    Beauty Model Cologne

    A study of beauty, expression and subtle transformation.

    Intro

    Where Beauty Meets Expression

    A beauty editorial created in Cologne as part of the Pro Academy final production. A day focused on beauty, expression and transformation, bringing together two different looks — from timeless red lips and polished elegance to a softer, more natural aesthetic.

    The shoot

    In Front of the Beauty Lens

    Beauty photography is very different from many of the fashion and commercial shoots I had done before. With the camera so close, even the smallest movements, expressions and changes in posture can completely transform an image.

    During this beauty shoot in Cologne, I had the opportunity to explore facial expressions, eye movement and different angles in much more detail. It showed me how much beauty modeling is about subtlety rather than big poses — sometimes the smallest change creates the strongest photograph.

    THE FIRST LOOK

    THE SECOND LOOK

    A Softer Side of Beauty

    For the second look, the mood changed completely. Wet-look hair, softer makeup and dark styling created a much more natural and contemporary atmosphere.

    Working with two very different beauty concepts during the same production was particularly interesting for me as a model. Without changing the setting dramatically, small adjustments in hair, makeup, expression and posing created an entirely different feeling in front of the camera.

    THE EXPERIENCE

    Beauty Is in the Details

    What I took away most from this shoot was how important the smallest details are in beauty photography. The position of a hand, the direction of the eyes or a slight turn of the face can make an incredible difference.

    Being part of the Pro Academy final production in Cologne gave me another opportunity to develop my beauty modeling and experiment with a style of photography where expression and precision are at the center of every image.

  • Commercial Shooting for Trendbox in Berlin

    Commercial Shooting for Trendbox in Berlin

    JOURNAL · SEPTEMBER 2025

    TREND BOX · BERLIN

    Beauty, lifestyle and a box full of surprises – a colorful commercial production in Berlin.

    The shoot

    A Commercial Production for Trendbox

    The Trendbox Commercial Shoot Berlin was all about creating colorful, approachable images while keeping the products at the center of attention. For this production in Berlin, I worked with Trendbox, creating a series of lifestyle and product images featuring one of their colorful surprise boxes.

    The box brought together a mix of different products – from beauty and personal care to snacks, crunchy treats, desserts and other lifestyle discoveries. That variety made the shoot especially fun, because every setup could tell a slightly different story while still keeping the recognizable Trendbox concept at its center.

    THE CAMPAIGN

    Trendbox Commercial Shoot Berlin

    The Trendbox Commercial Shoot Berlin brought together everything I enjoy about commercial modeling: colorful products, different expressions and a playful atmosphere in front of the camera. Working with beauty, food and lifestyle products also meant adapting my posing to each setup while keeping the images natural and approachable. It was a fun opportunity to create versatile commercial content while keeping the recognizable Trendbox concept at the center of the campaign.

    THE TEAM

    Behind the Trendbox Shoot

    A commercial shoot is never just about what happens in front of the camera. Behind the images was a small team that made the entire day feel relaxed, creative and incredibly easy to work in.

    Alongside the photographer, the shoot was coordinated by the Trendbox team, who organized the production and guided us through the different setups and products throughout the day. From the first shots to the final images, the atmosphere on set was warm, positive and genuinely fun.

    For me, that always makes a difference. When the team behind the camera creates an environment where you feel comfortable, it becomes much easier to experiment, bring personality into the images and create those natural moments that commercial photography needs.

    The Trendbox Commercial Shoot Berlin was one of those productions where the good energy behind the scenes became part of the final result — and definitely a day I remember with a smile.
