As a portrait photographer focused on natural, empathetic images, Anja Wilbs also offers professional application photos and business portraits — subtle, authentic, for LinkedIn/Xing.
My passion is portrait photography — especially the bond between people and their animals. Since 2011 I capture genuine moments with empathy, calm and time, creating images that remain meaningful long after the shoot. I work with natural light and avoid artificial flash setups so the results feel honest and true to the moment. Business and application photography are not my main focus, but I take on business portraits and Bewerbungsfotos with the same care and attention. My business portraits suit people who want an authentic, approachable image for applications, LinkedIn or Xing. Years of experience working with both animals and people help me create a relaxed atmosphere in front of the camera — perfect if you feel uneasy at first. How I work: We start with a short consultation to clarify your goal (application, LinkedIn/Xing, website), discuss wardrobe and style, and choose a suitable location. I guide you calmly through the session, assist with posing and small details, and provide a personal online gallery for image selection. My retouching emphasizes natural, realistic results rather than heavy manipulation. Why choose me: You’ll receive more than a standard application photo — you’ll get a portrait that reflects your personality. I combine long experience in portraiture with empathy and a personal approach to make the shoot an enjoyable experience. I am primarily active in the Ruhrgebiet/NRW region and work flexibly to meet your needs. If you’re looking for a natural, professional application photo or business portrait and appreciate a personal process, I’d love to hear from you.
