Charlotte Starup Photography

As a Master and internationally awarded portrait photographer, I specialise in business portraits and application photos that present you confidently and authentically. In my Starnberg studio I design each session as a service-led experience—from consultation to final image selection. My goal is not just a picture, but an image that clearly communicates your professional identity—whether for job applications, LinkedIn, Xing or corporate profiles. Why clients choose me: I work with a magazine-inspired aesthetic and a keen eye for pose, light and expression. Many people feel uneasy in front of the camera—that’s why I developed a calm, guided process that builds confidence. I plan poses and image concepts in advance, guide you step by step during the shoot and provide clear, encouraging direction to capture genuine, professional expressions. My process: Every business session starts with a consultation where we define the objective, preferred image language and usage (applications, social media, company website). You receive preparation tips for clothing and styling; professional hair & make‑up is available on request. In the studio I use lighting and backgrounds purposefully to create timeless yet modern portraits. After the shoot I make a preselection, perform careful retouching on chosen images and we select together the photos that best represent your professionalism. What you receive: contemporary application photos and business headshots optimised for LinkedIn/Xing, natural retouching and variations for multiple uses. I can also prepare a Social Media Kit or consistent employee photo formats for corporate branding. My mission is simple: to photograph people so they see themselves as confident and presentable. If you need a career‑advancing image that truly represents you, I’d be happy to consult and create application photos with the care and aesthetic your personal brand deserves.
