chrisreiner Photography | CR Group

Hello — I’m Chris Reiner, Creative Director and photographer based near Hamburg, with a fully equipped studio in Pinneberg. As an experienced people- and business‑photographer I create application photos and business portraits that not only meet technical standards but clearly express professional personality and presence. Why choose me for your application photos: My background as a Creative Director and commercial photographer gives me a strategic eye — I photograph more than a face: I craft the message an image must deliver. Whether you need a classic application portrait, a modern LinkedIn or XING profile picture, or compelling employee headshots, I stage images to present you confidently in the professional arena. My approach is personal and relaxed. Before the shoot we discuss your target role, desired image tone and wardrobe. In my Pinneberg studio I use professional flash and continuous lighting as well as tailored backgrounds to create the exact look you need. If appropriate, I can also shoot on location to match your industry context. Equipment and post‑production: Beyond top‑quality capture gear I place great emphasis on careful image editing and retouching. Using Adobe Lightroom & Photoshop I refine color, contrast and skin tones and, if needed, adjust backgrounds so your photo performs in print and online. Final retouching is done in close agreement with you. I run shoots in a comfortable, guided way: clear posing direction, subtle assistance and an efficient flow. The result: natural, expressive business photos that give you confidence and speak to recruiters and colleagues alike. If you’re looking for strong application photos or professional LinkedIn/Xing profile images, get in touch or call me. I look forward to sharpening your professional image photographically.
