Relaunch of the website of JF-Hochzeitsfotos

It's finally done, the website of Junge Fotografie - Wedding Pictures (www.jf-hochzeitsfotos.de) shines as of today in the new design.

preview: web- & mobile view

Please feel free to check it out!

During the redesign the site has been equipped with a responsive design and therefore can be easily viewed on mobile devices again. + Some new photos have been added to the gallery!

Thanks once again to all the wonderful bridal couples that I was allowed to accompany in my soon 11 years as a photographer. My special thanks goes to those who allowed me to use their photos to present my work to you! :-) Notice: At Junge Fotografie this is only possible with your written permission.

If, contrary to expectations, there are still some minor errors with some devices and/or browsers, I would be happy if you could let me know, so I can fix the problem.

Thank you and have fun with the new website!
Nina
 

Find the way to the job of your dreams...

... with application-portraits made by Junge Fotografie - Nina Hüttmann.

Under the title "Chancen geben und selbst dabei profitieren" (Provide opportunities and benefit from it") the Jobcenter Stormarn has placed an ad campaign at the Hamburger Abendblatt (17.01.2015) that presents both, 10 qualified applicants with their professional profiles, as well as showing how the Jobcenter can support businesses finding the right candidate.

translated ad-quote: Doris Ziethen-Rennholz (Managing director of the Job Center Stormarn)
"Companies that need staff, I would like to say: We support you in your human resources planning. So have a look at the small selection of our candidates, who are listed on this ad campain. They are so brave and give the job search 2015 a face. This should be reason enough to give them a chance to get them back in work!"

Even Junge Fotografie has played its part and photographed the portraits of the 10 candidates of this ad, as well as for their application papers.

Are you also looking for a (new) job and still need the appropriate application-portrait? Junge Fotografie helps you to present yourself optimally!

Do you have questions or would like to make an appointment, click HERE!

In addition, please follow this link: "The perfect Application-portrait" for more information about the way I work, which is probably one of the reasons why my portraits are appreciated by both, companies, as well as headhunters.

STIEFTOCHTER

"Wer die Zeit nicht erlebt, hat sie eh verschenkt" (quotation): STIEFTOCHTER invents German Urban Pop
 

photo 2013 by Nina Hüttmann

Stieftochter (stepdaughter) comes from near Hamburg, wrote her first lyrics with 11 and established a whole new style in her early 20's : Sprechgesang, which is not a rap, hard electro beats that are still pop, lyrics that are sexy and provocative without being suggestively and stupid. Her Urban Pop exudes an optimism that is too wise to tilt in inconsequential feel-good music. Together with her producer Sven Waje (Fettes Brot, Dendemann, Nneka) she has created songs that she uses to describe the world from the perspective of a young woman.

01.07.2014 | 20:00 | Uebel & Gefährlich, Feldstraße 66, Hamburg

Les Labiles - Live at Lál Pera

The Art Café Lál Pera (Hamburg, Germany) expanded its range of events and now presents since September 2013 every 1st Thursday of the month* new, young bands of different genres.

The start of this series was on 12.09.2013 with Les Labiles.

One in March 2011 by Juliane Kmieciak (guitar), Susan Falke (keys) and Sven Waje (guitar, producer) founded Hamburger Sophistipop band. The band has been complemented with Till Raether (bass) and Kilian Soldier (drums) in 2012 and this year finally completed by Carsten Ebert (guitar).

The interior of the Lál Pera was quickly filled with curious guests and Les Labiles who exclusively presented own songs immediately cast a spell over the audiance with their pop, albeit melancholic sounding, melodies. The atmosphere got even better from song to song and the calls for encores, the band gladly fullfilled their shackled and cheerful audience. An all around great concert event.  
Thank you ....

Les Labiles - Live at Làl Pera - 12.09.2013 HH - photos 2013 by Nina Hüttmann

The series is going to be continued on 07.11.2013 with Stieftochter ... be curious!
A foretaste of this artist (urban-pop) you can already get on Sunday, 13.10.2013 from 7 - 9 pm at Karostar (Hamburg) presented by Radio Energy - Hamburgs Hammer Bandnewcomer. Have fun, it's worth it .......

Smartphone optimisation of my websites

The mobile Internet has become indispensable for many people, but so far there are still many websites where it is very tedious to get the information you are looking for. The display is simply too small, a constant zooming is necessary to be able to navigate through all pages and read the information.
 
For this reason, I have modified my websites to provide easy navigation and the retrieval of all the information you need, even with small displays.

To make this for my customers possible, I integrated a configured theme for smartphones (+ iPhones) which is automatically displayed whenever the user retrieves my websites via handheld devices.

Please check it out and test it with your smart- or iPhones! If you recognise any problems, please give me some feedback, so I can fix these errors and make my "mobile" - websites possible for you to use correctly. Thanks a lot!

Nina

PS: Big "thank you" to freshlabs (digital agency from Hamburg / Germany), who always helps me with great advice and practical support to make my ideas come true.
 

Invited as a jury member to Berlin!

As part of the "Gründerwoche Deutschland" conducted by the German Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology there was again a photo contest this year, that is part of the "Global Entrepreneurship Week" (a global week of action for the promotion of entrepreneurship and business start-up) which takes place from the 12th to the 18th of November 2012.

The German preliminary round, which winning entries automatically participate in the international competition (organized by the University of Wismar), was conducted by the RKW Kompetenz Zentrum.

official poster - source: www.gruenderwoche.de

Title of the photo contest 2012: The Power of Imagination

The goal was to show in the photos and a brief accompanying text , what challenges and opportunities are part of entrepreneurial ideas. Young people aged 14 to 30 years from all over the world were able to participate.

The jury - session to dfind the Germans winner-photos took place of the 18th of September 2012 at the German Federal Ministry of Economics and Technology in Berlin, to which I (Nina Hüttmann - Junge Fotografie) was officially invited as a jury-member.

the day of the jury meeting

An interesting task, since I also started as an entrepreneurs, almost 8 years ago now, driven by the love for photography and full of anticipation to bring "Junge Fotografie" into life. So I know from personal experience what the path to professional independence means and what is all connected to it, as well as that it's not always easy. Many planning tasks have to be done, risks and costs have to be estimated and especially sometimes patience has to be practiced. But at the end there is the dream of owning your own business or work as a freelancer for which it is worth fighting for, minor setbacks are of course included. ;o)

The winners will be announced at the "Global Entrepreneurship Week", and receive their prizes, which are gift vouchers (1000, - € 500, - and € 250, - € in the German national final)  and cameras (of different price categories in the international competition).

I wish all participants the best of luck and sincerely congratulate the winners! --> More about the awards show HERE!

Photoshooting with Anja Frost

Anja Frost, who works nationwide among others in the field of stress management as a freelance trainer and coach since 2009, has booked me for portraits photos as visual support for her new website "Sexological Bodywork & the Art of flowing Pleasure", a few weeks ago. Since I already knew her from a "private" photo shoot a few years ago, where we understood very well right away, I was really looking forward to meet her again. 

The weather was great, the Elbstrand (Hamburg/Germany) was selected as photo-location and with her relaxed and openminded personality the shoot again became a very fun event, which is also reflected in the photos.

Anja Frost - photo © by Nina Hüttmann

The term "Sexological Bodywork" for me was something completely new and initially a little irritating, but it's an in the state of California (USA) already officially recognized profession that deals with body awareness, love of life and sexuality and includes the unusual combination of individually aligned bodywork & coaching, by which people can develop a more intense body-sensation and as a result find a more open way to themselves, their bodies and their sexuality.

Web-Launch: JF-Hochzeitsfotos

Due to the great number of jobs and inquiries as a wedding photographer, as well as the wonderful feedback from my customers, I've decided publish an independent website only for wedding photography.

And now it's done - www.jf-hochzeitsfotos.de - is online!

www.jf-hochzeitsfotos.de

I would also like to thank all my clients who have given me the opportunity to use their photos, whether online on my website or as print for my portfolio. THANK YOU!

And of course a big "thank you" to the guys of freshlabs (Agentur für Neue Medien, Hamburg) who always support me in all my projects and plans with great help and advice.

Note:  

Because I only have a certain number of internet-capable devices for testing available, feedback is very welcome to be able to fix yet undetected bugs and errors.

The perfect Application-Portrait

You are a young professional, want to get hold of your dream job or risk a career change?

To make this possible and to prevent your application get lost in the shuffle of your competitors, not only your resume and your references should have been carefully compiled, but also your portrait should leave a lasting impression. Sympathy and openness are the key words here, because it is intended to emphasize in your application, that YOU are the perfect candidate for the job.

photos © by Nina Hüttmann

The portrait therefore is your second card, which on one hand says something about you as a person and is on the other hand, to convince the viewer that you have all the attributes in order to perfectly fullfill the job and that you are able to self-conscious represent the company to the outside.

To make this possible I do not work in the way of a typical "passport photo - pattern" (sit down, smile and done), but I'm taking time. The perfect smile isn't always easy to show right away when trying to pose in an unfamiliar studio atmosphere.

photos © by Nina Hüttmann

Precisely for this reason I work by appointment only, so that we can work together without time pressure and in a relaxed atmosphere (without bystanders) to achieve the desired style.
And to give your photos the perfect finish, professional photo retouching is always included in my work.

My motto: "Quality, not Quantity"* and at surprisingly low prices! See for yourself!

For more information please click HERE (see price list) or contact me directly through my contact form. I look forward to meeting you!
