In October, I had the pleasure of doing a business portrait shoot with the wonderful Julia, who works as a mental and mindfulness coach. Our shoot first took place in a cosy studio in Vienna, where we created a relaxed atmosphere for some authentic and professional shots. Afterwards, a few photos in the fresh air in a nearby park were on the agenda, where we were gifted with awesome and soft autumn light – what a perfect ending for this day.

The time spent together was just wonderful, with an incredible amount of humour and mutual appreciation. For me, it was more than just a photo session – it was more like an exchange on a personal level, because Julia has not only been in front of my camera, but has also helped me a lot in my life so far. Her work as a coach is really something special and I am grateful that I was able to capture her for her business just the way she is.
