ads on Instagram and Facebook, Instagram concepts and SEO, with photos and films for every channel, all made by me.

  • Photography coaching

    Technique, composition and editing, matched to your level and your goals.

When a project needs more than one discipline

Stills and film are rarely needed apart: at an event both are made on the same evening, and the trailer should look like the photographs lying next to it. Because it all comes by one person, nothing is bought in and nothing has to be matched up afterwards — it is made together from the start. What you need is usually not settled at the outset, which is why a project begins with a conversation rather than with a choice from a list.

Good to know

The questions that come before an inquiry — what something costs, how an offer comes about, when I can be reached, and what applies when a job is outside the Rhine-Main region. Each answer has its own page:

Software and platforms

Under the Nexentrium brand, the same company builds software products of its own: platforms for recruiting, agency operations and image production. The platforms are products of their own; websites like Nexentrium’s, with a scroll film and in two languages, I also build for clients.

Portrait of Patrick Schmetzer
Photography means art. It is like a painting whose colors, contours, patterns or faces invite us to look deeper. We make a “picture” of it, whether consciously or unconsciously.
