Ellen Schmauss creates professional application photos and business portraits in a relaxed atmosphere. Authentic LinkedIn and Xing images that show personality and competence.
As an experienced portrait and business photographer, Ellen Schmauss focuses on creating application photos that not only look great but honestly reflect your personality and professionalism. Photography has been part of Ellen’s life since childhood, and from that deep connection she developed a working style that always puts people first. Her particular strength is capturing authentic presence — exactly what hiring managers look for in application materials and business profiles. With long-standing experience in musician portraits, press photography and event coverage, Ellen has developed a keen sense for presence, expression and the decisive moment. She brings this sensitivity to application and business shoots: instead of stiff poses, she creates natural, confident images that convey both professional competence and individuality. Clients appreciate her calm, uncomplicated manner, which quickly eases nerves. The process is personal and service-oriented: a short pre-session conversation clarifies goals, industry and intended effect. Whether studio shoots in Emmendingen or on-location business portraits — Ellen creates a comfortable atmosphere where you can be yourself. During the session she gently guides posture and expression, experiments with lighting and angles, and helps ensure the images feel authentic. After the shoot Ellen carefully retouches each image with an emphasis on natural appearance and presence. The final photos are ideal for application documents, LinkedIn and Xing profiles, and company presentations. If you want a professional, genuine and impactful application photo, you will benefit from Ellen’s technical expertise, artistic eye and her commitment to making people visible. Application photos and business portraits by Ellen Schmauss are perfect for anyone who wants to make a strong first impression — whether for hiring decision-makers or for a professional online presence.
