Michael Pfaff

Based in the Bamberg area, I have been photographing people for many years and specialise in creating application photos and business portraits that are authentic, professional and purpose‑driven. With a passion for photography that began over 25 years ago, I focus on producing images that convey both competence and personality. My process starts with a consultation to determine the desired look—professional, modern, classic or approachable. Whether in the studio or on location, I work calmly and purposefully to ensure you feel comfortable and appear natural. For application photos, details matter: posture, gaze, lighting and careful retouching to present you at your best on resumes and online profiles like LinkedIn or Xing. Why choose me: I combine extensive experience in people and business photography with an unobtrusive working style. I take time to prepare, offer practical advice on styling and expression, and ensure the final images communicate your professional strengths. Many sessions take place in real‑life settings or at the workplace to produce credible employee portraits and portfolio images. Workflow: Contact me with a brief description of your needs; we clarify formats and intended use (application, LinkedIn/Xing, company profile) and schedule the session. During the shoot I guide you through poses and facial expressions; afterwards you receive a selection of professionally edited images. I can provide multiple formats and files tailored for web and print. I serve Bamberg and the surrounding district and can travel across Germany on request to create business and application photos. If you want honest, effective application photos that boost your confidence and your prospects while remaining natural, I look forward to hearing from you. Together we will create an image that presents you with clarity and presence.
