Michael Eipel is a portrait and wedding photographer who also shoots professional application photos and business portraits. Focus: natural, expressive images for CV photos and LinkedIn/Xing.
Michael's main focus is portrait and wedding photography — skills he has refined over years of photographing people and moments. From this foundation he also offers application (Bewerbungsfotos) and business portraits as an occasional, complementary service for clients who need a professional image for job applications, LinkedIn or Xing. Why choose him: Michael brings a careful eye for detail and a preference for authentic portrayals. His portraits emphasise individuality and presence — qualities that translate directly into application photos that look confident yet natural, not over-styled. How he works: Sessions take place either in his small studio in Donauwörth – Nordheim or on location with mobile equipment. Michael favours natural light but uses studio lighting when appropriate. Before the shoot he discusses your goals (target industry, intended use, desired tone) and offers practical advice on wardrobe, posture and expression, so the session is efficient and focused. Process and delivery: After a short consultation comes the shoot, followed by selection and subtle retouching. Files can be optimized for web use, ensuring your LinkedIn or Xing profile image is crisp and correctly cropped. Retouching is professional but restrained to keep the image authentic. Added benefit: Michael's training as a media designer and experience in online marketing means he also understands how images perform online and can prepare them accordingly. Important to note: business and application photography are additional services — his primary expertise remains portrait and wedding photography, which is where his strongest experience comes from. If you need a CV photo or a new professional profile picture, contact Michael for a personal consultation. He will arrange a tailored, calm photoshoot — professional, discreet and with attention to what really matters.
