Namely the conversations you have during a portrait production. Especially in B2B, it’s exciting to find out who the person being portrayed actually is and what makes them tick. Beyond the appearance, which of course you should always keep in mind, you have to look good afterwards.

With Dr. Ortwin Weltrich, it was particularly intense in a way, because we were in his house, the Cologne Chamber of Crafts, of which he is the managing director, on a rather quiet day. And if you can really get involved with each other, good pictures come out of it.

It was also a certain honor to be able to portray him, because 15 years ago the head of a chamber of crafts would never have booked someone who didn’t belong to his chamber.
