Christoph Niemann, Business Photographer in Hamburg, creates application photos and business portraits that convey competence and personality. Relaxed coaching and fast delivery.
Hello — I’m Christoph Niemann, a business photographer based in Hamburg. I specialise in application photos and business portraits that do more than look good: they communicate your professionalism and personality. A strong first impression is crucial for applications, and my aim is to create images that feel authentic, confident and approachable without forced poses or excessive retouching. My approach combines technical expertise with empathetic coaching. In a short pre-shoot consultation we define the desired look (classic, modern, creative), discuss outfits and choose the best setting — either in my Speicherstadt studio, on location, or at your workplace. During the shoot I give clear, calm direction to encourage natural expressions and body language. Many clients are surprised how quickly they relax in front of the camera when the atmosphere is right. I focus on authentic visual language: controlled lighting, tasteful editing, and expressions that build trust on CVs, LinkedIn and Xing profiles. Make-up and hairstyling services are available on request to ensure a polished overall result. Final images are delivered promptly in formats optimised for applications and professional profiles. Why choose me: As a business and event photographer I regularly work with companies, agencies and individual clients and understand what recruiters look for. My experience helps me portray people confidently in a professional context. I photograph in Hamburg and throughout Germany, adapting to your needs — from compact application sessions to larger corporate employee portrait projects. If you want an application photo that’s expressive, professional and true to you, get in touch for a non-binding consultation. I look forward to helping you make a great first impression.
