About Jürgen – Corporate Photographer in Cape Town
Experienced, Bilingual, and Client-Focused
Experienced, Bilingual, and Client-Focused
I’m Jürgen Banda-Hansmann, a professional corporate photographer based in Woodstock, Cape Town. Since founding Jürgen’s Photography in 2007, I have helped businesses enhance their visual presence through high-impact corporate headshots, dynamic event coverage, and strategic branding imagery.
With over 17 years of dedicated experience and 25+ years living in the Mother City, I bring deep local insight and technical precision to every shoot. I am also a native German speaker, allowing me to comfortably assist both local and international clients.
Consultation: We start with an in-depth conversation or site visit to understand your brand context.
Tethered Shooting: For headshots and branding, I utilise tethered shooting. This allows us to review images together in real-time on a laptop, ensuring we capture the perfect shot before the session ends.
Relaxed Environment: I create a comfortable atmosphere that allows genuine personalities to shine—crucial for authentic corporate portraits.
My fascination with photography began at age six in Germany. This passion evolved into a professional pursuit during my university studies and led to the founding of Jürgen’s Photography in Cape Town in 2007.
What drives me? It’s the “wow” moment when a client sees their portrait and realizes how professional they look. It is knowing that capturing the “small things” can genuinely change how a business is perceived.
ased in Cape Town for over 25 years, I find constant inspiration in the city’s energy. When I’m not behind the camera or editing in my Woodstock studio, you’ll find me running (occasionally a half marathon) or baking.
