Andreas Schmitt Photographie

Application photos and business portraits are more than just images — they are your first, crucial impression. As an experienced business photographer focused on people photography (over 23 years), I create application photos that convey competence, personality and credibility in a clear and likeable way. My goal is that you recognise yourself in the images and feel confident presenting them. What sets my work apart is a calm, consultative approach. Before the shoot we discuss your career goals, the impression you want to make and the desired visual style — whether classic‑professional, modern‑clean or approachable‑friendly. In the studio I use professional lighting, various backgrounds and tasteful retouching so your photo performs well on CVs, career platforms and as a LinkedIn/Xing profile picture. My workflow is personal and transparent: we choose outfits and poses together, I offer clear but unobtrusive posing guidance and support you in creating natural expressions. After the session you receive your selection in a password‑protected online gallery for easy viewing, downloading and print orders. I can also prepare social media formats (LinkedIn, XING) and different layout versions on request. A professional makeup artist is optionally available for a full-service result — subtle, profession-appropriate make‑up often makes a difference for application photos. I also provide consistent team and staff portraits for corporate websites and communications: a unified visual style builds trust and strengthens your brand identity. In short: if you want an application photo or business portrait that goes beyond good lighting — offering consultation, experience and meaningful results — Andreas Schmitt Photographie is the right choice. Book a session and we’ll ensure your image becomes a powerful part of your professional presence.
