Captivation Studios

As an experienced business photography studio in Prenzlauer Berg, Captivation Studios specialises in application photos and professional business portraits. We understand that a strong profile picture can make a crucial first impression. That’s why we focus on clean visual language, natural expression and personal preparation so your image communicates both competence and personality. Our approach is pragmatic and empathetic. Before your session we discuss the role, industry and the impression you want to create—formal, creative or approachable. In our studio we foster a relaxed environment so you feel at ease quickly. We provide clear direction on posture, gaze and expression to produce authentic results without stiff posing. If needed, we also shoot on location at your workplace for consistent staff images or a preferred background. What sets Captivation apart is a blend of long-standing business photography experience and a commitment to authenticity: minimal, tasteful retouching that preserves skin tones and detail while emphasising your best features. Many clients appreciate that we deliver powerful results in concise sessions—perfect for job applications, LinkedIn, Xing and corporate communications. Our process: 1) Brief consultation to define objectives. 2) Focused photoshoot in studio or on-site. 3) Private image selection where you choose your favourites. 4) Final retouching and delivery in web and print formats, optimised for application documents and profile platforms. Captivation Studios helps you present your professional identity with clarity. Located in Prenzlauer Berg, our team offers personal guidance, technical expertise and attention to detail—so your application photo says exactly what you want: competent, likeable and distinctive.
