Nielinger Fotografie und Gestaltung

As a specialist in business photography in Essen, Nielinger Photography & Design combines technical precision with a refined visual sensibility. For application photos and business portraits, an image must do more than look good — it must convey competence, authenticity and personality. That is where our strength lies. Why choose Nielinger? Christian Nielinger has worked for decades as a Dipl.-Kommunikationsdesigner (Diploma in Communication Design) and photographer, self-employed since 1989, bringing experience from industrial, architectural and corporate projects to every image. This solid, conceptual approach is particularly evident in application photography: we consider your profile photo as part of your professional presentation — from application photos to LinkedIn and Xing profile pictures. Our focus is on posture, expression, lighting and a coherent representation of your professional identity. Our approach is calm, respectful and goal-oriented. Before your appointment we briefly clarify your industry, role and the impression you want to make — serious, approachable, confident? In our Essen studio or, if required, on location, we create a relaxed atmosphere where natural, reliable images emerge. Technical care (lighting setup, camera choice, composition) meets understated direction so your personal expression remains front and center. What you can expect from us: precise image design, professional digital retouching in our own studio/lab, and final files ready to use in applications, CVs and business networks. Our equipment and experience with high-end systems guarantee image quality that convinces both in print and on profile pages. We do not treat application photos as a quick snapshot but as a small visual campaign for your professional appearance. Whether single shots for job applications or several variants for different platforms — we deliver images that look professional, credible and timeless. Get to know us and our eye for business portraits: in a personal conversation we develop the right visual language for your application and profile — locally rooted in Essen, conceptually grounded and crafted with technical precision.
