Christian Hanner Fotografie

As a photographer focused on portrait and business photography, my aim for application photos is straightforward: to create honest, compelling images that present you as credible and likeable from the first glance. In my spacious 70 m² studio in Freiburg I provide a relaxed environment where even camera-shy clients quickly feel at ease — good coffee, solid sound and a calm, professional approach. Why choose me: I combine technical precision with a human-centered approach. Great application photos are made in the moment of connection in front of the camera, not at the editing desk. Through clear guidance, posture and gesture coaching, and a calm working style, I help you find natural, confident expressions that suit applications, LinkedIn, Xing or other professional profiles. My process is personal and uncomplicated: we begin with a short conversation about your target role and the desired look. Together we pick outfits and the setting; if needed I can advise on make-up or support you with the image selection — either in the studio or via an online gallery. During the session I vary light and perspective so you receive a balanced selection of expressive options. I provide careful retouching that refines the image without making it look artificial. Final application photos are delivered quickly so you can use them in your application materials promptly. My philosophy is honest: no over-processing, no trendy filters — just clear, strong portraits that convey your personality. Whether you are an entry-level candidate or a senior executive, a tailored application photo significantly increases your chances to make a positive first impression. If you value authentic, professional and effective application imagery, I look forward to meeting you and creating your best application photo together.
