Simon Hengesbach Fotografie

With over six years of professional experience (four years self-employed), Simon Hengesbach brings a calm, refined approach to every application photo and business portrait. His style is minimalist and timeless: balanced compositions, natural light, and an image language that highlights personality without exaggeration. This makes his portraits particularly effective for job applications, LinkedIn and Xing profiles, and corporate staff photography. Why choose Simon for your application photo? He treats business portraits as focused visual storytelling rather than simple documentation. His images convey professionalism and authenticity — modern and polished without appearing overly stylized. That balance helps you make a strong first impression in recruitment processes and on professional platforms. Simon’s working method is calm and directive. In his studio near Düsseldorf he creates a relaxed environment where even people who are new to being photographed quickly feel at ease and present. Through clear guidance on posture, expression and eye contact, natural and self-assured images emerge — often within minutes. Technically he relies on clean lighting and neutral backgrounds that keep the focus on you. The process is practical and efficient: a short pre-shoot conversation about your goals (industry, desired look, intended use), a brief on-set orientation, guided posing and immediate review of results. Variants — from formal to smart-casual — can be produced so you have the right image for different applications. Simon works with individuals, career starters and companies needing coherent staff imagery. His strength lies in combining precise visual sensibility with a considerate, human approach — resulting in application photos that communicate competence and character. If you want an application photo that clearly expresses your professionalism and personality, Simon Hengesbach has the experience and visual eye to deliver.
