Bettina Meister - photographer

I am Bettina Meister, a freelance photographer and journalist. I was born in Gräfelfing near Munich in 1969 and live in Stuttgart, Germany.

As a photographer, I work with persons, with humans, and not only with my camera. Approaching people openly, taking an interest in them, quickly grasping situations, capturing the right moment: that's how I photograph. I remain in the background, giving my appreciation and respect to the people in front of my lens.

My sensitive photographs show the world from a perspective full of appreciation and respect. They invite you to rediscover the beauty of everyday details. 

I am committed to photography that combines a distinctive approach, sensitivity and an exceptionally keen eye for genuine moments. My visual style is characterised by authenticity, emotional intimacy and a strong narrative visual language.

My professional life as a photographer began with concert photography.

Photography has been part of my professional life since 1992, when I was a student. After holding senior marketing roles at international companies, I set up my own PR and advertising agency in 2005. However, it was not until 2017 that I set up my own business as a professional corporate photographer.

My clients benefit from my extensive marketing experience with international market leaders when it comes to developing visual language and imagery.

Corporate Photos

My authentic photos tell stories in an appreciative way.

I photograph people with great respect – unposed, atmospheric and yet precisely composed. My images often appear to be spontaneous encounters, yet they always deliberately tell stories full of character, atmospheric lighting and depth.

My portrait, reportage and travel photography, in particular, thrive on my ability to make even the most unassuming moments appear visually extraordinary.

I want to make other people happy with my photographs and help companies succeed. The best thing for me is when I can see the sparkle in people's eyes as soon as they see my photographs. 

I look forward to taking photographs for you. Please feel free to call me on +49 172 9393527 or send your enquiry by email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it..
