Andreas Lübberstedt - Fotografie

As an experienced business and portrait photographer based in Hamburg, I view application photos as far more than a simple headshot: they are your first professional statement. My approach combines over 30 years of photographic work for newspapers and magazines with a sensitive, people‑centered portrait style. The result are application photos that clearly convey competence, personality and professionalism. Why choose me: I work as an engaged, attentive photographer who builds trust quickly and guides even camera‑shy clients with calm expertise. My studio in St. Pauli — located in a former bakery — creates a relaxed setting where natural expressions and convincing presence emerge. With a background in journalistic photography and photo editing, I understand the importance of a precise, striking first impression both online and on paper. What makes my approach special: I blend technical mastery with a keen sense for light, shadow and expression. Each session starts with a short consultation: what job or industry are you targeting, and which tone should your profile communicate (formal, approachable, creative)? I then coach posture, gaze and facial expression, select lighting setups and apply tasteful retouching so your photos remain authentic yet polished. How the session works: You can visit my studio or opt for an on‑location shoot at your workplace. I take the time to create several variations — classic application shots, relaxed business portraits and formats tailored to LinkedIn/XING. After you choose the images, I deliver files optimized for web profiles and print. My passion for portrait photography drives me — projects and exhibitions like “Väter” and “Altona handgemacht” reflect my interest in people and character. If you want application photos that are clear, honest and effective, get in touch. Together we’ll create a professional profile picture that opens doors.
