Whether you are perceived as professional, approachable or convincing depends largely on your portrait photo, which is why it shouldn't be just any picture. But one that suits you. One that suits you. To your attitude. To what you do. We at Schepers Photography create business portraits that make exactly that visible - authentic, professional and without staged moments.
Business portraits: More than just a face
What makes a good business portrait? It's not the light alone, not the camera or the background. It's the combination of people and atmosphere. A portrait that creates trust doesn't just show what someone looks like - it shows how someone thinks. How someone works. How someone meets others.
A good business portrait is not just about technology, it's about communication. Our aim is to make it clear in a picture what you stand for. Without big words, but with an authentic effect.
The context plays a major role here: a portrait for a law firm has different requirements to that of a start-up. The expression, the clothing, the format - we work with you to tailor all of this to your purpose. Our aim: portraits that work in the long term - not just as a mandatory image, but as a visual calling card.
In this article, we explain why professional photos of employees still have a huge impact on the public image of your company. TO THE ARTICLE
Areas of application: Where a good business portrait counts
Professional portraits are needed everywhere today - not just on career sites. They are part of your positioning. Part of your brand. Part of your public image.
LinkedIn, Xing & Co: Present yourself professionally, approachably and clearly positioned - instead of with an old vacation photo or an application photo from 2014.
Website & "About us" pages: People buy from people. A convincing business portrait ensures that visitors are interested in your services - and don't keep scrolling.
PR, speaker profiles & media appearances: Especially in press relations, a good photo often determines placement and perception.
Application & internal communication: Portraits can also have an impact in recruiting or onboarding - professionally, but without distance.
Our customers come from a wide range of industries - from consulting companies in Mannheim about IT start-ups in Heidelberg up to sole traders in Ludwigshafen. They are all united by the desire to show themselves as they are - professionally and without masquerade.
This is how a business portrait shoot works
We always start with a short conversation. Nothing complicated, but important: What is the aim of the photo? How and where will it be used? What do you want to convey - and what explicitly not?
Then we look for the right setting together. This can be done in our studio at Römerberg The event can be held on site at your company, outside or in a reduced room with a neutral background. The important thing is that you feel comfortable. Because that's what you'll see later in the picture.
We take our time. No hectic pace, no assembly line, no staged scenes. If it's your first time in front of the camera or you feel insecure: no problem. We work calmly, with experience - and in such a way that the end result is exactly the picture that shows you in the best light, without it looking "done".
Portrait photography for Mannheim, Heidelberg, Ludwigshafen & surrounding area
We work in the entire Rhine-Neckar region - including Mannheim, Heidelberg and Ludwigshafen, Speyer, Frankenthal and of course around our Römerberg location. Whether you are an individual in need of a professional portrait for your website or a company planning uniform images for your entire team: we will come to you - or welcome you at a suitable location.
Thanks to our experience on location, we know which environment works, where which light is effective and how to create a calm, professional setting even in complex rooms. This results in photos that you don't have to explain - because they speak for themselves.
What you get from us
After the shoot, you will receive a targeted selection - not hundreds of variations, but the best images, professionally and sensibly selected. We edit discreetly: no filters, no smoothing, no effects. Just clear colors, clean contrasts, a strong expression.
The images are directly available to you - for your website, social media, application documents or for your next media appearance.
And if new portraits are added later - for other employees or a new positioning, for example - we build on this. Over time, this creates a visual language that fits your brand.
