Customer feedback
First-hand: what customers experience
"Thanks to her many years" experience working for renowned agencies , Katrin brings a deep understanding of professional photo shoots.

Weaknesses & Opportunities
Anyone can take photos – but only a few can use business and product photography to raise a brand’s profile
Unfortunately, this happens quite often
Due to time and budget constraints, many companies resort to using stock photos. This can sometimes be useful, but it’s embarrassing when customers have long since recognised the image from other brands – and that’s exactly how your brand loses its authenticity.
Photos are taken or chosen spontaneously, with no particular theme. Each image stands on its own, without an overarching concept – this means that, in the long run, a recognisable visual identity for your brand will not emerge.
Your photos don't tell a story. The selected images depict a wide variety of situations, places and faces – rather than a coherent narrative, the result is a loose collection of individual motifs.
A single photo shoot is usually used up within a few weeks. Then, suddenly, there’s a lack of fresh content – and the process of finding a date for another shoot, which is often expensive, starts all over again.
Here’s how we’ll sort it out
We create visual concepts that truly reflect who you are and your brand. It takes just 50 milliseconds to decide whether a website appears trustworthy, as Lindgaard and colleagues demonstrated back in 2006.
A branding project – or at the very least, using the same photographer for all your content – creates a consistent theme.According to Lucidpress and Marq, a consistent brand presence increases turnover by an average of around 23 per cent.
Multiple images from a single content day convey your story across all channels. 42.3 per cent of companies cite content creation as their biggest hurdle, according to the ZHAW 2025 study – we can solve it in a single day.
With unlimited usage rights, your content will remain relevant for many months. A Bazaarvoice study shows that 54 per cent of Germans tend to rely on professional photographs when making purchasing decisions.
Project process
The three main phases: Research, concept & realisation
Every project follows a clear three-step process: research, concept and implementation. We start by gaining an understanding, translate our findings into a viable concept and then bring it to life. The The research will take a week, that Two-week plan and the Implementation takes between one and five weeks, depending on the scope. The end result is outcomes that work and can be put to use.
Research: Discover & Define
Discover and Define are combined here. Once we have gathered all the relevant information, we carry out an analysis. The aim is for both sides to reach a shared understanding of the direction we are heading in: in terms of content, visuals and strategy. The result is a clear concept before the design phase begins.
Concept: Design & Develop
First, the rough concept is developed in the Design phase, featuring initial layouts or sample visualisations. Once this presentation has been approved, the Develop phase begins: the design is worked out in detail, systems are refined and details are clearly defined. The idea is transformed into a robust, workable solution.
Implementation: Deliver & Document
Here are Deliver and Document consolidated. The individual results are finalised and handed over. Depending on the project and requirements, templates are created, assets are incorporated, content is added, the material is produced or printed, and/or everything is set out in a set of guidelines. The aim is to achieve a Ready-to-use, clean end result.
