As a business photographer in Berlin I create application photos and LinkedIn/Xing profile pictures: clear, natural headshots in studio or on location — professional and easy.
I’m Bastian Bochinski — an advertising and business photographer based in Berlin. Application photos are more than portraits: they’re your first professional statement to employers, HR teams and networks like LinkedIn or Xing. From my commercial work with brands and agencies I know how crucial an image is that not only looks good but also communicates the right message. My approach is simple and personal. In a short pre‑shoot consultation we define the application context, industry and the impression you want to convey. From that we create a concept — whether a clean studio headshot at Studio Batterie or an authentic business portrait on location. I focus on natural expressions, clear lighting and a reduced visual style that works equally well online and in printed materials. Why choose me? With experience in advertising and business photography, I combine technical expertise with a sense for expression. Projects for clients such as Jägermeister or Kapten & Son have taught me how important detail, composition and careful retouching are — all of which I bring to your application photos. At the same time I avoid stiff, posed portraits: through a calm, relaxed atmosphere and concise guidance I help even camera‑shy clients achieve authentic results. The shoot workflow: brief briefing, styling tips, targeted shooting with a few looks, and a quick selection of favorites. Retouching is subtle — blemishes refined, expression and sharpness preserved. On request I deliver optimized versions for web (LinkedIn/Xing) and print so your application materials look consistent everywhere. If you want a precise, professional application photo that shows your personality and competence, get in touch. I’ll apply my business and commercial photography experience to create images that open doors.
