Linda Calmbach Photography

I’m Linda Calmbach, a photographer based in Karlsruhe with over ten years of experience. As a business photographer I specialize in application photos (Bewerbungsfotos), professional business portraits and strong LinkedIn/XING profile images that communicate your competence and personality authentically. My approach is straightforward and calm: I prefer daylight, pleasant environments and subtle retouching so your natural presence remains the focus. Feeling comfortable in front of the camera is essential to me. That’s why I offer a personal pre-shoot consultation—by phone or in person—to discuss style, wardrobe and the impression you want to make. This helps create portraits aligned with your industry, role and application goals. During the shoot I work with clear guidance and a relaxed atmosphere: I coach poses, facial expressions and posture to achieve authentic results. Whether you need a classic, professional look for applications, a modern friendly profile picture for social media, or consistent staff photos for your team, I pay close attention to eye contact, composition and small details so the images feel credible and polished. You’ll receive carefully edited images with restrained retouching that evens out skin tones without altering who you are. I can also advise on image selection and formatting for CVs, LinkedIn or Xing if desired. Why choose me: I combine long experience with a respectful, natural visual style. My goal is to highlight your strengths — without over‑processing. Rooted in Karlsruhe, I work flexibly and reliably to ensure you step into your next application or professional encounter with a confident image. I look forward to meeting you and creating an application photo that truly represents you.
