My name is Jeannette Matthies—and I came to photography later than most. All the better for it.

I specialise in creative business portraits, a field where I feel entirely at home, thanks to my extensive experience in large international corporations. I value working with and for people, capturing portraits where they truly belong—in their real-world environments.

Yet my heart beats fastest for architectural photography. Grand and extraordinary spaces fascinate me: the patience for perfect light, the stillness and clarity of a room—it is a dialogue with space, almost like meditation. In 2025, this work was awarded third place at the Architecture Photography Awards.

Travel is my second passion—or rather, a mindset, my family, and my driving force. I have circled the globe more than once, and for me, it is the finest education. I love discovering new cultures and returning brimming with fresh ideas.

 

Please note: I do not accept commissions where animals or nature are restricted or endangered in any way.

Collaborating with me means: no superficial solutions, but open exchange, and a genuine commitment to this creative work.
