Jan Stephan Hubrich

Jan Stephan Hubrich is a seasoned business photographer based in Cologne who combines technical skill with a concise visual language to make job applicants and professionals stand out. Working independently since 2002 from his studio in Köln-Ehrenfeld, he draws on a background in advertising, fashion and beauty photography to bring refined aesthetics to business and application portraits. Every assignment begins with a consultative briefing: what position, industry and impression are desired? From that brief Jan Stephan develops a clear image concept—often using sketches or moodboards—to ensure alignment between client expectations and photographic execution. Whether in-studio or on location, he creates a calm, focused shooting environment that helps even camera-shy clients appear natural and confident. This relaxed approach is particularly effective for application photos, LinkedIn and Xing profile images, and employee portraits where authenticity and professional presence matter. Jan Stephan can coordinate make-up artists and stylists from his network when the brief requires it. He usually handles post-production himself, from subtle retouching to precise color grading, ensuring the final images convey the agreed visual message and are ready for online profiles or printed application materials. Why choose him? Because Jan Stephan treats business photography as a planning-driven process—from concept and layout to shooting and final retouching. His advertising and beauty experience ensures application photos are not only technically excellent but also visually distinctive. If you need application photos, LinkedIn/Xing headshots or professional staff portraits in Cologne, Jan Stephan Hubrich offers tailored, high-quality solutions with personal guidance.
