About
My name is Philipp Schmidt (* 1983) and I am a freelance photographer specialising in
Corporate Portraits & Visual Storytelling. I tell the stories of people and companies through images.
After growing up in the southern Black Forest and now live with my family in Hamburg.
I’m not interested in perfectly staged shots, but rather in people, situations and moments that feel genuine. I take the time to listen, build trust and wait for the right moment. This results in photographs that reveal personality, convey atmosphere and tell stories without being overt.
Whether it’s portraiture, reportage or corporate communications – my documentary approach combines clarity with intimacy, creating visual worlds that feel authentic and leave a lasting impression.
Tell me about your idea or project – I look forward to hearing from you!
