Foto Herkenrath - Werbefotografie

I’m André Herkenrath — a photographer based in Köln Porz with a clear focus on business photography. Application photos are more than just images: they communicate competence, personality and the right message to future employers or business contacts. As a specialist in business portraits, I create photos that deliver exactly that impact. Why choose me: I use professional equipment and a keen eye for detail to craft a visual identity that fits your target role. Whether it’s a classic application photo, a modern LinkedIn headshot or a compelling Xing profile picture — together we develop a concept that strengthens your professional presence. My approach values authenticity and poise over forced posing, highlighting your strengths in a natural way. My process is personal and straightforward. We start with a short, non-binding consultation to define goals, desired image style and the appropriate visual tone. In my studio in Köln Porz or on location if needed, I use lighting and composition to emphasize your character. I create a relaxed atmosphere so you can appear confident and natural in front of the camera — even if you feel nervous. Good application photos are target-oriented: I consider hairstyle, clothing, expression and framing to suit the industry and position you’re aiming for. For businesses, I also produce professional employee photos and business portraits that ensure a consistent corporate image. With a core focus on business and event photography, I understand the demands of professional presentation. I offer practical advice, craft purposeful image styles and deliver results that perform in applications and on professional networks. Contact me for a non-binding consultation — together we’ll put your portrait in the best light.
